Hi all, I'm building stuff in Max 5,and Texturing it,then exporting as a 3DS and opening the object in Vue 4.Now when the camera is outside of the object,a corridor in this case,it looks fine with the 2 lights I have put in there,but as soon as the camera moves inside the object it goes dark,even though nothing else has been changed in the scene ? Now I've tried the same thing with Vue 3 and it doesn't do this,could this be a bug that's just with Vue 4 ? Please help me solve this if anyone has any ideas ! Thanks,Andrew

if you click on the tunnel i think you will find the camera is inside the bounding boxc just move it out side and that should take care of the problem seeklight

I've tried that and that doesn't seem to be the problem,I set up a similar scene in Vue 3 which was fine,but when I opened it in Vue 4 it did the same as above ??

I'm late in seeing this thread, but I've had this same problem. I don't have Vue 3 to try it out on, but it has done it to me in Vue 4, and I believe in Pro as well. I'm unclear why putting the camera within the set piece should do this. The only thing I could think of it and it does have it uses, would be it considers the camera to be underwater and makes everything that blue. That is very helpful, but not if you want to have a camera place within a large room without going for a tight zoom. Is there an option to shut this off? Anyone?
