"Bryce 7 Pro Spherical Mapper" vs "Bryce 7 Pro Scene Converter"

Ryselle-Ryssa

Hello there!

Goal: Using a complete Scene from Bryce as an hdri Envoirment in DAZ Studio 4.10 (Render-Settings → Editor → Engine NVIDIA Iray → Envoiroment → Envoirment Map).

Question: There seem to be two plug-ins that could do this. Bryce 7 Pro Spherical Mapper and Bryce 7 Pro Scene Converter. Have you worked with one of these? What are the differences and which one would you reccomend?

Thank you in Advance!

Remy_Zeno - the Scene Converter creates panoramas in the angular map projection and those cannot be used in Studio. The Spherical Mapper creates a panorama in the spherical projection and it can be used in Studio. There are two different panorama lenses because Bryce 6 can only use angular maps and Bryce 7 can use angular maps and the spherical projection. Most 3D programs can use panoramas in the spherical projection. So the short answer is: Spherical Mapper, NOT Scene Converter.
