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.) |
| 1886 |
> |
|
| 1887 |
> |
Fixed bug in isotropic tensor tree sampling for impinging rays |
| 1888 |

to fix it. |
| 1894 |
> |
|
| 1895 |
> |
Created rcollate program to resize and transpose matrix data for Andy |
| 1896 |
> |
McNeil's 5-phase annual simulation method. |
| 1897 |
> |
|
| 1898 |
> |
Added epw2wea conversion program by Christoph Reinhart. |
| 1899 |
> |
|
| 1900 |
> |
Implemented Perlin's improved noise function with help from Rahul Narain. |
| 1901 |
> |
This will change the appearance of renderings using this function. |
| 1902 |
> |
|
| 1903 |
> |
Added "origin" command to rvu as requested by John Mardaljevic |
| 1904 |
> |
to place view origin at selected point in scene. |
| 1905 |
> |
|
| 1906 |
> |
Switch to Perl versions of objview and objpict written by Axel Jacobs. |
| 1907 |
> |
|
| 1908 |
> |
Improved rendering speed of scenes with aliases by not entering new |
| 1909 |
> |
modifiers into table if they are the same as the previously defined |
| 1910 |
> |
modifier for that name. |
| 1911 |
> |
|
| 1912 |
> |
Made it so icalc and rcalc search RAYPATH directories for *.cal files |
| 1913 |
> |
given on command line. This simplifies script writing and makes these |
| 1914 |
> |
utilities consistent with other tools in Radiance. |
| 1915 |
> |
|
| 1916 |
> |
Added triangulation routine to handle convex polygons in obj2mesh. |
| 1917 |

****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** |
| 1919 |
> |
Made backface visibility apply to all material types, including |
| 1920 |
> |
transparent and translucent materials (except dielectric and interface). |
| 1921 |
> |
This makes the option useful in cases where adjacent trans surfaces |
| 1922 |
> |
are placed next to each other by a modeler that only understands |
| 1923 |
> |
volumetric objects. |
| 1924 |
> |
|
| 1925 |
> |
Changed dctimestep so that output matrices (-n > 1) are preceded by a |
| 1926 |
> |
header, and added support for float and double output formats with -o[fd]. |
| 1927 |
> |
|
| 1928 |
> |
Introduced eplus_adduvf program to compute user view factors for EnergyPlus. |
| 1929 |
> |
|
| 1930 |
> |
Changed image-plane sampling in rpict to use Hilbert curve, which gives |
| 1931 |
> |
less of a brushed/striped appearance to output pixels with -u- (default). |
| 1932 |
> |
|
| 1933 |
> |
Added ltview and ltpict Perl scripts contributed by Axel Jacobs, inspired |
| 1934 |
> |
by Rob Guglielmetti. |
| 1935 |
> |
|
| 1936 |
> |
Added header variables for NROWS, NCOLS and NCOMP to help standardize |
| 1937 |
> |
matrix files. This functionality has been incorporated into |
| 1938 |
> |
rcollate, gendaymtx, and dctimestep. |
| 1939 |
> |
|
| 1940 |
> |
Created rmtxop utility to operate on multi-component matrices. This |
| 1941 |
> |
facilitates some daylight matrix calculations, and provides a general |
| 1942 |
> |
tool for manipulating matrix data. |
| 1943 |
> |
|
| 1944 |
> |
****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** |
| 1945 |
> |
Introduced new Hessian-based error control in irradiance caching (ambient) |
| 1946 |
> |
calculation. Since the format of the stored ambient values is different, |
| 1947 |
> |
the old files will be rejected with an error message and must be removed. |
| 1948 |
> |
The programs may be compiled with the -DOLDAMB option if this is a problem. |
| 1949 |
> |
|
| 1950 |
> |
Added -p option to rcontrib to set function file parameters on a per-modifier |
| 1951 |
> |
basis to simplify bin evaluation. |
| 1952 |
> |
|
| 1953 |
> |
Created rfluxmtx program to compute flux transfer matrices from a sender |
| 1954 |
> |
surface to one or more receiver surfaces. (Renamed the file klems_int.cal |
| 1955 |
> |
to klems_full.cal in the process.) |
| 1956 |
> |
|
| 1957 |
> |
Added "-c" option to getinfo to execute command on data segment. |
| 1958 |

