Quick Start — Your First Render

1

Prepare Your Image

Use any equirectangular 360° image (JPG or PNG, 2:1 aspect ratio). If you don't have one, download a free sample from Poly Haven.

2

Choose a Pipeline & Template

Select SDXL Inpainting as your pipeline and Hextile_32_3K as your template. This gives you the best balance of quality and speed.

3

Configure & Render

Enter a global prompt describing your desired output (e.g., "dramatic sunset, vivid colors, photorealistic"), set strength to 0.4, and click Render.

Start with lower strength (0.3-0.5) for your first render. Higher values produce more dramatic changes but may introduce artifacts.
