Ground cube dissapears in Orthographic camera

Hello, I'm using a stretched out cube as my ground. In the Perspective camera it's there and works fine. In Orthographic camera it's not visible, though there. It has a height of 6 units so I know it's not just too thin to be seen. Is there a checkbox or something I'm missing? I've even tried starting from scratch with it, no luck. Thanks.

  1. Use a plane. It could/should work better.

  2. Give it a material to make sure it's not just white/black.

  3. Add in a directional light to make sure that it's actually lit up.

  4. Post a screen shot if none of these work.

  5. Have a great rest of the day =), and good luck!

Thanks for the tips Justin. I figured out what was wrong with the cube though. The cube was starting behind the camera. Once I narrowed it so that it started in front of the it popped into view.

Oh, that could work as well, haha =P. You could post that as an answer and then mark it correct =P. Lol. But good job =).
