    Sun Problem?

    Hi using 10.08 and have north arrow in its correct orientation, proper coordinates set, time of day, etc. But POV is not shadowing properly - its as if it is stuck on high noon in Denver. Anyone know a fix for this?

    Thanks!

    Same answer. If you don't have an extra sun, or some other anomaly that you can see in Adjust lights - post the plan and I'll take a look.

    I wrote code in 1984 to make my Sinclair 100 - so I used to be a programmer! So I can say with authority how easy it is to program Chief features! ;-)

    what is even more bizzare is when i can actually get it to cast shadows they are coming from the wrong direction. even if flip north on itself the shadows always come from the same - but wrong direction. so frustrating!

    Brayden,

    You have to zip chief files to upload. They're too big otherwise.
