Hi

When i export a scene with the exporter all emitter materials don't emit any light, no matter what settings i use. I have the import all (mesh)emitters seperately as *.obj to make the emitter material emit light. Whats this?

Hello Furumaru,

Please send me a sample scene and I will check it.

Thanks,

Ok, I can see a problem, it will be fixed for the next release.

Reason:
From the exported objects light goes in the opposite direction.

As a workaround please try to flip the object normals of the emitters in modo.

Sorry for the late answer but my pc was broken. Your hint with the flipped objects is right, now it works. Thx. :)
