Hello

Here is a tutorial I made to show how to use Spherical Harmonics in XSI for HDR Image Based Lighting.

Spherical Harmonics offer a result close to Final Gather and the render time is often really faster.

When merged in a same pass with Ambient Occlusion, you can have Final Gather look for less than 2 seconds more on AO render time.

If you have any question about this tutorial, just ask me !

Have a nice IBL day !
