Hi Gary, here's another one for for your bug-report/wishlist. Since I experienced clipping in an Architectural walktrough I decided to scale the whole scene up to 10000 % (thus getting units in centimeters rather than meters) Therefore I linked *everything* (including cameras and lights) to a dummy and scaled it up. All worked well until I decided to render the scene during the weekend: Everything except the sun was pitch black! (Thats, 1500 frames go to hell). Anyway, I finally found it out : If one 'scales' a light, THE *RANGES* KEEP UNCHANGED. So my ranges were now that of a LED rather than those of a light. 🙂 Could you please fix that ? ( I ended up, rearranging around 50 Halogen-Spots in my Scene…luckily I have "lights.pxp")
