Notes

  • Name your camera with the prefix "DS_" and have it end in a number.

    • Example:

      • DS_myCameraName_001

  • We accept equirectangular (spherical) maps with an image aspect of 2:1.

    • ​We do not accept cube maps at this time.

  • Cameras should not look up or down

    • Cameras must be parallel to the ground with no rotation in the y-axis. Be sure to eliminate all y-axis rotation in your cameras BEFORE you render 🤗!
