  Assetts dissapear when camera iis far away.

  Hi

  I’ve seen this happen before, but now it’s impeding the progress of a project. I have 2 rows of images making a “V” shape. Forgive the visual here, but it’s like someone laying down with their legs spread out towards the camera. I start at the crotch, where the two closest images meet, then pull the camera back to reveal all the images. When I pull all the way back the farthest images disappear until I get closer again. Until I actually rendered it out I thought it was just a preview thing. It’s not. It renders out that way.

  Is there some way to remedy this without starting from scratch? Would it help to make the images smaller? How about if I just scaled them down in the properties tab? What’s going on here?

  Thanks

  Chad

  Select Camera, Hit F4, Change Far Plane value so it’s much higher.
