Hello everyone,Can anyone tell me where I can find a pendant light fixture(s) that will illuminate a room in my model?  All of the pendant lights I've found so far show up but do not illuminate the room (see attached file.  The recessed down lights are illuminating this space, NOT the pendants).  Thanks,mrDamon

It's probable that the light fixture doesn't have a light source.  

 

This is probably an old family that was built for Revit's old rendering engine.  You could edit this family and add in a real light source.

mrdamon you could also use http://www.visalighting.com/. They have a large selection of light fixtures for wall ceiling and floor mount specifications. if you want to  use the pendant light that you currently have, then you will have to edit the family and ensure that there is a light source and that it is turned on.

It could be no light source but it probably is the material surronding the light is not a transparent material.  You may have to edit the family and find out what the lens of the light is and make sure that material is properly set in the project.
