vray light is not invisible

[lolserver]

Hey,

 

If I place a rectangular vray light in my scene I can't make it invisible even tho the "invisible" box is checked, it comes as a rectangular black shape.

 

Any help please?.. using Max 2016 vray 3.40.01

 

Regards

Thanks for your post Francisco :-).

 

I just switched from 3D Studio Max 15 to 16 and using vray 3.40.01. I did not have such problem with Max 15. It is just a plain vray light squared shaped that I placed under a lamp. As you can see it is black when turned off despite the invisible box is checked. Of course it turns white when turning it on.

 

I have no idea how to make it "invisible" no matter how many tricks I try. As there are several light choices with Max 2016 & vray, I can find a way out although it is NOT the point not being able to use those popular squared vray lights as in previous versions.

 

Thanks in advance again.
