Vray Sun and lights are not showing in Render

Hello

I am trying to render my scene and I dont understand why it is very dark!

I have setup the Lights and VraySun but they are not lighting anything!

I added MrSky and the scene got a bit of lights.

I want the sun to cast shadows and to light the interior

Can you help?

 

I attached a render to show you how dark the scene is

Okay so when I opened the file I got 2 windows:

-The file was created using a student version of Autodesk. The use of these data by an educational institution or for commercial purposes is a violation of your Autodesk 3Ds Max license agreement.

-The MassFX authored on this file was created with a newer version of the plugins. Forward compatibility is not supported, so things might not behave properly. 

 

I am using 3Ds Max 2015

Hello...replying in 2021 when I was looking for a solution and I did finally find it for me. The thing is that though I had the Vraysun in the scene, the latter was still dark...but when I pulled the sun closer to the objects in my scene, everything was good and well lit perfectly. Well hope this help.
