It seems it’s a problem with the True Sky Light. I don’t experience the sudden day to night light or the blue-tint I was having with the landscape textures with default skylight. The level is darker at night when using the default skylight - as mentioned already in the documentation on the website.

Thanks for confirming . We shall take a look.

Hi

I just installed 4.12.4_4.1.283 binary. I think I am missing some files in my folder thought I am not sure which ones. is what is in the folder currently.

Also the sun is insanely bright (large, overhwleming). I have tried turning down all sorts of things like the intensity and bloom in post process and diameter in the sequence asset.
(thats the width of the screen).

Also there is a bright reflective spot always in the same location of my water surface no matter the time of day or the settings for other objects.

Everything is very bright at night as well even with the skylight intensity set to .001. If I set it to zero things go pitch black like there is some huge multiplier on the skylight intensity. (Comparison)

None of these problems were present previously. Any thoughts on what is going on with them? Some kind of brightness multiplier on everything?

Thanks!

EDIT:
285 didn’t help and I went back to 272. It got a lot better again but some things aren’t working like the latitude influencing the sun position. I’m going to try and make sure my DDC and all that other stuff is deleted and see if it works. May go for a full reinstall using 272 and see.

Hi,

At a glance, I don’t see anything wrong with your installation folder. What makes you think you were missing files?

As for the brightness, is the Unbound box checked in the Post Process Volume settings? I’ve noticed that checking that can help, so for testing purposes, try checking it and turning bloom down all the way to 0. In my experience, the PPV and just don’t get along so it can take a bit of experimenting.

That said, if none of that helps then perhaps it isn’t the PPV, so let me know!

Does anyone know how to access the calendar? I’m trying to get (or set) particular date and time info after setting the date in the Asset. Right now it seems I can only get a number for whatever day it is from the starting day (e.g. “day 5.54”), rather than a detailed Date & HH:MM:SS readout. I’m setting my start date in the Asset and ideally could just drive that value to drive the days, and also read what day, hour, etc it is.

The system is limited to 4096 days. I’m guessing is a hardcoded value. Could be increased?

To my knowledge there isn’t any way to do , though you *should *be able to convert manually. For reference, 0.0 is 01/01/2000 at 00:00 and leap years are taken into account (2000, 2004 etc).

And I don’t quite follow when you say it’s limited to 4096 days, as the present day has a value of around 6000?
