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 thing.

All the best,

Sebastian

No exporter can export lights as it is.
They can only export lights as geometries, so you have to set up the light geometry with a diffuse emission material.
