Hello,

when using planar emitters the light is fired into the normals direction. Does the LightWave plugin supports the double sided flag in the surface editor so that it emits in both directions? Thanks.

No, this feature is not supported in the render engine. You'll have to duplicate the emitter plane and rotate it to emit light in the other direction too.
