About the project

When creating several renderings with the same HDRI, it can be difficult to restore the exact HDRI rotation from a successful test rendering. The Spherenmerker solves exactly this problem. The tool enables flexible HDRI rotation and offers 15 save slots that store both the rendered image and the exact HDRI position. After rendering, a single click on one of the numbered buttons is enough to save the result. The numbered buttons allow quick comparisons of different HDRI positions. With a single click, the preferred setting can be restored — ideal for coordination with photographers or art directors who want to see different lighting variations.
