Accorind to my measurments the sun does not follow a real-world pattern (or any sensible pattern for that sake) on the SH5 skies, you can see it for yourself using sextant from TDW UIs mod. This invalidates the whole sky height measurement process. More to that there is a strong possibility that the sun position is dependent on the screen resolution. Even if there is a pattern, I doubt it is possible to see the horizont and the sun simultaneously given the tools we have.
