strange, day seq devices seem to work fine for me, as well as the sunlight options, atleast with Chapter 5 day night cycle

but skydomes which you use with legacy day night cycle arent working

Which TODM are you using? The setting would be World Settings → World Time of Day Manager

We are aware of some issues using the Legacy TODM with the latest release, no ETA on a fix yet but we are actively working on it. If anybody has any problems with the Day Sequence Device or Island Settings → Ambiance → Time of Day while NOT using the Legacy TODM please create a new bug report and feel free to tag me.

Look in World Settings and then look for World Time of Day Manager. Legacy TODMs are the time of day manager you default to using for converted islands.

Gotcha, thanks. You have the same issue as everyone else in this thread, we are working on a fix. Islands that are not using the Legacy TODM are unaffected, but they also do not support Skydome Device.

Hi @nickolas.drake Is there anything new on the subject? It really slowed down the activity on my map…
