Hi there,
Can’t see any reference to this one in the forum search or whatnot, but would it be possible to add support for standard Maya light instances? Specifically the spotlight.
THanks!
I don’t think instanced lights work in Maya in general… at least I could not get them to work either with the Maya software or mental ray renderers.
Best regards,
Vlado
Since I’ve had the pleasure of working with V-Ray for a number of years now, it seems I’ve totally forgotten that lights in Maya are not supported as instances as you point out in either mr or the standard sw renderer . Sorry for that Vlado!
Hehe, no worries 
We don’t have a problem to support instanced lights, but the Maya stuff gets in the way…
Best regard,s
Vlado
