If I create a simple application where I can fly over a plain I can only see a little of the plain. The engine only renders in a certain radius around the camera. Everything that's beyond appears in the background colour. So it feels like being in a fog where my range of sight is only a couple of meters.
How do I increase that range of sight?
javax.media.j3d.View.setFrontClipDistance(double distance)