Version 5.0 (Released 9/18/2015) |
| 1961 |
> |
|
| 1962 |
> |
Changed rmtxop so it writes out same type as lesser of inputs unless |
| 1963 |
> |
directed otherwise using -f? option. |
| 1964 |
> |
|
| 1965 |
> |
Changed order of oconv arguments in rfluxmtx so user can specify input |
| 1966 |
> |
octree using -i option at the end instead of (or in addition to) a |
| 1967 |
> |
list of scene files. |
| 1968 |
> |
|
| 1969 |
> |
Added support for argument expansion to rfluxmtx and bug fixes. |
| 1970 |
> |
|
| 1971 |
> |
Fixed bug in indirect hemisphere sampling for some corner cases. |
| 1972 |
> |
|
| 1973 |
> |
Added default specular lobe to BSDF interpolation. |
| 1974 |
> |
|
| 1975 |
> |
Set minimum number of shadow checks before direct optimization (4). |
| 1976 |

|
| 1983 |
> |
****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** |
| 1984 |
> |
Changed pabopto2bsdf default behavior to add 90-degree rotation |
| 1985 |
> |
to bring pgII's definition of "up" in line with Klems axis |
| 1986 |
> |
conventions. Introduced a new header variable "upphi" to |
| 1987 |
> |
control this added rotation. Using "#upphi 90" in each |
| 1988 |
> |
BSDF input file gets back the original behavior, where it |
| 1989 |
> |
assumes that the up direction is 90-degrees from the X-axis. |
| 1990 |
> |
The default value of 0 corresponds to PAB's definition of |
| 1991 |
> |
the X-axis as being "up". |
| 1992 |
> |
|
| 1993 |
> |
Fixed bug in rsensor related to having many rows (altitude) and |
| 1994 |
> |
few columns (azimuth) in sensitivity file. |
| 1995 |
> |
|
| 1996 |
> |
Fixed floating point round-off error in new Hessian calculation |
| 1997 |
> |
for some sytems (Windows, primarily). |
| 1998 |
> |
|
| 1999 |
> |
Fixed bug in tensor tree BSDF code that caused bus error on |
| 2000 |
> |
some systems, and may have been source of other errors as well. |
| 2001 |
> |
|
| 2002 |
> |
(Above changes included in 4.2.2 patch release.) |
| 2003 |
> |
|
| 2004 |

Improved ambient extrapolation to avoid zero values. Actual |
| 2005 |
> |
threshold set to 5% of recorded value. |
| 2006 |
> |
|
| 2007 |
> |
Changed anisotropic Gaussian and Ashikhmin models so that |
| 2008 |
> |
illegal orientation vectors are dealt with more gracefully. |
| 2009 |
> |
|
| 2010 |
> |
Created wrapBSDF tool and incorporated into genBSDF along |
| 2011 |

with new rfluxmtx computation. |
| 2012 |
> |
|
| 2013 |
> |
Initial check-in of Roland Schregle's photon map integration. |
| 2014 |
> |
New 5.0a version designation as suggested by Andy McNeil. |

