Problem with light sources

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi everyone

I seem to have a problem with uplight/downlight. None of them seems to work when im lighting my interiors. Obviously I´m doing something wrong but i feel like I´ve tried everything.

Btw, general light source works just fine.

Thanks in advance

Well, first you could say which program are you using

Yes.
What program version?
What rendering engine?
What lamp settings?
What resulting image?
Exactly what lamp object are you using?

Oh, of course

AC 10

Sun/skyobject 50 % yellow/blue
ambient 30% muave

uplight/downlight 100% (just to be certain to see the difference)

radius lightcone 3000
angle 0
angle inner lightcone 30
radius inner lightcone 4300
angle outer lightcone 40
start 0
end 5000
shadow on

height 1000

I hope it makes some sense, I´m working in a swedish version so I´m not sure about the translations.
