If this is a exporter bug, the plug-in developer team nothing to do with that either - because reason cause this bug is in the standart 3dsmax obj export module, so we should thank Autodesk for this.

That was the incentive for me to write my own obj export, because the Softimage one has a memory bug...
But i think this bug is pre Autodesk ;)

Hi guys,

I was in hospital when you wrote this thread so i could'nt reply.
Can someone make me a decent bug report ?
It's a bit confusing what i read here.
You should be able to see the reflection of an emitter in a glossy material , and the roughness should not have any influence on it.
However it could be linked to the light switching bug that's still in the pre-2.3 intermediates.

I'll try.
I recorded a video

password "pre23"
I thought it's something wrong with 3dsmax scene (I took it from evermotion dvd), but I tried to render very simple scene (just plane and teapot on it) and I got same result - no non-glossy reflections from emitter.

I attached archive with interior scene from video (11111.ocs and 11111.obj) and simple teapot scene (444.ocs and 444.obj)

Hi,

We've worked on this issue and it should be working with the new pre23_3 which was just posted today.
If the issue persists or is'nt %100, please let us know.

Thanks,
