Alternative to cmft studio for convolving environment maps?

poopipe

Hello, 

Cmft studio is wonderful and all that but the UI is a clusterfudge and it's really starting to do my head in. 

Is there anything else out there for processing HDR IBLs that can both convolve and convert from panorama to cube map and back again. 

It can be commercial, even expensive but it does need to be good

I've been using IBL Baker.

It only outputs to dds cube.

One bug... output filename must contain .dds extension or it won't save files.

Good results though ime.

Ill give it a look but really I need panoramic map processing and support for. HDR/.EXR etc.

I really don't want to have to write a front end for cmft studio myself

It pulls in my equirect HDR files just fine.

That looks ideal.. Time to dust off the old expense form then...
