    I just made my Icarus test. However when I run the script in Max it creates a free camera with a border ( I hate using Free cam). This border, once crossed, makes the object (in this case CG ship) disappear. The border is visable, colored with red. Is there anyway to get rid of that border the free cam creates? Can the problem be solved within the script Icarus creates? If so how?

    well I got into the Icarus/Max script file and changed "freecamera" to "targetcamera", still has that annoying border. Suggestions?

    It sounds like a distance clipping problem. I didn't know of any time where 3ds Max had a limit on the distance that it can see, but that's what it sounds like.

    Yeah, I just checked, that has distance clipping enabled, just go under the camera properties and uncheck the distance clipping.
