There is an LEM bug in only the Windows 64 bit version of SU Podium V2 (2.2 or 2.3). We have corrected this bug and it is Version 2.4. Please download version 2.4 from the Full Eval page. Most likely you will not need to reactivate your license if you do not uninstall the previous version.
If you are seeing the below bug, you need to update to 2.4. The bug is very simple to recreate. Any LEM material that is assigned to a SketchUp face that is not a rectangle will render with extra and unpredictable triangle light faces.
Below are two examples. The left column shows renderings in Windows 32 or Mac versions. The right side shows what happens to the LEM light in Windows 64 bit version.
Win32 or Mac - OK |
Win64 - unexpected results |

Win32 or Mac - OK |

Win64 - Discreet, rectangles OK |
This bug only appears in the Windows 64 bit version of SU Podium V2 (2.2 and 2.3) To get predictable LEM lighting results with the Windows 64 bit version use descreet, rectangle faces for LEM material. This bug is being examined so that it can be fixed.
