Is there possibly some kind of clipping plane set up on those views which is causing it not to draw there?

I took a look in the .3ds file structure, and I can't really see anything that should cause this to happen within the file itself, and that .3ds file seems to load normally into Rhino and Cinema4D...

Maybe I will be able to try and download the demo version of 3ds max tomorrow to test it some more.
