Peak solar radiation with Ladybug

Hi everyone,

I am trying to calculate the peak solar radiation in a building but for some reason the Skymatrix I produce are empty (as if it was night time all the time). Any tips?

I have had some problems running the Gencumulativeskymatrix component since my firewall was keeping it from downloading a Radiance file. I managed to run it by copying gendaymtx.exe file myself into the ladybug folder (attached). Now it works but produces only empty sky matrix. Could this gendaymtx.exe file not be the right one?

I attach the script here

Alejandro,

It is probably the same problem solved in the previous post:

Thanks giobuttu.
Yes, this seems like the same issue. Alejandro, you can either:
1) use the old gendaymtx.exe that I uploded in this other discussion or
2) use the gendaymtx.exe that you are currently using and sync with the github, which has a new genSkyMtx component.
