Arnold 2.1.1 and HDRI Link $ HDR Light Studio

I am testing Arnold 2.1.1 for cinema c4d. Everytime I want to use HDR Light Studio I have to reconnect the render HDR file. How can I solve this problem.

Hi Stonald! HDRI Studio Rig is not compatible with Arnold. For Arnold users, we recommend using HDRI Link. You can learn more about it here. https://greyscalegorilla.com/downloads/hdri-link-suite/

Thanks!

Hi Chad,

I am quite aware that HDRI Studio Rig is not compatible with Arnold. I however use HDRI Link and HDR Light Studio in version 2.0.2 but when I upgrade to Arnold 2.1.1, HDRI Link is not compatible. Is it the issue with my computer, if not have you tried upgrading your Arnold Render to 2.1.1 and is it linking properly to HDRI Link?

Regards,

Stonald Kuphunda.

Sounds like a version issue. Make sure you are running HDRI Link v1.053 which is available in our customer area. https://greyscalegorilla.com/account/ In the future, you may get faster tech support response by going through regular GSG Support channels or emailing support@greyscalegorilla.com

Thanks!

Seem like a version issue that you can't drop Color to HDRI Link tag anymore. You should link to File parameter in Color > Texture setting. Which seems to be a weird workflow.

Then how one link HDR Light Studio since is supposed to link automatically?

Message 8 of 10

It never was an automatic, before Arnold 5 you needed to drop a Color to Link, but not you need to drop Texture>File to Link. I think it might be a bug or a workflow changed cuz of new api in Arnold 5.
