Sun Position

Changelog

• New "Now" preset to set the date and time to the computer’s current time.
• The day will no longer be automatically set to the current date when creating a new file, because this would override the default set by the user.

Fix an error where the date would change if a file was opened on a different day and the date had not been customised.

Fix sky texture not moving in Blender v5.0 when using Preetham or Hosek model.

Changelog

• Improve analemma and surface drawing:
  • Increase resolution of the surface so it’s closer to the analemmas.
  • Make the surface calculation more precise at its extrema (calculate it from solstice to solstice).
  • Clip both at ground level, to display only the sky part of the celestial sphere.
  • Use antialiasing for the analemmas, and let them be occluded by objects.
  • Update both on frame change, not just when setting a value in the UI.
  • Do not draw overlays when in Environment Mode.
• Fix an issue when setting a Day of Year value quickly, where the interface would freeze.

Changelog

• Add simplified Chinese translation, thanks to deathblood!
• Rename "Normal" mode to "Sun Object" mode, for clarity and ease of translation.

Changelog

• Use soft limits for UTC Zone, set them to actual min and max zones (-12:00 to +14:00)
• Tweak UI

Changelog

Change license to GPLv3+, v2 was used by mistake.
