DAZ light shader issue

kyoreona

Hi,artists

since the instruction file written by official is still version 4.6...I have no idea and I'm totally an idot about IRAY , if anyone who can teach me how to make ceiling of the room to produce "light" by the function "light shader"?

Not using lights function , I'm playing with a totally closed room , no window ,door is closed , thank you for every answer

come back to thank you again!

I've made the effect I want! the light tube surface can bright any color light now! 

The "!Iray uber base" is so useful, by the way , what's "uber" mean ? When I load it to the surface I select , it provide me so many options on panel!

Uber is the german word for "over", but based on the way a lot of english speaking people use it I can't help but wonder if they think it is german for "ultra".

When I here the word Uber i think of ultra first.  and my parents were from Germany lol  so i grew up bi lingual if that helps any
