    sun problem

    I cannot get the sun to come in through a window. In the light DBX it says it is night time but I have it set for day time.
    see attached. Never had this in X5. Is this a bug in X6 or my brain?

    MY BRAIN - I just noticed on the uploaded picture that I forgot to change the longitude.
    The wind I just poured also helped! 5:45 here so I'm legal!

    Forgive the dumb questions but did you place a "Sun Angle" line and did you crank up the sunlight's intensity?

    David - yes. The problem was that the longitude was not set correctly and that skewed things.
