when you copy a vray rectangle light with a texture in the rect tex slot the light gets copied without the texture connection…
regards,
If you’re using “Duplicate” (Ctrl+d), that’s normal Maya behavior (I’ve tried it with an ambient light with a texture). It just copies the selected DAG node without copying any input connections. You’ll have to use Duplicate special with “Duplicate input graph” if you want a new texture created or with “Duplicate input connections” if you want the same texture connected to both lights.
