Double sided emitter in photometric light

Hey Paul,

as you can see in the Screenshot it is now possible to correctly render ies files with two directions only by checking Double Sided in the Emitter properties. Is it possible to add this to the photometric Light item?

Once I use an IES distribution, the Double Sided pin does not work for me. I will add Double Sided to the Octane Light package - since it will work with the other light types, but I'm not sure it will work with Photometric lights.

It does work when double sided is enabled. You just need to use an IES file that projects light in both directions
