I want to use HDRI images but without an embedded sun because my systems that i use will provide the sun, but it seems all the siste that give free HDRI images, all the images havee the Sun embedded into them. what to do? thanks

 

Here's a sample of the site hdri-skies.com, you see they all have the sun and the systems that i use are like HDRP lightbox 2, which has a Sun prefab for a Day night cycle which makes it's own Sun to cycle around, so it doesn't make sense to have a sun embedded in the image

    I think we have something in DAZ Store, try night HDR in search. Have in Unity Store too.

    My prediletion, about it, on DAZ Store, is from Orestes: https://www.daz3d.com/orestes-iray-hdri-skydomes--night-storms

    the sun in the HDR is used to light the scene.

    remove it and it will be darker with no defined shadow because it is image based lighting 

    but since that is actually what you want providing your own sun editing the HDR would be the solution 

    I often edit them in Gimp for various reasons mostly to remove unwanted elements like people and buildings using cloning and heal brushes a sun should be easy to clone sky or a cloud over.
