Orbit Problems

Anonymous
Not applicable
A friend of mine is having a problem with his orbit in the 3D window. Each time he goes to move close to the building, without going inside, the building begins to do a 3D cutaway. He is not going inside the building or anything. It only happens when he gets level with the building plane. I don't believe it has any relevance to how close he is to the building. It is hard to explain clearly, but i was just wondering if anyone has any ideas b/c I have no idea what to tell him. Thanks.

This is a bug we've discussed before. It seems assoviated with particular actions in certain projects and can be duplicated by others.

Somehow a phantom marquee block gets associated with the camera position.

I suggest that your "friend" merge the file into a new project.

If anyone wants to see this in action, PM me and I will dropload the animation I made with my own project. As you rotate around the structure a block of invisibility cuts. haha.

Actually, I have compressed the mov to 1.1 megulons so I can email it.

as the camera rotates, the building cuts away.
