# Line 1817 | Line 1817 | Made rvu more responsive in multi-processing mode when
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 +
1821 + Fixed major bug in transmitting proxy material sampling.
1822 +
1823 + Patched cmake build tools (changes by Zack Galbreath).
1824 +
1825 + Removed requirement for pflip -h to be given input file (can pipe from stdin).
1826 +
1827 + Added "Number of processes" slider to trad "Action" pane to control rad -N
1828 + option for rvu and batch rendering.
1829 +
1830 + Added -c option to vwrays to repeat pixels for rtcontrib.
1831 +
1832 + Reworked rtcontrib program and renamed to rcontrib.  New version runs much
1833 + faster, especially on multiprocessor systems, and doesn't require as much
1834 + memory.  No longer calls rtrace; instead does all the work itself.
1835 +
1836 + Added -d option to genskyvec to produce direct-only (sun no sky) vector.
1837 +
1838 + Added Ashikhmin-Shirley anisotropic BRDF model (ashik2) with help
1839 + from Nicolas Boneel.
1840 +
1841 + Added Ruby rewrite of objview.csh by Rob Guglielmetti.
1842 +
1843 + Fixed bug in reciprocity for tensor tree BTDF representations.  Thanks
1844 + to Andy McNeil for identifying the problem.
1845 +
1846 + Added MNAME and ZNAME variables to ranimove for debugging & testing.
1847 +
1848 + Created pmblur2 command to take motion and depth buffers from ranimove
1849 + to compute a better motion blur.
1850 +
1851 + ****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ********
1852 + Changed BSDF routines to use updated/corrected XML specification and
1853 + removed depracated BSDF support from mkillum.
1854 +
1855 + Fixed behavior of i/o flushing in rcontrib with -c > 1 (averaging).  Thanks
1856 + to Lars Grobe for help identifying this problem.
1857 +
1858 + Fixed bug in depth-of-field blur where view distance was measured from
1859 + fore clipping plane rather than viewpoint.  Thanks to Peter A-B for
1860 + pointing this out.
1861 +
1862 + Added options to dctimestep to allow multiple time steps (-n)
1863 + and multiple output pictures or sensor files (-o).  Also added -i
1864 + option to specify float (-if) or double (-id) input for sky matrix.
1865 +
1866 + Created gendaymtx program to compute annual sky patch matrix based
1867 + on Ian Ashdown's implementation of Perez all-weather sky model.
1868 + Output can be sent directly to dctimestep in ASCII or binary stream.
1869 +
1870 + Replaced existing gendaylit.c with improved version from Wendelin Sprenger
1871 + and Jan Wienold of ISE.
1872 +
1873 + Improved accuracy of ambient calculation for large -ad settings.  Thanks
1874 + to Lars Grobe for noticing the problem.
1875 +
1876 + Added -r option to gendaymtx to rotate the sky the specified number of
1877 + degrees about the zenith as suggested by A. McNeil.
1878 +
1879 + Axel Jacobs added -pal eco color map that does a blue-red-yellow scale.
1880 +
1881 + Created bsdf2klems tool to convert from various BSDF representations to
1882 + Klems basis matrix in XML file.
1883 +
1884 + Fixed problem with inappropriate reciprocity enforcement on tensor
1885 + tree reduction in genBSDF.  (Thanks to A.McNeil for discovering issue.)
