I am trying to do a close up fly through of a circut board I built. The board looks fine at a distance but close up on my fly through the nearest faces to the camera seem to dissappear ( you can see right through to the backround). And no my camera is not going through the middle of them I've tried changing the lens mm but the only thing that seems to work is moving the camera away to an unacceptable distance. Help….

Your z-clipping threshold is too high for the distance from you camera to those objects. You've got two options: 1) lower the z-clip threshold (which may do it, depending upon how small your scene is); or 2) scale everything up in your scene. – G

G- <<Your z-clipping threshold is too high for the distance from you camera to those objects.>> Thanks, I stumbled on that one… By the way, check out the November issue of Computer Graphics World… Regards, Peter Kroko

Has the November issue come out yet? I'm looking at the October issue, but I can't remember if I've gotten Nov yet. hmmm… I assume you've got something in there. Which piece? – G

PMJI, Peter, but where did to get the November issue of CGW? I've heard they changed the logo, but I couldn't find it at CompUSA, Barnes & Noble, or Crown… Connie
