vray 2.2 - small fix

We had a problem using vray 2.20. and max 2011. If there was an ies light in the scene, the macroscript didn't work. I figured out it was the "Use Light Shape" part that didn't work. If anyone else has the same problem get this file, until 3dzver gets back with a real solution. :)

Excellent scrip but....

This is by far one of the most useful scripts for max i have ever used. I have a problem though with Vray 2 and max 2012. It does not recognize or display vray ies light. The MAX Script Rollout Handler Exception window pops up with an error saying "--Type error: checked: requires BooleanClass, got:2"

Is there a change for a fix to this. Other than ies lights it works perfectly.

Thanks a lot
