Are the objects that don't appear:

 - really close to the camera (like within one unit)? Orthographic cameras
don't display objects closer than the camera's direction vector, I believe.
Actually, according to the documentation, this could be the problem even if
they're closer than the look_at vector.
 - really far away (like in the millions of units or more)?
 - really huge or really tiny (like in the millions or millionths of units)?

Only some of the objects are invisible, right? (If *all* of them are, the
problem could be something simple like no light source or camera facing the
wrong way or something.)
