Sun light?( 3dsmax8)
Q: how to create "sun light" , kind of uniform light troughtout whole environment?
I tried to use 1 directional light, but no matter how big I make it I get shadow near horizon.  |

I cant tell if thats the end of your plane or not, but in any case go to Directional Parameters and check 'overshoot'. That will kill off the hotspot and falloff opitions and keep your light continuous.

Make the cone bigger enought to cover all objects in your scene, under the light properties handly increasing the amount, or check overshoot like deadly freeze told you
