How to get higher resolution environment map reflections

[bkeenan]

Heya @looeee, thanks for the reply. I think code for the whole scene would add a lot of noise?

Yes my cube material looks like this:

var material = new MeshStandardMaterial({
    color: 0xffffff,
    metalness: 1,
    roughness: 0
});

Based on the below links, is there maybe a hardcoded resolution limit for reflections? If that’s the case it would be great to be able to configure it somehow.

PMREMGenerator resolution settings

Is there a way to set the resolution for the PMREM generated texture? I saw that in previous versions, this was possible but taken out due to performance issues. Since, that was in 2016 I’m wondering if anything changed here? The most interesting aspect for me is the mipmap resolutions, since the low resolution is very apparent with refraction: [image] Equirectangular [image] PMREM Source I tried changing const LOD_MAX = 8; to a higher value and this resulted in a larger texture resolut…

Environment Map Quality Problem

+1 on this issue Goal is to use an HDR equirectangular texture as the envMap to obtain physically correct lighting on a model while also having the scene.background use the same HDR equirectangular texture except that the background should be bigger than 256x256 so it looks hi-res. When using an original hdr texture as the scene.background, the texture is hi-res but the issue is it appears to be fixed in the viewport. So when you use orbit controls, it appears that the model and scene is rotat…
