The actual bin number is computed at run time based on ray direction |

and surface intersection, as described below. |

The number of bins must be specified in advance with the |

.I Rcontrib |

supports light source contributions from photon maps generated by |
| 294 |
+ |
.I mkpmap(1) |
| 295 |
+ |
with its |
| 296 |
+ |
.I -apC |
| 297 |
+ |
option. Enabling photon mapping is described in the |
| 298 |
+ |
.I rtrace |
| 299 |
+ |
man page along with its relevant settings. In photon mapping mode, |
| 300 |
+ |
.I rcontrib |
| 301 |
+ |
only supports contributions from light sources, not arbitrary modifiers. |
| 302 |
+ |
The |
| 303 |
+ |
.I -b |
| 304 |
+ |
option is supported along with its associated ray variables, as |
| 305 |
+ |
discussed above. Ray coefficients are also supported via the |
| 306 |
+ |
.I \-V- |
| 307 |
+ |
option. Using fewer photons than there are light sources for the photon |
| 308 |
+ |
density estimates results in omitted contributions, thus the bandwidth |
| 309 |
+ |
is clamped accordingly and a warning is issued. |
