Hi group,

I don't know if I am missing something...but I am working on a simple interior with multiple light sources and they are all stock lights from Revit. Anyways, I do a render and one of them (a pendant style lamp) does not light up in the rendering. The rest do. I have all the lights turned "on" and the rendering is set on "interior". I tried another fixture, the "studio" lamp, and what do you know, it fails to light up in the rendering too. Just wondering, is the sun supposed to be on, or off? (This all seemed to be sooo much easier when I used Autocad/Accurender together)


Any ideas?

Anyway you can post the file?

Sorry, should have replied sooner. I ended up removing extraneous data from the file (stuff that isn't even in the render) and then the lights all worked fine. In fact, everything worked quite well. Perhaps the model was too large to process all the lighting?

jason, you can crop the model down to just that single room when doing interior renderings with radiosisty. They go over that in the Radiosity tutorial if I remember correctly...
