I find it odd that I cannot post anywhere but here??
Anyways, when using the Poser plugin and I convert the lighting (only have one light which converts to Sun) the lighting is affecting the front of the scene in Poser but the Sun is affecting the back of the scene in Octane. ???

Thanks

Hi

If you only have a single light which is the sun, you don't need to convert that light to an emitter. Assuming it's an infinite light the pluin will automatically use it's position as the daylight sun position in Octane.

Hi DarkEdge,

Are you a licensed customer? If so (unless you chose otherwise during registration) there should be a forum account with the same username as your customer account setup, with the rights to post in the licensed customer area. PM me or contact [email protected] if you have trouble finding or accessing it.

Otherwise if your are not licensed and just using the demo, this is the place to post :)

Thanks
Chris.
