This sounds like a weird question but some lights like standard spot return 0 when asking for their NumParamBlocks(); and others like photometric didn’t return its value for “Distribution” so you cannot know it that’s a Spot, Pointlight etc.
Any ideas on this?
(btw maxscript returns all their properties without problem)
Regards and thank you for your help in advance.

Hola Víctor.
If NumParamBlocks() returns 0, your object has probably ParamBlock1 instead of ParamBlock2.
Search for ParamBlock type through the object subanims.

Thank you I never worked with the old fashioned ParamBlock1 by the way I was thinking they were auto translated, fortunatly I didn’t need that since having the LightObject* I manage to read the info I was needing.
Gracias
