Offical crap load of questions thread

I will post all my questions here, and if anybody else wants to they can post theirs here too. My problem is with clay rendering, whenever I put a skylight in an interior room the object turns completely black when I render it. Anybody know how to fix this?

Did you go to render settings(F9);> and go to advanced lighting. and set it to light tracer.?
and you can't have a sjy. i donno why. but if you have a +sky material, and have it set to a piece it screws it up..for me at least.

Yes I have, and no I don't have a sky. It's just a closed room.

Sorry, I was just guessing. I have never had this problem. :(

you cant have a sealed object's inside be lit by a sky light. You need to hide the faces that make up your sky, or save your project as a seperate .max and delete them if it doesnt work.

I had said that already kenney.

i have a question! why is there a thread like this?

Because if someone has a problem there doesn't have to be 40 pentillion threads with problems. Someone can just answer here.
