As seen here,

probably there's a bug in emitter's export: i had to flip them to the wrong side into LW before exporting, in order to see any light.

Hm thats really strange. Every other poly looks fine?

hi,
yes at least so it seems... .there's just some strange behavior in a table's leg, it seems transparent if i use "specular" material, even if opacity is set to 0.
I wonder if it's flipped itself, look yourself. Anyway, i dont know if it's of any meaning since the two apps may read OBJ in different ways, but if i import the exported OBJ back into LW, it has most normals flipped.
I attach bot the picture (look at table's leg on the left in picture with emitters - in other one i used a glossy material and it look ok) and OBJ so you can check.

could you just try exporting just the leg, or send it to me?

[Pavlov]

hi, sure.. i made a Save Project of the whole scene so you see.

PS - i set LAMP material's normal as they should be (facing downwards). You should not get light this way no matter what you do; to get light, i had to flip them upward and then make LAMP material doublesided before export.
Let me know,
bye

Hm strange indeed. I am reading the point order of a poly the same everywhere. Will do some more tests
