Hey,

I would like to use Octane Daylight with longitude and latitude settings and manually define the correct north direction of my architectural project. I tried to define the north direction by changing the Angle of North Degrees of the compass in the viewport configuration of 3dsmax but the Octane Daylight didn't interact with this setting. Is there another way to change the north direction in 3ds max so that it corresponds with Octane Daylight?

Greetings to everyone ;)

Create a Sunlight system and link an Octane Daylight to it.
