Were the default sky's always this low res or is there something wrong with my version?

Hey, just booted up toolbag 2.0.8, haven't launched it in a while, the default skies seem really low res and pixelated. Did they always look like this or is there something wrong with my mine? I seem to remember them being much crisper than this? I don't have the sky set to any blurring.

Yeah most of the default skies are pretty low res, I think 1024x512 or so or maybe smaller for some of them. What you've got here matches what I'm seeing on my Macbook Pro and PC. The garage sky especially is quite low res.

If you go to our Pano page you can find a couple free samples at 8x4k which should look a lot better: http://www.marmoset.co/panos

Otherwise, play with the sky blur to get something more pleasing.

Dang okay, I love that garage sky, anyone got the source at full rez?

Gordon Robb

isnt' it just because you have 'backdrop blur' not set to zero?

malcolm

Yeah, but I swear when I used to set blur to zero it was nice and crisp.

EarthQuake

The blur value only applies when the backdrop mode is set to blur, so the setting doesn't make a difference in this case.
