Uber Compatible HDRI...and IRAY?

So, there are a number of products like this: http://www.daz3d.com/country-day-hdri-le which are designed for use with Uber Shaders. Does anyone know if they will work with IRAY?

    Without looking at them it would be hard to say...technically, to work properly in UEnv they should have been run through a script to prep them.  But not all the ones around have been.

    If the little inserts in some of the promo images are the actual HDR images, then I'd say there is a good chance they will, although I'm not sure if they will be high enough resolution to also serve as a backdrop (that set does include 16k images so that should be good enough).

    OK. Thanks for the input. I think I'll pass for the time being. I wasn't super excited about the lack of additional images to show what the other backgrounds look like anyway, so on the off chance it won't work, I guess it's best not to take changes. I've spent too much as it is. I'm still holding out that they'll offer some G2 pro packages for crazy deals, lol.

    If you are looking for some HDRIs that will work...the link in my sig has a long list.  The ones at HDRIHaven (Greg Zaal) are pretty nice and there is a free set of hi-res ones that work well for lighting and backdrop.  Plus he has a bunch of smaller/low res ones that work great for lighting (and the hi-res versions of them are pretty cheap).  There are several others that are also very good...maximeros has some nice interiors.
