I do think it's something with the normals...

You could flip the normals of a face individual.

(Edit mode -> select the face to flip the normal -> press W-key -> flip normals)

In blender (edit mode) you can show the normals -> Mesh Tools More -> show Normals.

This makes it sound to me like it's not a blender issue, but near-plane culling in the engine. So at first the wall is shown right? and it disappears when you get too close to it?

When you get too close to a face, it won't be drawn because it is essentially "behind" the camera, in that it is behind the distance of the image plane. You can change it by using

Code: Select all

camera->setNearValue(...);

edit: actually looked up the solution
