i’m having an issue where I try to navigate closer and everything beings to kinda wipe off the screen as i approach it. I deleted my lighting and am still running into the same issue. i’ve been working on this project about 20 hours and it was fine up until now…rather new to unity couple months in, but never run into this before.
The near and far clipping planes of the scene view camera can change dynamically depending on what it’s focused on. If it last focused on a large object, the near and far camera planes will be tuned to a larger scale, further distance.
One easy way to reset the camera is to click on a small object and hit the “f” key. The camera will move to (f)ocus on that object and adjust it’s parameters accordingly.
Edit: also, it looks like your camera might be in orthographic mode, so objects don’t get larger when you get close to them. Objects will look like they disappear but maybe they are just behind the camera
Hello and thank you for your response.
I actually used the F hotkey within the video and shows what happens when I Right Click and W closer. It is simply wiped away instead of zooming closer. I have checked my camera and it is in perspective and not orthographic.
It is not obvious what has changed, but I would hazard a guess that it has to do with some configuration within the project settings, perhaps I hit a hotkey on accident.
I checked which light sources I have and I only have a single one.
This is because you are in “ISO” (isometric) mode, when in that mode, as @kdgalla points out, you cannot see if an object is close or far (it is always the same size).
(from your video)
When in that mode, if you want to “zoom”, dont “go forward”, instead, use the mouse wheel to zoom. If you go forward you will probably “clip” through items because you dont see that you are already past them (they dont change size). The wheel however, changes de “orthographic size”, and that can propperly zoom.
Anyways, in the worst case, just go back to perspective mode
