[hjl67936945]

Hi there,

I wonder how to use hdri 360° images as background in substance stager.

There is no way to use hdr files.

Please give me a hint.

Thanks

Please review this where you can find following point: 
Environment light

An environment light is a panoramic HDR image that is projected spherically around the scene.

Panoramic image input to the environment light.

Environment | Substance 3D Stager (adobe.com)

You can also import your image in panel as spherical ponorama.

Hi @hjl67936945! HDR and HDRI can be loaded into Stager as an environment background. There are a couple of ways to add them to your Stager scene:

Method one

Drag and drop the HDR or HDRI into the viewport.

Select environment in the scene panel.

Click on the background tab in the properties panel.

Set environment background opacity to 100% and Environment background blur to 0%.

Method two

Select environment in the scene panel.

Click on lights tab in the properties panel.

Drag and drop the HDR or HDRI onto the image thumbnail.

Click on the background tab in the properties panel.

Set environment background opacity to 100% and Environment background blur to 0%.

Once imported in, you can change the intensity and rotation of the image under environment lights section in the lights properties panel
