This tool was written for internal use at Moso Studio, with the purpose of streamlining the process of working with HDR files.
QES will allow you to streamline your lighting  process and many additional things very quick like:

  • Locate the sun to match azimuth and elevation depending on Time and world location (similar to a Daylight system but within the script)
  • Save scene states to quickly store lighting setups and reload them at any time. 
  • Quick access to your specific HDR libraries (you can set up your local file locations)  
  • A search of keywords like (sunny, cloudy etc, or a specified by user) 
  • Use Corona/Vray Sky instead of HDR when prefered  
  • Add a quick floor plane for rendering assets quickly 
  •  Design to work with Vray and Corona

Hi, glad you like it. There

Hi, glad you like it.
There isn't much difference between them.. quick selects are faster as is one click and you can name it whatever you wish... Favorites I rarely use.. may be removing it for next iteration.

So the 12 directories are for direct access to specific libraries... If you have too many hdri all together in the dynamic search may be hard to find a specific one... I only have 6 or 7 directories added...

Search option is only on master folder yes.

Thanks for pointing the issue, will get to it as soon as I can.

Thanks again for feedback

Thx

Useful script thx for sharing it.
I got some points :
- What the deffiernce between (Quick Selects) and (favorites) .
- Why adding 12 Directories when you can use dropdownlist to switch between all Directories in the (Master HDRI Directory).
- Search Option do the search in all drivers I think it's better if it search in Master Folder only.

- there is error message when pressing (Corona/Vray Sky) 2 times.
BEST REGARDS.
