What type are you using for the Environmental Settings? Imaged based? If so make sure Disable isnt turned on for the background.

fr152 · April 11th, 2008

no i'm using the physical sky. with sun enabled and all the other settings are the default ones.

Hmm...under Environment Settings scroll to the bottom and left click and hold on the earth. Move the earth so that the location is in the light. This should fix your background problem. It should update the model as you move the earth around. Make sure under atmosphere the sun is checked.

Which software are you exporting from?

fr152 · April 13th, 2008

i'm importing from sketchup pro6.
When i select preview viewport everything is ok, but when i render the final image the background is still black, and i have rotated the earth in the right position for the light.

and this is what i get if i push render.

I found the problem , by render channels i had the alpha channel checked.
I've read on another forum that option can't be used.
So thx for your help.
