It's happened again... but now I know how to make the room visible again... I don't know if the program repaired itself or not. The person I was with didn't say anything when it happened, so I just went with it until we changed the pose. And then another time it didn't happen at all.
So... now I was curious if I could control this or not.
Here's some examples of what was going on:
Change to "kneeling rider" and this is what I saw...

Next I moved the camera angle... and the room appeared

So I tried Cam2... could still see the room...

Then First Person view... works just fine...

Switched back to Cam1... blackout again...

I'm going to have to investigate this with a human partner (sorry Eva)... I'm curious to know if the blackout now happens on the other person's side. Eva wouldn't tell me.

When this first started, it remained black even if I move the camera angles or switched the view... now it's only when we first start the pose and remain at that camera angle.
I could click on the actions and it would remain dark. It's fascinating... and kind of fun.
