Datasmith Exporter Plugin for 3ds Max - Light conversion suggestion

When i create a disc light in v-ray for 3ds max and export it via datasmith plugin to Twinmotion, it imports as an area (rectangular) light. It would be more logical if it was imported as a spotlight, because both disc light and spotlights have a circular shape.

Hi Samuel, love the idea but unfortunately, it's a Twinmotion import limitation at this stage.

What I would suggest as a workaround, for now, would be to use the "replace object"

To find the replace object:

  • Select your light inside the scene hierarchy
  • Right click
  • Select replace object and Drag and Drop the light of your choice inside the menu.

Cheers
