Clipping Area not working

Hello Itoo,

Can you please take a look at my file and advice on how to get clipping areas working?

I am using Railclone 6.0.7

Hi,

Thanks for you question. Sometimes RailClone needs a hand to know which splines belong together. You can do that by assigning splines that should be considered as a single plane the same material ID. Then in RailClone, change the Hierarchy Checking mode to By Material ID



I had some trouble with the splines in your scene file. They were crashing RailClone in this mode, and also crashed max when editing them. I've got around that by recreating them, but I'm not sure what the issue with them was.

All the best,

Paul
