Area Light not working

[polo]

Hi Everyone,

I am trying to add an area light on top of a room to light the room but it seems it needs to have a very high amount of lumen to work. I checked the size of my objects and they are at a normal proportion (height of the room 2,200 cm). Same problem when i try to add a light in the objects displayed (between the layers). Is there something wrong with the settings?

Thanks in advance

Paul

A 22m high room is not normal. There are 100cm in 1 meter. Lumens is always going to be a high number since 6000Lm is just a 60W bulb, how high is high? If you just share your scene it will be much easier to resolve your issues. Many things could have gone wrong.
