ArchiCAD 22 project North & Location not working

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

I have set up my project location & north correctly to Sydney and true north.

However, my 3D Solar path toll, which is following the project north and location is not working.

The north and sun dirctions are upside down.

I double checked the sun shadow in 3D, the sunlight is coming in the oposite direction.

Can anyone help?

Many Thanks.







The little red sun I draw, should be the right location

Have you checked if the model shadow is correct?

And your model is in the correct position?
I mean: Your North is correct, but your model may be rotated.
And your 2d plan may be rotated.
To better check this, place a 2d North Symbol and link it (in settings) to the real North.

Yes I have double checked.

The 2D north symbol is right and the 3D model is in the correct position.

I really have no idea what is going on.

Perhaps your 3d view is in custom mode.
Try creating and save a new 3d View Map with your North and Sun specifications.
Be sure to save the View Map for the definitions stick.

Hi, did you figure out the solution? I have the same issue here.
