Moving away from a wall makes it invisible

Hey, when I load a mesh into Blitz and then try to navigate around and within it, parts of it disappear as I move away from it. Here is an image of my problem. The images from left to right show me gradually 'walking' backwards in real time. Look at the stuff disappear: Why does this happen? How can I fix it? Thanks for all your help guys. |

| CameraRange will help, but it really looks like your level is way too big. |

| Yeah, i suggest you scale down the level as beaker says. The default camera range is 1000 units forward basically, so your level looks to be a bit bigger then 1000. I suggest using a scale of 1 metre to one blitz unit. So, probably talking about scaling that room by about 0.01-0.02. :o) That would make your room roughly 10 meters across diagonally. |

| Hey, thanks guys. I scaled it by 0.1 and not only was my problem eliminated but the whole program runs much faster and less choppily. So I guess that means my level was too large, like both of you said. But now I'm wondering, what if my level was 10 times longer, then in the distance I would still be able to see the walls getting constructed as I move closer to them. If I don't want this to happen, what do I do? Will changing the camera range help? |

Yes.CameraRange cam, .1, 9999 |

| Well, again, you have to ask yourself what scale your working on? If your working on 0.1 to 1000 camera range, and taking 1 unit per meter, that gives you a 1 km view distance :o) Going on what you scaled your level too, Mortiis's camerarange would also give you a 1 km view range. |

| Thanks a lot for your help guys! |
