Utopia Labs & it's Skydome

vicster56

Hey,

Just purchased Stonemason's Utopia Labs. When I render the scene it's pretty much black. What can I do with the skydome, if anything? I've done some research but can't really find anything to resolve the issue but turn off the skydome.

 

Thanks!!

I guess you are rendering in Iray?
Just delete the sky dome and add an HDRI as environment map.
You can head over to https://polyhaven.com/hdris/skies and grab some free ones. Or can use any one you may already have.
