      Hi Guys

      Im modelling a wee kitchen and used some recessed pots which bytor used in a previous model / render that I posted. I have placed them in the ceiling and using the twilight light editor, checked that they were all on and that they were enabled and that the light strength was set to 25 ( i have tried quite a few lower numbers and dont know what is wrong).

      When I render I get no illumination what soever. What am I doing wrong?

      When you burn your arse - you gotta sit on the blisters!!

        Posting your question in the wrong section - and forum... πŸ˜‰
        May I suggest that when you have questions directly related to TWR, please post the question at the TWR Forum...
        I certainly don't mind you posting questions here at the SCF about TWR, but I'm sure you'll get an answer much quicker if you post at the TWR Forum... πŸ˜„

        I really don't know why it won't work for you...

        In particular not since you're saying that you are able to check everything using the TWR light editor...

        Something else must be wrong... 😐
        Are you able to share the model - or a part of it...??
        If you are, please send it to support @ twilightrender dot com

        Cheers
        Kim Frederik

            Agree w/ Frederik,
            please post Twilight questions in the Twilight forum... we may not necessarilysee a question placed here.

            could be that some kind of geometry is blocking the light?
            could be that the lights are large radius?
            could be many things.

            copying a light from one file to another should work perfectly
