+discovered by Rob G.
+=================================
-<
+Version 5.1
->
+Version 5.1 (Released 8/17/2017)
+Fixed issue with vchars.mta and symbols.mta not being installed in
+the appropriate metafile library location, with help from Rob G.
+Created pabopto2xyz tool to combine different sensor measurements
+into a single CIE-XYZ measurement file for color BSDF interpolation.
-+
-+
+Jan Wienold updated evalglare to version 1.30
-+
-+
+Roland Schregle added out-of-core photon mapping routines, which
-+
+may be compiled using the PMAP_OOC macro.
-+
-+
+Added -a option to getinfo for easy addition of header lines.
-+
-+
+Fixed issue with multiple records on picture output in rcontrib (and rfluxmtx).
-+
+Credit to Sarith Subramaniam for pointing out the problem.
-+
-+
+Made mkillum more tolerant of non-planar polygons in its sampling routines.
-+
-+
+Added "-recover" option to genBSDF to pick up where it left off.
-+
-+
+Fixed genBSDF issue that was created incorrect normalization of
-+
+Klems output.  Thanks to David G-M and Christian Knoflach for
-+
+discovering the error.  Also improved sampling of indirect irradiance
-+
+that showed some slight bias due to poor sample collision avoidance.
-+
-+
+Fixed long-standing issue with -aa 0 neglecting textures in calculating
-+
+surface shading.
-+
-+
+Fixed bug in ranimove introduced during photon map integration.
-+
-+
+Added check for steep sections of BSDF in pabopto2bsdf, creating narrower
-+
+peakes in those places and mitigating some normalization issues.
-+
-+
+Added view360stereo.cal by Mark Stock to handle 360-degree over/under
-+
+stereo views.
-+
-+
+Added MAX2SHADE macro to place limit on number of light sources
-+
+to precheck for obstructions.  (Currently set to 200.)  This
-+
+avoids excessive start-up times for scenes with many light sources.
-+
+Thanks to Axel Jacobs for pointing out the problem.
-+
-+
+Added -v option to obj2mesh to print out mesh statistics.
-+
-+
+Rewrote bsdf2rad from ground up and made it a standard part of build.
-+
-+
+Fixed bug in orientation of Reinhart/Tregenza sample generator in rfluxmtx.
-+
-+
+Added ability to perform shadow-testing through unproxied BSDFs with strong
-+
+through (direct-direct) component.
-+
-+
+Added {+|-}a options to genBSDF and bsdf2ttree for switching off reciprocity
-+
+averaging.
-+
-+
+Added bias to see through BTDFs with a strong "through" component
-+
+rather than scattering view rays.  This is in lieu of peak extraction,
-+
+which looked to be too difficult from an implementation standpoint.
-+
-+
+Added bsdfview tool analogous to objview but for BSDF files (XML and SIR),
-+
+which calls bsdf2rad then rad with a few useful default views.
-+
-+
+=========================
-+
+Version 5.2
-+
-+
+Created psketch program to apply non-photorealistic rendering to selected
-+
+objects, identified by modifier name(s).
-+
-+
+Added '*' and '/' operations to rmtxop for element-wise multiplication and
-+
+division of same-sized matrices.
-+
-+
+Changed falsecolor so "-s" option is adjusted to match legend if one.
-+
-+
+Falsecolor legend changes and improvements by David G-M and Stephen W.
-+
-+
+Fixed bug in peak extraction code that generated
-+
+"Bad call to SDqueryTreProjSA" error, reported by Lars Grobe.
-+
-+
+Increased maximum luminance to 10^7 in pcond to fix issue noticed
-+
+by Axel Jacobs where veiling glare not added for the sun under
-+
+some conditions.
-+
-+
+Increased maximum number of open files in rcontrib to the system upper
-+
+limit of 2048 rather than the default 512 under Windows.
-+
-+
+Added top-level resources directory with files from Rob Guglielmetti.
-+
-+
+Improved accuracy for peaky BSDFs and small light sources.
-+
-+
+Fixed issue with pmapdump noted by Axel Jacobs.
-+
-+
+Improved accuracy of bsdf2ttree when converting scattering interpolation
-+
+representatons with strong peaks.
-+
-+
+Tweaked peak-extraction code to work more reliably.
-+
-+
+Georg Mischler updated SCons build system.
-+
-+
+Rob Guglielmetti and Alex Swindler updated CMake build system.
-+
-+
+Modified pcomb so the first view seen in the inputs is written into header.
-+
-+
+Wrote rtpict script to run rtrace in parallel mode and simulate rpict with
-+
+-n option.
-+
-+
+Added ability to move forwards/backwards specified distance in rvu "origin"
-+
+command.  Feature requested by John Mardaljevic, who essentially owns this
-+
+command, now.
-+
-+
+Reduced bias in ambient super-sampling method.
-+
-+
+Fixed bugs associated with zero transmission in chromatic tensor trees.
-+
+Thanks to Lars Grobe for pointing out issues.
