HELP with rendering.

[THEMASTERMIND]

For some reason, the rending on our copy of 3D Max won't work correctly. It only renders in the perspective view no matter which view you are in. Can anyone help us with this problem?

Thank you.

Sometimes quick-render renders the wrong one.
Try hitting F10 and at the bottom of the dialog, select which viewport you want to render from the selections in the drop down list. Should work.

All you should have to do to fix it is to go into the main rendering panel and uncheck the "lock render viewport" icon (toward the very bottom right)

...uncheck the "lock render viewport" icon ...

Mine has never been locked. Still, F9 rendering gets stuck in a viewport sometimes. It's a bug. Resetting with F10 forces it back.

I've never run across that one before... well I'm sure to run across it now (as soon as I forget what the workaround is )

yea, I've had that happen to me, usually just render in a different vp then back to the one I want works.
