IES light bug
Posted: Fri Sep 07, 2012 7:12 am
I think I found a bug. I downloaded a file from the GE website and it's a 90 degree file, see attached. When I try to use it I get "Scene must contain at least one light source." error. The problem seems to be the -1 after the TILT=NONE line.
Here is a part of the file:
If I edit the file and replace the -1 with 755 it works. This page, http://www.vuw.ac.nz/architecture-onlin ... ormat.html, says a value of -1 is valid for an ies file:
