Setting viewport to CoronaLight POV through Point-Of-View (POV) Viewport Label Menu sends max to crash. If one choose to save recovery file when that happens, it gets corrupted.

do you mean something like this?

[romullus]

Yes, exactly. What version of 3ds max is this? I'm trying it with 2014 sp5 and it crashes immediately.

fixed. The FOV of the view is hardcoded to light directionality. I cannot change it to a sensible value while keeping non-directional illumination in the viewport. When you increase directionality of the light the FOV improves.
