Hi there.

Is possible to add to my illumination passes a mesh light ? I try to use light select but the light information it is not stored like using a normal light source. Any ideas how to add it to a separated pass ?

Cheers.

Alvaro

When creating a mesh light, a vrayLightMeshProperties\_lightlink node is created in addition to the vrayLightMeshProperties set. You can add this \_lightlink node to a light select and it will work.
