The funny thing is that if I try to render from within max, that problem doesn't happen.

Any thoughts?

Hi Gabriele! Thanks for the quick reply.

I've sent you a PM... did you get it? Just wondering cause the message are under my OUTBOX folder, instead of SENT folder... I am new here on the forum, so I thought that it would be nice to check it.
