Thanks Rakesh!

How do you fix a blurry/low quality custom HDRI in d5? I have used different file size of an hdri. But d5 custom hdri is always blurry/low quality background.

[@andychristoforou]

What resolution are you using for your HDRIs?

[@lmltn]

@ I used 2k up to 8k files from polyhaven but the background is blurred/low quality. Especially if the HDRI have buildings at the background, though you can't notice the issue if its just clear skies hdri. Thanks

So I did a test, yes it looks blurry in editor but when you render it's full quality! Just used the noemotion hdris, 15000x7500px. It's blurry for the sake of performance in the editor!

which do you prefer geo and sky or hdrı two of beautiful :)

[@andychristoforou]

@@UlviDemir-x4t Usually I'm in the HDRI camp! Sometimes that happens because of the AI atmosphere tool generating a cool HDRI for me. It really depends on the project though, I wouldn't limit yourself to one or the other, once you play around with both long enough you begin to see the pros and cons of each setup!
