'Refresh' button has been added to the HDR Light Studio Connection panel. The button re-scans the Omniverse stage and re-populates available dome lights in the Dome Lights list.

HDR Light Studio API updates.
Support added for USD Composer 2022.3+

30th September 2022
Updated plug-in released - Plug-in build 2022.0920
Updated to maintain compatibility with newer Omniverse USD Composer builds.

13th June 2022
Updated plug-in released - Plug-in build 2022.0610
In USD Composer 2022.1.3, the DX12 implementation corrupts the Beauty Pass of the interactive rendering inside HDR Light Studio. As a result, the interactive rendering inside HDR Light Studio interface will appear black. NVIDIA is aware of this issue and will fix it in the next release of USD Composer.
 
At the moment, there are 2 options to use HDR Light Studio with Omniverse USD Composer:
 
1) Use HDR Light Studio with Omniverse USD Composer 2022.1.2
 
2) Use the new Omniverse USD Composer Connection build 2022.0610 and run Vulkan rather than default DX12 rendering engine:
 
From your USD Composer root folder, example: C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\ov\pkg\create-2022.1.3
You can run .\kit\kit.exe .\apps\omni.create.kit --vulkan
 
This will use the Vulkan engine rather than DX12. It may take some time to start the first time as it will be compiling the shaders. Users can then use HDR Light Studio and Omniverse USD Composer 2022.1.3.
