does anybody know if a linear light in viz can be curved?

 

i have a cove lighting condition in the ceiling, with the cove being round. whats the best way to do the light for this. in the past, ive done segments of linear lights, but i was wondering if the linear light can be curved.

You can make curved spline (e.g. arc), then make it renderable. Assign material with self-illuminating to this spline. Then override the mtl by Lighting Override. Ajust Luminance Scale parameter (more than 10000 for example).

 

This method have one lack, it need using radiocity :)
