The irradiance map viewer can be used to view, merge, and save irradiance map files created by V-Ray.


Overview


The Irradiance Map viewer tool allows you to navigate around a 3D projected version of a scene to view where GI samples were taken during the rendering process.

The viewer is a separate program and does not require the V-Ray host application (Maya, 3ds Max, MODO, etc.) to be running.
