ok after you have done what you have done so far.
you need to go to view under your main max pallets.
there you have vieqw port background .
There you gpo to view port, choose your perspective.

then click display background and use enviroment background.and it will apper in your perspective view.
And that's it .
mail me again if you have a problem

Hi Philip, I did that already but the result was the same, I dont know whats wrong, is it the material or the object itself, by the way i ysed an AEC doors and windows of max, but my other previous renderings using a standard scanline rernderer i dont encounter this problem only here in vray. is there any solution to my problem? thanks.

You can put the map on a plane in the background and render it out. You might want to adjust the plane not to receive light or GI or some common things such as those. Can you see the background image when you click smooth on the screen?

Do you have glass in your windows? If so turn it off and see if it renders. If it does then it is your material setting for the glass.

Hi Saturn thanks for your reply, yes i have a glass in my door and windows, if i remove the door and windows i can see the environment outside. just like this one I rendered please see the attachment. I really want to know what is the problem with my work, so if ever i will encounter this same problem i would know what to do next, coz I have a lot on que of projects here in the office. many thanks. God Bless
