Instanced ies lights not rendering

Are instanced ies lights supported in corona?
The ies (or a regular corona light) renders in the reference object but not in the instances.
How do you set this up to work correctly?

Beanzvision:
Hi there,

Seems to be working here for me. Perhaps it's the IES profile that isn't playing nice? Have you tried others?

BigAl3D:
@Jojorender Curious if you're using a Mograph Cloner set to Render Instances or Multi-Instances? I have had some weird behaviors in Cloners when using lights. I was setting up a test with Mograph and got funky results any time I changed settings, mostly with either the IR or the Interactive Viewport. I was going to see if the final render matched the funkiness, but it locked up and crashed.

For whatever reason, C4D hasn't been generating a proper crash report or scene file otherwise I'd post it.

jojorender:
Sorry for the late response... deadlines.
I got the ies to render by turning off "render instance" in the instance object.
Didn't make that clear that I'm using "RENDER instances".

No multi-instance for me, still on R18.

Thanks all.

Beanzvision:
Hi, glad to hear you got it sorted. :)
