My shop is on the mainland. I know how to change the sun to Sunrise, Noon, Sunset, Midnight, and Local Sun (or whatever it's called, the sun that the region is currently set at). All that is available under "World," I believe.
But I'm taking pictures and there is a sun angle which is good for these pics, but isn't one of the four choices above.
I've heard there is a way to grab the sun and move it to where you want it, but I don't know how.
How exactly do you do that?

client>world>mouse moves sun
once you have done this just go into mouseview (m) and use your mouse to control the sun. |

Once you do the Client World Mouse Moves Sun, and enter mouselook, as described above, look around and the sun will be where you are looking at.
Once you get the sun where you want it, press escape to exit mouselook before you get distracted and move the mouse. I'm usually just halfway paying attention to SL and often forget to leave mouselook promptly when the sun is in the right place. _____________________

 Another way to change the sun would be to alter the value of G in the above equation. _____________________

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to move the sun in WindLight? I'm in a photography class right now and the instructor did not answer my question - merely said she is not covering it in this class. I knew how to do it in the standard viewer, but apparently they've moved or re-named it in WindLight. Does anyone know how to do it in Windlight? Thanks! Grace |
