HDRI was several lessons ago, it was turned off since first or second lesson. Anyways, end of your first paragraph might explain some of my issue. I understood HDRI didn’t cast shadow but affecting light probes…perhaps. I can get onboard with that (edit) but HDRI was turned off. Just the other lights causing problems then, just not sure what the other lights are if not Area, Point, Spot and Sun. I don’t remember any prior lesson talking about Mesh Lights as a source. It’s been either Area, Sun, Spot and Point was added later.
so we’re calling all the light (shapes) Lamps? as in Area, Point, Spot and Sun. Ok good. Just seems like “HDRI and Mesh light” are coming out of left field for me. I’ll leave it be. Maybe the end of the lesson will make sense. I’ve only just seen it once at this point. I need to see it again, a few more times.
Thank you
