When converting from V-ray to Corona, all sources turn in the opposite direction, they shine in a different direction than in the originals, I have been observing this for half a year now

Hi Elvissuperstar007,
From Vray to Corona?

Corona and V-Ray light sources are not converted correctly into Octane Render — they appear inverted and emit light in the wrong direction.
They were shining downwards, when converted they started shining upwards and it's always like that

Hi Elvissuperstar007,
There's an issue that needs to be addressed, I'm sending my report to the developers. In the meantime, a workaround is to disable the 'Target' option in the Octane light settings after converting V-Ray/Corona lights.

Hi Elvissuperstar007,
you should take care of the doors normals. if you chamfer the doors choose smooth chamfer only.
