Quick Start
For Built-In Render Pipeline
1. Open Demo Scene
Go to Magic Sun Direction ➞ Examples folder and open the Demo scene.
2. Go To "Set Sun" Window
Go to Tools ➞ Magic Tools ➞ Magic Sun Direction ➞ Align Directional Light...
The "Align Directional Light" window will be opened, by default it looks like in the screenshot below.
3. Activate Direction Setting Mode
Press the "Align Direction" button to switch to the orientation mode of the selected directional light source. The block with the overlay settings will be expanded.
4. Align The Directional Light
After switching to align mode, the overlay will be activated. Now your Scene View should look like this.
Rotate the camera until the light source on the static skybox is in the center of the circle. Use the settings in the "Align Directional Light" window for a more accurate orientation.
Check the "Track Skybox Rotation" option if you want MSD to track the skybox rotation and perform orientation automatically. (also in runtime)
Close the "Align Directional Light" window.
Your directional light source now completely matches the light source on the skybox.
