Hi imothep85,

At present you can only change sun rotation, so it lines up with the sun in your skybox image, but shadows always fall the same direction\length. So an overhead sun would not look right with the way shadows fall.

You specify the rotation in the skyspec.

Change the value in this line: SunRotation = 105 ( is a 360 degree circle)

I hope when the new skybox LUA command controls come out that the sun ones do as well around the same time.
