Posts: 975 		I've had this happen a few times now on the set that I'm making. Have a look at these cameras......



See those spikes ???

This happens after working in a set for a couple of hours in the latest version. It can happen on objects or even characters (All "Man" characters had an Omen-like spike through their back!). These spikes will render if you make an AVI - the ones on characters and objects even have a shadow. They will survive a save and re-open of set file, but will go away if you close Muvizu and go back in, so I can't send you a .set file with them in.

It's not a big deal as I know I can get rid of them, just thought you'd like to know......

Thanks for letting us know, I will try to load a "heavy" set and work on it for a while to see if I can get this to happen.

I might bug you if more details are needed

Cheers,
Marco

It'll be OK - Winter's coming.
