Hey forum.
So, before I get to my two main questions, I’ve experienced so many mel-script errors on so many fronts with version 2012 that I’ve started a screen grab mel script bug library I’ll probably share and post at some point soon to get a little feedback.
I know I’m a newb, but man, I NEVER had this many issues in 2011.
Anyway, I have 2 questions…
1) Lighting issue?
When lighting (using view all lights in perspective view as I’m working), the lighting preview seems to work great…UNTIL I delete a light. Then, the entire geometry sometimes goes totally dark (IE- The lights go out- sometimes a few, sometimes all). I can, however, then undo to before the light (pin light, spot, any of them as an example here) was deleted. The original lighting scheme will come back in preview.
However, any additional lights then added to the scene will not affect my perspective preview at all, forcing me to light blindly with guess work and having to render out draft after draft to simply see what I’m doing.
2)Repeated view zoom-jump?
When working for extended periods of time, especially on close up work, I really notice this. I’ll be modeling, curving, whatever, and suddenly, without me touching any hot-keys or accidentally clicking the mouse (in other words, sometimes my hands are even off of everything) the view port will suddenly zoom/ jump in a few ticks. We’re not talking an F zoom, but like a little glitch jump.
There are my questions. Hope someone may have some input. Once again,
Thanks everyone for any feedback
