Light layers count

Hi, I have 3DSMax 2012 with SP1 and HF1 installed, and using Maxigo 3.0.7.
I need to use more than 7 light layers for Maxigo IES modifiers in my project.
Where can I set light layers count? I can't believe Maxigo cannot use more than 7
of them.

thanks for rapid reply, my deadline is truly deadly. Richard.

I'm not entirely sure what was the maximum number. I know it was limited though. So if you say 7, then it may really be the limit.

Limit is not in Indigo renderer but in Maxigo exporter. Blendigo exporter has no limit. I did test in Blender.
Is there any possibility to have no limits in Maxigo in the future?

Indigo takes up to 16 light layers I believe.

Really? I didn't know Indigo has a limitation.

Future version of Maxigo has no limits, technically.

Nevermind what I said, I just made a scene with 65 layers...

edit: in fact I had to reboot after I started a scene with 513, Indigo ate all the ram and asked for more... but no error.
