Auto conversion of Houdini Light into a mesh.

[fantome]

That would be nice if the plugin could allow us to use houdini default light.

Basically we can use :
- a spot light
- a line light
- a grid light
- a disk light
- a sphere light
- a tube light
- a distant light
Then the corresponding polygon object is automatically created in the back.

I know the maxwell v3 plugin was able to do this, and as maxwell also rely only on real object to light a scene it must be doable.

Hi,

Yes, in theory it is possible. I have this feature in my TODO list, so at some point I'll include in the plugin the basic support of some of the Houdini lights.

Thanks,
