.SH NAME |

|
rpict - generate a RADIANCE picture |
| 89 |
|
.BI -vd " xd yd zd" |
| 90 |
|
Set the view direction vector to |
| 91 |
|
.I "xd yd zd". |
| 92 |
+ |
The length of this vector indicates the focal distance as needed by the |
| 93 |
+ |
.I \-pd |
| 94 |
+ |
option, described below. |
| 95 |
|
.TP |
| 96 |
|
.BI -vu " xd yd zd" |
| 97 |
|
Set the view up vector (vertical direction) to |
| 166 |
|
.BI -vf \ file |
| 167 |
|
Get view parameters from |
| 168 |
|
.I file, |
| 169 |
< |
which may be a picture or a file created by rview (with the "view" command). |
| 169 |
> |
which may be a picture or a file created by rvu (with the "view" command). |
| 170 |
|
.TP |
| 171 |
|
.BI -x \ res |
| 172 |
|
Set the maximum x resolution to |
| 229 |
|
.I \-pm |
| 230 |
|
option, to avoid the ghosting effect of too few time samples. |
| 231 |
|
.TP |
| 232 |
+ |
.BI -pd \ dia |
| 233 |
+ |
Set the pixel depth-of-field aperture to a diameter of |
| 234 |
+ |
.I dia |
| 235 |
+ |
(in world coordinates). |
| 236 |
+ |
This will be used in conjunction with the view focal distance, indicated |
| 237 |
+ |
by the length of the view direction vector given in the |
| 238 |
+ |
.I \-vd |
| 239 |
+ |
option. |
| 240 |
+ |
It is not advisable to use this option in combination with the |
| 241 |
+ |
.I pdfblur(1) |
| 242 |
+ |
program, since one takes the place of the other. |
| 243 |
+ |
However, it may improve results with |
| 244 |
+ |
.I pdfblur |
| 245 |
+ |
to use a very small fraction with the |
| 246 |
+ |
.I \-pd |
| 247 |
+ |
option, to avoid the ghosting effect of too few samples. |
| 248 |
+ |
.TP |
| 249 |
|
.BI -dj \ frac |
| 250 |
|
Set the direct jittering to |
| 251 |
|
.I frac. |
| 472 |
|
.I Getinfo(1) |
| 473 |
|
may be used to print out this information. |

.TP |

.BI -ae \ mat |

.BI -ae \ mod |
| 476 |
|
Append |
| 477 |
< |
.I mat |
| 477 |
> |
.I mod |
| 478 |
|
to the ambient exclude list, |
| 479 |
|
so that it will not be considered during the indirect calculation. |
| 480 |
|
This is a hack for speeding the indirect computation by |
| 481 |
|
ignoring certain objects. |
| 482 |
|
Any object having |
| 483 |
< |
.I mat |
| 483 |
> |
.I mod |
| 484 |
|
as its modifier will get the default ambient |
| 485 |
|
level rather than a calculated value. |
| 486 |
< |
Any number of excluded materials may be given, but each |
| 486 |
> |
Any number of excluded modifiers may be given, but each |
| 487 |
|
must appear in a separate option. |
| 488 |
|
.TP |
| 489 |
< |
.BI -ai \ mat |

.BI -ai \ mod |

Add |

< |
.I mat |
| 491 |

.I mod |
| 492 |
|
to the ambient include list, |
| 493 |

so that it will be considered during the indirect calculation. |

The program can use either an include list or an exclude |

The RAYPATH environment variable determines which directories are |

Boolean switch to control uncorrelated random sampling. |
| 560 |
+ |
When "off", a low-discrepancy sequence is used, which reduces |
| 561 |
+ |
variance but can result in a brushed appearance in specular highlights. |
| 562 |
+ |
When "on", pure Monte Carlo sampling is used in all calculations. |
| 563 |

.TP |
| 564 |
|
.BI -lr \ N |
| 565 |
|
Limit reflections to a maximum of |
| 566 |
|
.I N. |
| 567 |
+ |
If |
| 568 |
+ |
.I N |
| 569 |
+ |
is zero, then Russian roulette is used for ray |
| 570 |
+ |
termination, and the |
| 571 |
+ |
.I -lw |
| 572 |
+ |
setting (below) must be positive. |
| 573 |
+ |
If N is a negative integer, then this sets the upper limit |
| 574 |
+ |
of reflections past which Russian roulette will not be used. |
| 575 |
+ |
In scenes with dielectrics and total internal reflection, |
| 576 |
+ |
a setting of 0 (no limit) may cause a stack overflow. |
| 577 |

.TP |

.BI -lw \ frac |
| 579 |
|
Limit the weight of each ray to a minimum of |
| 580 |
|
.I frac. |
| 581 |
< |
During ray-tracing, a record is kept of the final contribution |
| 582 |

a ray would have to the image. |

If it is less then the specified minimum, the ray is not traced. |
