Hey so i used an area light in my scene and exported it to octane, but in the renderer it doesnt work as a light, but shows up as an object like this:

Any idea what i am doing wrong? i dont want to be limited to the Daylight/texture environment ...

Thanks for the quick reply! I will try the things you mentioned!

Hey i just purchased Octane and made a lil c4d scene icluding:

-1 Frontal Camera

-1 Polygon object (Text)

-and 1 black material.

Im using R12, but when i use the octane export plugin and hit render it opens up the Octane Render but nothing is happening in my viewport, its just plain grey ...
