The HDR Sun and Sky add-on is a fully-featured outdoor lighting solution for Blender, providing you with total control over outdoor lighting and weather conditions. You can control every important parameter, from the height and rotation of the sun to the amount of cloud cover. That's right, unlike any other Sun and Sky system this one has fully controllable photorealistic clouds!

The HDR Sun and Sky add-on provides 10 different levels of cloud cover, as well as a pure blue sky. You can choose from a few little puffy clouds in an otherwise sunny sky, all the way to overcast and everything in between, it's incredibly flexible and powerful.

With the HDR Sun and Sky add-on you will be able to art-direct your natural lighting needs to suit any situation. If your client says on Monday that they want an early afternoon feel, but then decides on Tuesday that what they really want is light cloud cover, you can alter the lighting to suit their changing whims with a couple of sliders. And of course the HDR Sun and Sky add-on also gives you the power to be as whimsical as the most difficult client, with every permutation of natural lighting available to you at any time.

You can create any mood you like, from a clear early evening to a cloudy midday, perfect for architectural renders at different times of day.

The HDR Sun and Sky add-on is a really great way to achieve beautiful and realistic outdoor lighting quickly: load the add-on, adjust the parameters to your liking, and your scene is ready to render. It's simple and it's fast.

The HDR Sun and Sky add-on is very lightweight on resources, streaming the HDR images off disk for fast load times, and so can be used without fear of it slowing your scenes down. When using the add-on you have the choice of 3 different image resolutions (512, 4k, and 16k) so that you can use fewer resources when tweaking and then increase the resolution for your final render.

The add-on is fully compatible with both Cycles and Eevee.
