Combining multiple Light Groups to one AOV

Hi,

Im currently working on a project that requires a mix of 2 seperate lightrigs. As renderoutput i will need all the lights on seperate AOVS. In order to not create 2 renderoutputs I was wondering if i can create two seperate "beauty" AOVs that add all light from rigA into one AOV and the same for rigB.


I was playing a bit around with LPEs and I was trying to generate another ar_aov on the actual lights, trying to give each Light 2 AOV Light Groups, but that also doesnt seem to work.


Is there any way to achieve this in htoA?


Thanks a mil

To put two light groups into one AOV, you can use an LPE like this:

C<RD><L.['light_rig1' 'light_rig2']>
