    Unhappy Problem with lights when rendered

    Hi friends,

    I have this problem with lightings that when I render the active viewport I don't get the lighting and its completely dark. But if I select some objects and render them alone then I can see that the lighting is rendered properly. Keeping the render area as 'selected' I tried to select a whole group of objects and then render but again it is darkness.

    I don't know what kind of problem this is. I have tried almost all options known to me. I am using 3d max design 2010 and also tried doing it in max 2011 only to learn its not working.

    This problem applies to all kinds of lighting except daylight..why is that? Is there a setting that I might have changed accidentally?..or anything else. Please help me

    Thanks in advance

    rgds,
    Vivek.B

    It could be that you need to set your exposure (in the environment panel) for the appropriate type of lighting. Is it an exterior or interior scene?
