error when trying to render scene, please help

[cwashington]

I'm new to the whole rendering process and I'm trying to follow the intructions in the manual to get myself familiar with the program. I have been trying to render the scene, but I keep getting an error:

ObjectExcep: Emitting object has zero total luminous flux.

I'm not sure what it is referring to. I only just added a lamp to the scene and I was receiving this error before then, so I'm not sure if it is referring to the light coming in from the window. I would appreciate any help. thank you.

Hey cwashington,

apparently your light source does not emit any light and Indigo does not like that.

What exporter are you using?

Hello,
i have the same problem. I use Cinema4d exporter

doing some research, I realized it was from a material that had been converted and whose preference "emission" was left unchecked.
Now it works!
