        @Krass, just as a sanity check, you are not changing the name right, and not the component definition name?

          ok, sorry, Indeed, I changed the component name and the instance name... thanks. Perfect, I'll test it.
          However, I don't understand. I set the HDR definition to 8k, and it seems that it doesn't take this definition into account. I'll redo the rendering after downloading the map from the site.

                To clarify, updating the PolyHaven HDRI size will change the size of the textures after a restart:

                I will not update the HDRI images/textures you are currently using in your scene. You can check the actual size here, but I should also display the HDRI size more prominently in the UI.

                If you want to use the larger size, reapply the HDRI later.

                I hope that clarifies things!

                    Mike Amos Thanks,
                    I'll have a hard time understanding your joke "Change one thing and you get a call from Sister Carol. Not something for the faint-hearted..." because I'm French and my level of English is limited. But thank you for this feedback.
                    It's true that the result of "arranged" renderings ends up producing standardized photographic images (I'm thinking of this couple in this image; it looks like an advertising brochure for real estate development), but it's perfect for my clients.
                    I'm very happy, thanks to AI, to be able to use Rayscaper as a complete rendering engine (characters and vegetation). I find the quality of the rendering engine equal to Vray, but simpler.

                      Thanks for the details
                      In truth, I think I'm on the wrong line for the choice of HDRI size definition. I'm confusing it with the size of the textures... sorry for the messages above

                        Here's a version with an HDRI map background
                        But I'm trying to make a "studio" render for a friend, and Sketchup crashes when I change the image resolution during rendering. I set it to 300x400 and double-scaled it twice, and it crashed both times. Should I send a crash report?
