What is Greyscalegorilla HDRI Link & Why Would You Need It?

 

The CINEMA 4D geniuses over at Greyscalegorilla have created another fantastically useful plugin for all you CINEMA 4D users out there – HDRI Link.

HDRIs are the most popular and some would argue the best way to light your scene in CINEMA 4D. However, to get the right look you may have to experiment with dozens of different HDRIs to find the one that suits your project. This can be a time consuming process especially if you’re using one of the many third party renderers for C4D such as Octane or Arnold. HDRI Link from Greyscalegorilla makes the process as easy as one click.

HDRI Link comes with 20 HDRIs and is expandable to over 300 with the Greyscalegorilla HDRI Expansion Packs. If you’re a professional I’d recommend the HDRI Link Suite, which includes all the expansion packs plus you save $135. If you also buy through Toolfarm you can get an additional 5% off.
