You don't adjust the camera range to fix that, you have to move the camera away from the object. You do that by using the position camera command.

Make sure the camera isn't inside part of the object. You should try APEX's .csm loader. You can load the lightmap and main level as one object and cut your polys in half. Make sure you put set camera range after camera setup commands.

Extract it to a folder. View the files you extracted. Open the folder Editor and copy the .ini to your editor\keywords folder of where you have DBP installed. Go back to the previous directory and open the folder Plugin. You will want to copy the csmplugin.dba into the same folder as your projects and include them in your project. Now choose from the 2 folders in there depending on which version of DBP you have 5.7 and later or 5.4 to 5.6 and open the correct folder there. Inside will be a file named csmimport.dll, copy it to your compiler\plugins-user folder of where you have DBP installed.
