Title: Corona Sun to go below the horizon?
Post by: snakebox on 2014-09-16, 07:35:01
Hey Keymaster,

Amazing work, keep it up!

I came across a weird problem today, where I wanted to animate a sun rotation going from midday to night, but I realized that I can't rotate the corona sun more than 90 degrees, flat with the horizon, which means it still contributes a lot of orange light to the scene, rather than very little and more blue/purple I guess when the sun has already set.

If there is a way to do this, please let me know and obviously ignore this.

problem:

Currently it seems like the corona sun only allows for half an earth rotations rather than a full (no night cycle)

if there is ever an extension of the original paper published on below-horizon data, we will add it
