Hi Folks,

I am using a a ceiling based model light which for some reason disapears just after the halfway point of my ceiling, even though the models are aligned to the raking ceiling; th epitch is 8 degrees.

Any thoughts?

Did you look at your view range?

Hey Mate,

Its not the view range, the model itself disapears into the ceilig as if it eases to recognize the ceiling workplane.

What do you mean by ceiling work plane?  Ceiling hosted object are hosted on the ceiling.

If the model goes into the ceiling - THEN YOUR CEILING IS NOT RAKED!

erm thanks, but the ceiling is set to a fall of 8 degrees; therefore it is a raking ceiling.

That aside, the ceiling does not seem to be hosting the light model past a certain point; approx halfway up the ceiling. Is there are parameter i need to add to the light model to ensure it's stays hosted to the ceiling?
