Dark Fluorescent and Pendant Lights in Cinerender

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello,

I cannot seem to get a fluorescent light to put out light. The light is turned on in the light setting (see picture) and the Cinerender light setting. I turned off the sun and the surface intensity. When I render in Cinerender everything is dark. It is the same problem with a pendant light. However, the recessed lights I am using put out light as expected. Any idea what the problem might be with the fluorescent and pendant lights? Thanks.

One thing to try is to increase the Light Distance, it is currently set to a bit less than 5 feet. You can compare this value to the lights that are working.
