I read that the Light Linker node isn't working yet.
But the old way with light ID doesn't work either.
Or am I doing something wrong? Please tell me.

Works for me.

Some pointers:

* Avoid using merge node unless you know understand how to use layers in USD. Build your networks linearly top to bottom.
* Make sure you specify the primitives you want to control Render Geometry Settings for.

I realized what my mistake was: the light pass mask does not work with directional light, but it works with regular area lighting. :idea: :idea: :idea:

In any case - thank you, you helped me figure it out
