HEADS-UP! Maybe this will help someone that is not getting a visible sun or the daytime changing. This helped me.

First select the render icon, next to it (left of the pause icon) there should be a downward arrow, click it and checkmark on "scene world".
~ Deselecting "schene light" will disable light reflection from the environment/global light (I believe)
~ Also make sure you have Python auto scripting on -> Edit -> Preferances -> Save & Load

PS. Thanks for this amazing plugin TheDuckCow!

[ruslanizmailov]

Is there any way to increase the brightness of the sun and the sky? It's very dim.

Is there a way to get realistics clouds instead of the minecraft ones ?

[johntrueblue]

[TheStoryParodyVideos]

Just asking. Can you put the clouds of minecraft story mode option or can we only just customize the clouds? Honestly, we're not good at it

[cubeitanimations]

Hey dude I don't know why but it is white in render mode can you pls help me

[VortexTheBreadMan]

Also could you make it so we can set our own node setup for certain blocks a example like I can choose my preset and it will auto load my water shader and leaves shader

[grassblock]

Please somone help me, I don't know the keys to use the cyrcle at minute1:22 i forgotten the command, please somone can tell me it?

[MikeTheRadBike]

Is there a tutorial for Minecraft End Sky in Blender?

[fredthefatherless]

Do you how to replace the colorramp with a hdri in the node editor like you did

[ranguy]

I wish there was a setting to increase the brightness of the sun since the default is pretty low (Eevee). Or maybe you meant for us to light the scene using a sun-lamp apart from the mc prep sky?

[theidiotking]

Is there a way to do one for the neather?
