HDRI Map Megapack [S2FM]

Description
IMPORTANT
This didn't fit on the Workshop, so you'll need to download the files here: (12gb)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_T_mxG--ec59J1iH5VaFl2brL8BjYLtU/view?usp=sharing

A large pack of empty void maps with HDRI light probes that you can load into SFM to get an ambient lighting setup. These help to tone shadows and add reflections to glossy materials. These are great for scene-building inside SFM, or creating preview renders of models.

Included are 146 HDRI maps with a large range of locations and colour tones. Everything from forests, caves, deserts, to photo studios. The custom HDRI backgrounds are free ones from PolyHaven. The pack also includes most of the existing Half-Life: Alyx ones.

HOW TO INSTALL
Extract the .zip, and put the 'maps' and 'materials' folders in:
\Steam\steamapps\common\Half-Life Alyx\content\hlvr_addons\[your_addon]\
\Steam\steamapps\common\Half-Life Alyx\game\hlvr_addons\[your_addon]\

Once they're in place, simply open SFM, 'set session map' and search for 'hdri_'.

I've also included the Hammer .vmap files so all the map thumbnails show in the map browser. You can also open these in Hammer to create your own HDRI's, and see how these are set up.

Hopefully these will be of some use! ^_^

This is the error message I am receiving
Error loading resource file "maps/hdri_forest_03/lightmaps/fog_irradiance_volume.vtex_c" (Error: ERROR_FILEOPEN)

Hey, I have set it up all properly but I can't see the lights really bouncing off my Models, like the colour of the forest will be visible on the model but not the lighting. Any fix?

I installed everything correctly, I'm able to load one of the maps in the session.
For some reason though when I try to get the map's lighting in the sesssion, it says "invalid map name" despite me using the correct name, and the command bar even showing its name while I type it in.

How am I supposed to get the map's lighting in the session?

You can link to other sources besides Google drive, Google drive gives an error when downloading at 3100 megabytes and this repeats every time I try to download the mod.
