Multiple Lights...
I was wondering why in indigo, it only renders one light type for me when i have more than 1??? What I mean is that I have the sun, and mesh emmitters, but it will only allow me to do 1 at a time??? Is this normal??? If not, how do I bypass it??? I have tried multiple render settings and enviorment settings and nothing changes. Do i have to have a mesh emmiter for a sun as well if I want emmiters in my photos??? Thanks
It may be also, because of the size of most emmiters. While you would see the glowing wire of a light bulb in sun light, a totally scattering bulb (where you can't see the inside) would appear much darker, because the same energy is spread over a greater area.
Most light bulbs I seen are rather latter.

i tried it, made sure it was a plane and even flipped the normals. In fact, i took off the exit portals just to see if sun was coming through at all on a similar render, and both of the renders with and without the actual "window" and they look exactly the same... somethings messed up needless to say

yeah i will post the scene. This is what happened when I set my emmiters as a diffuse (completely turned them off) and the sun was all the way up.
Yes this is with the sun ALL the way up..
And here is the scene. Just so you know, in this scene i deleted everything that wasn't in the shot just to reduce rendering times .

I'll look at it this afternoon when I get back home from work and have access to Blender.
Another thing to check would be the position of your sunlamp. I don't use sunlight for lighting very often, so I could be wrong about this, but I believe that the position of the lamp tells Indigo what time of day it is. Based on this image, it seems the sunlamp is low, close to the horizon, telling Indigo that it's either early morning or evening where light levels from the sun are low.
