Hey Next Limit,
I'm pretty sure this feature isn't part of the current plugin (3.2.4). I didn't see it in the 3ds Max UI, but it is mentioned in the Maxwell Docs:
http://support.nextlimit.com/display/mx ... ysical+Sky
Would it be possible to add this to the plugin? I have a stock photo that I need to align a daylight system to and I have no idea where or when it was taken. There's enough hard shadows in the image that I could probably fake it if I could locate the sun with a vector.
Alternatively, I could work out the daylight placement in Maxwell Studio, go back and add my geometry over the backplate, then import my model back into Maxwell Studio and reapply the daylight settings. It would just be really nice to be able to use FIRE and the 3ds Max UI to do the whole setup.
Thanks Next Limit!
