    A must-have, for sure. One of the essential Blender addons. Takes some time to understand all the combinations but that's because it's finely designed. Epic.

    I have been working with this product for a month. While the results can be stunning, it's quirky and can be unreliable. While there is an active GitHub conversation, I don't get the impression that the creators are on top of these issues, and if they are they're not doing a good job of communicating what's being done to help this product live up to its promise, especially given its relatively high price. At this point I consider my purchase an investment in better things to come.

    I really like this add on, but the constant (somewhat unpredictable) crashing takes a lot of the value out of it. If you are working with non-trivial scenes, this can turn in to a real headache. I'm hoping the developers can commit to a timeline to fix this product - especially given the price. If they do, I'd be happy to give this 5 stars.

      Hi Matthew, Thank you for your feedback!
      Our version 1.5.x has fixed the "somewhat unpredictable" bug that took us an unpredictably long time to solve. But in the process, our product, in many ways, got better :)
      Please give it another go.

    Just a fantastic addon, a must-have for archviz, very flexible and intuitive, and the Last updated with Clouds is just a Gift for our renderings! Tks Dudes

    I'm running Blender 3.0 and ever since I install this, it crashes a lot, at first I was using the latest beta version, now I downloaded 1.3.2 and it still crashes, I'd implemented it on old scenes and swapped out the original hdri, and it crashes like every 3rd render, I run a Asus G14 with a GTX2080, I like to not refund this. cause when it is good, it's beautiful.

      Hi Victor,
      Thank you for your feedback! With the stable version (1.3.x), a crash shouldn't occur. Could you please provide more details in our Discord #help chat (https://discord.gg/wvzPVzj9Vr), and we'll try to help you out with this? Regarding the 1.4.x-beta version crash, we're working hard to fix this ASAP. Currently, the addon is being modified in a way that should make it more robust, allow better management of worlds and make it more stable.

    It is amazing. I love the looks of my scenes now. I can't wait to make more. The only complaint I have is it doesn't have the moon, lol. Great product though!

    After 20+ years of struggling with sky plugins and hdri's this plugin is truly a joy. Hands down the best, most artist friendly thing I've used.
    To top it off, the creator is fantastic as well! I was having troubles on Christmas Day and emailed him and he emailed me the solution back within hours. On Christmas Day!?!? He so rocks. :P

    Absolute must have. The lighting looks phenomenal and can really breathe life into your renders. The new clouds look great, looking forward to them coming out of beta! I also seem to have the occasional crashes unless i lock the interface on this (beta) version, but an easily fixable issue for an otherwise flawless addon.

    I absolutely love this plugin! Amazing results and very easy to use/animate! I was experiencing some severe crashes but someone here in this comment thread suggested locking the interface before rendering and that completely saved my life! So thanks to that person. Other than that and a few minor bugs I could not recommend this plugin more.
