UI Path: ||Render settings window|| > Corona > Scene Environment tab
Scene environment
Override whole environment – Allows you to set a custom scene environment; it overrides any currently used native C4D environment. Using 8-bit images (JPG, PNG, etc.) is recommended to avoid fireflies.
It is recommended to use a Corona Light material with the Emit light option turned off.
Environment overrides
The following option allows you to use separate environment overrides for direct visibility, or for reflection/refraction. Using 8-bit images (JPG, PNG, etc.) is recommended to avoid fireflies.
Available override options are:
Direct visibility override – When enabled, the shader or texture map next to this checkbox will be used as an override for the environment map visible directly from the camera.
Reflection override – When enabled, the shader or texture map next to this checkbox will be used as an override for the environment map and it will be only visible in reflections.
Refraction override – When enabled, the shader or texture map next to this checkbox will be used as an override for the environment map and it will be only visible in refractions.
It is recommended to use a Corona Light material with the Emit light option turned off.
Volume
Global volume – When enabled, the material placed next to this checkbox is used as the global volumetric medium for the scene. Useful for simulating fog or aerial perspective.
Outline
Global outline material – When enabled, the Outline Material can be used as an environment override to all the objects in the scene.
Include/Exclude List – From the list, you can further control which objects are affected by the Outline Material.
Include Children – When enabled, children objects are affected by the Include/Exclude list.
