IES lights with v2.00

Tim Tams Emissions video shows him connecting an IES light using "textures/images/float image" to the Emissions node in v.1.80. V.2.00 doesn't have a float image tab. I am trying to create a light beam like the attached pic, but using Octane. Does anyone know if this is even possible? If so, I'd really appreciate a node diagram please. (The attached images was done with an LW spot and a texture) Thanks.

Perhaps you could use a light projector setup:

Thanks Juanjo,This looks as though it might work for me. Does this mean that IES lights no longer function in Octane? David

Yes, IES lights should work in Octane without problems, but AFAIK the IES files doesn't have the color information to render an effect like the one you posted before.
