Sun Position resets

V-Ray V-Ray for Maya Issues
1

Hi all

The V-Ray sun resets it’s position when re-opening files.

This might be an issue when working in ‘World Coordinate System’ set on Z, as the Dome light preview icon is at 90 degrees, and this an HDR requires rotation in the ‘VRayPlaceEnvTex1’.
The ‘Up Vector’ is set to ‘From Maya Preferences’

If you set the attached maya files sun to 100 on the Z, save and reopen, the sun position isn’t maintained,

Cheers

Just checking, and the issue is present using the Y Up axis too.

Tried locking the Y at 100, but this setting doesn’t save with the file.

Hi,
thnaks for the feedback. This is a known issue and is fixed in the latest stable nightly builds. Which V-Ray version do you use?

Cool.

I’m on 3.60.03

I’ll download the nightly build.
