I have a scene where I have a few different render layers that I need to put on top of each other for the final render. Everything works fine when I have transparent background checked for the render but I need to also have the environment background image behind everything. Also, the camera moves and displays different parts of the background, so I can't just alpha over everything on top of an image texture. Is this possible? Thanks in advance!

  • you could add another render layer that only have the environment background pass enabled and compose it underneath the other layers –  Jul 10 '16 at 20:59

Enable Environment in the render layers.

Enable Film, transparent.

Then composite your layers with transparency together, and place them over the Environment using Alpha Over.

  • Could you attach a .blend please, I can't reproduce your results, my background won't show up. I tested this in a recent daily build. – WhatAMesh Sep 07 '18 at 10:31
