Screen renderer shows black screen

cameroon95 · 5th Oct 2009, 01:47 pm

Hi guys, just wondering what would show a blank screen to appear in a render in a max file ?

The scene is an import from sketchup. Has no lights but looks bright enough. Even when i draw a standard max box it doesn't show up. Any thoughts?

p.s All other files render fine

Try Exporting the scene as .3ds and then Import it back into a new file.
