my environment texture doesn't illuminate the landscape in Cycles, it's just all black, but the texture can be seen. Scene World and Scene Lightning are activated. Do you have to activate anything else? Thanks!

    $\begingroup$ In the Properties panel > World > Ray Visibility, check if the Diffuse option is enabled. Also you could share your file without all the objects of your scene, just pack the image $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ just "simplify" your scene to just your problem - so delete all objects except default cube - thats enough but with environment texture. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Sorry that I’m only getting in touch now, but something else came up with me. When I deleted the objects, the problem became clear to me. It was a sphere over the whole landscape that blocked the light and was invisible. The settings have already been correct, I just have to delete the sphere. But thank you for your answers! $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 6, 2021 at 11:55
