Hi!
Well, the thing is, I'm going to start the illumination process on a very huge scene. For it i'm gonna use vray and IES lights. Problem is, my scene's unit system is 1 unit = 1 meter, but the IES file unit system is 1 unit = 1 milimiter. If I change the unit to 1 meter as I need that to be, the luminaire stops emitting light. I scale it's multiplier up to 9999999999999 times, and only then I could barely see some light, but it wasn't even close to what that luminaire originally emits with it's units set to milimiters.
So, basicly, my question is: Hoy can I change a IES file unit system, and mantain it's illumination qualities?
Thank You
(excuse my english if it's too poor, for I'm from Chile and I rarely speak english)
