Reality 4.1 mesh lights

Maybe a stupid question : I just installed Reality (latest 4.1), but I can't seem to transfer the mesh lights (Lights -> Reality -> Mesh Light/Top Mesh Light) from DAZ to Reality Render.

If I open Reality Render Editor -> Lights tab, I can only see an IBL light listed (which I'm sure I didn't put in the scene).

Is there a script I must run to transfer the mesh lights to Reality?

Thanks,

Peter.

    Convert the surface of your existing mesh lights to a Light. From the Reality "Materials" tab, right click the surface and hit "Convert to Light".

    Or use Reality's mesh lights, which are auto-detected as lights.

    Is this a scene you have used with a previous version of Reality? If so you might try deleting the lights in the DS scene and then using undo to bring them back. If that doesn't work you may have to delete the old lights and load new ones, making sure you are loading the 4.1 versions of the mesh lights and not those from an old installation.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Yes, I use Reality's mesh lights and yes, I also had version 2. I also thought it was a conflict with the old content, but I'm sure I deleted all Reality props from the old version and installed the new ones...

    I will try a complete re-install of Reality.
