Version 3.6 (Released 10/21/04) |
| 1144 |
|
|
| 1145 |
|
Modified 4-byte RGBE encoding routine to avoid problems |
| 1146 |
|
when one or two primary values is negative and the other(s) |
| 1343 |
|
correctly. |

|
|
| 1348 |
|
Fixed bug in source occluder cache which caused consistency error |
| 1349 |
|
for distant sources and mist materials. (Thanks to Mark Stock for |
| 1489 |
|
behavior so I documented it rather than changing it. |

|
Fixed Russian roulette ray termination, which was doing the opposite of |
| 1495 |
|
what it should have been doing, resulting in overestimated values below |
| 1609 |

Added -h option to pcompos and pcomb to eliminate verbose headers. |

****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** |
| 1674 |
> |
Changed ".pic" extension to ".hdr" in all sources and documentation |
| 1675 |
> |
to improve interoperability with other software, since this has become |
| 1676 |
> |
the de facto extension for Radiance RGBE and XYZE pictures. Since file |
| 1677 |

extensions were never more than a convention in Radiance, this does not |
| 1678 |

affect operation, but may require the update of scripts, etc. written |
| 1679 |
> |
by others that assume the ".pic" suffix for Radiance output. |
| 1680 |

|
| 1681 |

Added -N option to objview to support multiprocessing. |
| 1682 |

Improved sampling of circular sources (source, sphere, ring types) with |
| 1684 |

quite a bit of help from David Geisler-Moroder. |
| 1685 |

|
| 1686 |

Added "rpict" and "rvu" variables to rad, and made these as well as |
| 1687 |
> |
the "oconv", "mkillum" and "pfilt" variables accept an alternate |
| 1688 |

command path in each case. Change suggested by Lars Grobe based |
| 1689 |

on similar Radzilla (radz) facility by Carsten Bauer. |
| 1690 |

Fixed rad -v N specification to use actual view name if one. |

Fixed error in mkillum calculation where it neglected indirect |
| 1694 |

source contributions from BTDF illum's. |

Added GMT and LATLONG header lines for Greenwich Mean Time and |

degrees North Latitude / East Longitude. |
| 1698 |

Added ability in vwright(1) to get view from command line arguments. |

> |
|
| 1703 |

Created genklemsamp(1) utility to generate samples suitable for |
| 1704 |
> |
BSDF-based annual calculations. This is the first Perl script to |

be added to Radiance. Hopefully, others will follow. |

Added klems_int.cal file to compute Klems bins for windows. |

evaluate average radiance over the standard Tregenza sky patches. |
| 1711 |
> |
|
| 1712 |
> |
Created dctimestep program to compute a set of sensor values or |
| 1713 |

a combined image for a particular time using the daylight |
| 1714 |

coefficient method. |
| 1715 |
> |
|
| 1716 |

Created src/rt/rayfifo.c for first-in/first-out handling of |
| 1717 |

multiprocessing by raypcalls.c. |
| 1718 |

Changed ranimate behavior so remote login under a different user |

home directory. |
| 1728 |

Changed standard transmission function normalization back to what |
| 1730 |

it was in version 3.5, following recommendation of David Geisler-Moroder, |
| 1731 |

who pointed out that the revised BTDF increased too much at grazing. |

|
| 1733 |

Changed rad behavior with -N >1 on single view to call rpiece. |

Updated SCons build system for MINGW compilation, thanks to Christian |

****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** |
| 1757 |

Changed behavior of rtrace and rtcontrib so that every scanline is |
| 1758 |
> |
not flushed when both -x and -y are set. This avoids flush delays |
| 1759 |
> |
in rtcontrib for large numbers of output files and delays while |
| 1760 |
> |
rendering images using rtrace with the -n option. |
| 1761 |

|
| 1762 |
> |
Added ability for rsensor to output ray origins and directions |

rather than actually loading octree and computing sensor value. |
| 1764 |
> |
|
| 1765 |

Fixed old bug in obj2rad where it would stop processing and |
| 1766 |

report a syntax error if the "void" type is used in the map file. |

Changed -sj (specular jitter) option to something called specular |
| 1776 |
> |
sampling (-ss), which if set less than 1 has the same behavior as |
| 1777 |
> |
the old -sj, but when set greater than 1, spawns multiple ray |
| 1778 |

samples from semi-specular surfaces. |

Fixed bug noticed by Randolph Fritz that caused ambient sync errors. |

Created pkgBSDF program to extract BSDF geometry and put it |

together with surface description suitable for inclusion in |

a Radiance scene. |
| 1798 |

Muted warning for "no light sources found" when there is at least |
| 1800 |

one glow object and interreflections are on (-ab > 0). |
| 1801 |

Fixed long-standing bug that caused underestimation of reflection |

Checked in cross-platform cmake build system created by Bill Hoffman |
| 1806 |

Fixed bug in matrix output of genBSDF introduced shortly before 4.1 release. |

|
| 1816 |

Made rvu more responsive in multi-processing mode when changing parameters. |
| 1817 |
> |
Explicit "new" command not needed to show changes, because it goes back |
| 1818 |
> |
to "immediate mode" once something is changed. Processing will be slow |
| 1819 |
> |
but response time quick until next "new" command. |
| 1820 |

Fixed major bug in transmitting proxy material sampling. |

Patched cmake build tools (changes by Zack Galbreath). |

Removed requirement for pflip -h to be given input file (can pipe from stdin). |

Added "Number of processes" slider to trad "Action" pane to control rad -N |
