IES Lights and Dusk Scene HELP!

[leorobleto]

Hi all, need some help here. I have a dusk scene lit up by a bitmap using Image based lighting. I have a bunch of IES lights some on walls, some on the ground aimed at the walls. However, when I do a test render overriding materials the IES lights appear perfectly. However, when I turn on materials to do the render, the IES lights disappear!!!
Anyone know what's up with that?
I can post images if you need.


Also, can anyone recommend some good setting for a DUSK scene using VraySky and VraySun?
Ive never tried since for these types of scenes I use HDRIs and Bitmaps. Any recommendations are very welcomed!
Thanks!

Re: IES Lights and Dusk Scene HELP!

The problem with the IES light is weird. Are you sure that you only enable and disable the override option? Could you send me the scene?
For a Dusk render, usually only an HDRI is good, but you need some artificial light. Some lamps and IES could do the job.
