Wondering if anyone has any idea how to solve this bug, or whether it is addressed in v2014:
I have created some nice directional spotlights as families in Revit. In wireframe, the photometrics look fine, and when I send the room off to render in 3DS Max, it renders exxactly as expected. If I try to render the same scene in Revit, I get the garbage in the other attached image. The two spotlights on the wall are created with the standard -90deg rotation on the .ies file, while the one fixture on the left was edited to a 0deg rotation, just to see if I could fix the problem. Note that the light direction is rotated 90 degrees in the Revit render when compared to the apparent direction of the light as shown by the .ies file.
These should be rendering the same in each program. Need some useful feedback, please!

Chris - even though the warning says the max size is 1,573 kb, this family file size is apparently above the limit for this board at 1,544kb. I can try to strip out some of the nested photometry options and reduce the file size. Unless you have a better way to post a larger file...
