We have produced a movie that gives a broad range of facilities and views of the Costa Rica Sims. Its not exhaustive as there is a lot of places and things to do there.

Enjoy the movie and go an explore this lush and very splendid set of Islands.

Thanks for your comments/feedback, much appreciated.

The way to play with the lighting is World, Environment Settings, Environment Editor. Set the rough time of day you want, then click the Advanced sky button, this brings up 3 tabbed pages where you can set Lighting, Clouds and Ambient. You can also play with the water settings, using the Advanced Water button, brings up all sorts of things you can play with. If you find something you like, save it and give it a name, its stored on your system.

I spend literaly hours playing with settings on a film set, its another tool to the directors kit, production, camera, editing, ambient settings, water and lighting all at your fingertips.

You know when you set say Sunset and the sun isn't quite in the right place? In the advanced Sky, lighting tab, drag the East Angle slider, that moves the sun 360 degrees around the horizon, or whatever height you set it at..now even the sun is under control.
