How to change indigo to render what camera view is?

Post by ngethin » Fri Jun 12, 2009 9:26 pm

Hi guys,

I have moved on to working in 3Ds max instead of sketchup because of my complications, just incase no-one can help me out with my previous problems involving sketchup. 3Ds max appears to be going okay in the design stages but with indigo I cant figure out how to tell it to render what the camera view point it. If someone could give me a hand on this it would be great!

Thanks for reading!

I'd be happy to help you using indigo and Skindigo.
Just make a decision.
And make it clear.

Hey ngethin,
I'm not sure if I get your question, but Maxigo exports currently active viewport. If you want to change your camera, then you have to switch the active viewport to the camera view you want to render.

Hey suvakas,

Thanks for getting back to me. Well here is a screenshot of my 3DS max workspace with the camera viewport selected. I have also attached the image that Indigo outputs, I'm just totaly lost as to whats going on. Any advice you could supply would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Is it Free or Target camera you have there? Only Target cameras are supported at the moment.
