I'm not sure if this post belongs here or in 3ds max http://forums.cgarchitect.com/67449-viewport-turn-black-vray-lights.html#post338001 Hi everyone. I have a problem with 3ds max 2010 64-bit and VRay 2.00.02. My grafic driver are Direct 3D 9.0 (Nvida Quadro 600). The problem is in the perspective viewport when I use Vray lights. It all turn black (as in no lights, only black and grey) when I for example hit ctrl+z or when I flip ctrl+w to maximize viewport. I can however use ctrl+l to switch on default lightning to see lights in my scen but that doesn't solv the problem. When the perspective viewport is black (after hiting ctrl+z, even if the ctrl+z doesn't have anything to do with the lightning) I can click in the perspective viewport and that makes it go back to normal vray lightning. But I have to click in the viewport every single time to make it work. Any suggestions? This problem doesn't affect my renderings - that part works fine! I'm not sure if this problem are caused by 3ds, vray or my grafic driver. But my suggestions are on vray. Thanks!

Hay, few days ago i switched to 3d max 2011 and vray 2.0, every time i add vray rec. or any other lights to the scene i cannot see light shading on my max 2011 view port, it's totally dark, even i bump the intensity of the light it won't change anything. but it's renders fine, but i cannot adjust my scene with out seeing how actually light effect on the scene. i did had this issue in max2009 and vray 1.5. is there new settings in vary2.0 or in 3dmax 2011, to able to actual light shade on view port.
