Is it rendered at AM or PM? (Why I'm struggling with the time of day.)
Ever since I started using SH3D, I have been plundering with setting the right time in the renderer. I have always thought the trouble was in my own head, since I have often been told that left-handed people have their brains cross-wired.
But I think I learned at some point, probably when I lived in London, that the designation AM, refers to the hours between midnight and noon, and that, as a mnemonic-tool, I could think of AM as "After Midnight". Of course I'm most comfortable with the 24 hour clock, and would surely appreciate it if SH3D could implement it as an option.

Midnight sun?




Eclipse?









Well, now that I have finally found out why I have struggled all these years and frequently been rendering images with daylight instead of night (and vice versa), I shall probably never make that mistake again. I'm still a bit confused about what's morning and what's afternoon, but it's probably a good exercise for a cross-wired brain to figure it out.

All the best. wink
