Sun Position / Stadium Shadows

How does one edit the position of the sun for "Sunny Day" matches? depending on which stadium you play in, you could have shadows of the stadium that cover a significant portion of the field. sometimes this is good, and sometimes this is bad, but it would really help to be able to move the position of the sun. also some of these stadium shadows are way too dark, while others are fine.

i know there is the "shadow left" and "shadow right" options in CM10 but those don't seem to change the stadium shadows at all. if you can't move the position of the sun, maybe you can at least turn off the stadium shadows, or adjust the intensity of the stadium shadows. is there an option in one of the .inis or in game settings to turn just those stadium shadows off (not the player and other shadows)?

Thanks for the info trest. Do you happen to have that tool?

EDIT: nevermind I found it. you can download it from the korean (non-english) fifa korea site. Thanks so much!

Ok, trest, i installed the Loc Reader/Writer X tool, and tried opening up a few .loc files. what i did was used file master 10 and extracted the sle-xxx-x.loc files and the tag-xxx-x-loc file of a particular stadium in one of the zdatas, and opened it up with the loc reader.

In the tag file, there are two sections, AtmosGlowA and LightGlowA.

AtmosGlowA says "8 Position" after it and LightGlowA says "20 Position Direction" after it. after that there is a large amount of data. from what i've gathered, the sle file is the file defines the location of the lights. which file should i be editing to change the location of the sun for a "sunny day" match? (which could be different then the lights for a night match)

ok i think i found it. in the tag-xxx-1.loc file, there is a section called "Sun 1 Position".

this is how the tag-xxx-1.loc file starts:

3
Sun 1 Position
3569.523926 5879.215820 -4724.370117

So if i wanted to move the sun to high noon, so there will not be any stadium shadows on the field, are those the values that i need to edit?

not every stadium has a tag-xxx-1.loc file. some stadiums only have a tag-xxx-0.loc file. the stadium i am trying to edit the sun position in is actually one of the original stadiums in the game. (Modern Euro)
