Okay... One more question.

I've managed to get the blackbody shader applied to my light portal (which I am using as a single light source from my ceiling). But now Everything above the portals elevation is completely black. So instead of being able to see the corrugated metal deck above my steel joists, all I see is blackness. What gives? What do I need to adjust on the light portal allow the camera to see beyond it?