> |
|
| 2016 |
> |
Added left-hand coordinate sytems to rfluxmtx to correct |
| 2017 |
> |
problems with coordinate axis orientations pointed out by |
| 2018 |
> |
David Geisler-Moroder. |
| 2019 |
> |
|
| 2020 |
> |
Added color output to genBSDF (+C option) and support for |
| 2021 |
> |
color rendering of Klems and tensor tree data. |
| 2022 |
> |
|
| 2023 |
> |
Fixed another bug in rsensor that caused rays to be generated |
| 2024 |
> |
on opposite side of hemisphere even where sensitivity was zero. |
| 2025 |
> |
|
| 2026 |
> |
Fixed bug discovered by Jacob Jonsson in Klems BSDF |
| 2027 |
> |
interpolator that caused it to over-predict normal |
| 2028 |
> |
transmittance and reflectance. |
| 2029 |
> |
|
| 2030 |
> |
Added ability to read input from commands in dctimestep |
| 2031 |
> |
and rmtxop. |
| 2032 |
> |
|
| 2033 |
> |
Added photon map support to rad. Fixed some double-counting |
| 2034 |
> |
issues in photon-mapping spotted by David Geisler-Moroder. |
| 2035 |
> |
|
| 2036 |
> |
Added photon map support to trad. |
| 2037 |
> |
|
| 2038 |

definition follows potential obstructor in input. |
| 2040 |
> |
|
| 2041 |
> |
Fixed issue with missing character type identifier at head |
| 2042 |
> |
of genBSDF XML output. |
| 2043 |

|
| 2044 |
> |
Prompted by Roland S., added option to have pcompos -a order |
| 2045 |
> |
rows from top rather than bottom of image. |
| 2046 |
> |
|
| 2047 |
> |
Changed dctimestep to accept matrix as well as BTDF input |
| 2048 |
> |
in the VTDs invocation mode. This permits the output of |
| 2049 |
> |
rmtxop to be used in a pinch when combining multiple BTDF |
| 2050 |
> |
layers, although interreflection between layers is not |
| 2051 |
> |
accounted for properly as it is in the WINDOW program. |
| 2052 |
> |
|
| 2053 |
> |
Added Jan Wienold et al.'s evalglare to distribution. |
| 2054 |

| 2069 |
> |
Added ability to digest color (CIE-XYZ) input in pabopto2bsdf. |
| 2070 |
> |
This change alters the .sir (interpolant) format, so these files |
| 2071 |
> |
will need to be regenerated. Use the new "#colorimetry: CIE-XYZ" tag |
| 2072 |
> |
to enable on input. |
| 2073 |
> |
|
| 2074 |
> |
Rewrote bsdf2klems to support tristimulus color and call wrapBSDF. |
| 2075 |
> |
Did the same for bsdf2ttree. Function specifications still gray only. |
| 2076 |
> |
|
| 2077 |
> |
Reduced a problem where rvu or rholo would be slow to quit when |
| 2078 |
> |
run with many processes on a large model or one with a large |
| 2079 |
> |
ambient file (taking lots of memory). We were waiting for |
| 2080 |
> |
processes to quit one-by-one, which takes some time for each |
| 2081 |
> |
process as it disentangles its shared memory. We now |
| 2082 |
> |
wait for all the processes together, so they can disentangle |
| 2083 |
> |
in parallel. It can still take up to a minute in some cases, |
| 2084 |
> |
but not 10 minutes like it was taking before the fix. |
| 2085 |
> |
|
| 2086 |
> |
Enabled ambient cache value corral for all levels, not just final two. |
| 2087 |
> |
This may reduce errors in certain pathological scenes. |
| 2088 |
> |
|
| 2089 |
> |
Added -in option to rcalc, rlam, and total to limit the number of |
| 2090 |
> |
input records in hopes of circumventing Windows EOF issues on binary data. |
| 2091 |
> |
Also added -on option to rcalc and total for logical symmetry. |

Increased modifier limit to 10,000 in rcontrib. |
| 2094 |

|
| 2097 |
> |
Added missing definition of "ashik2" material type to reference manual. |
| 2098 |
> |
|
| 2099 |

Changed genBSDF to calculate device thickness assuming Zmax==0 so |
| 2100 |
> |
pkgBSDF will generate correct proxy geometry. |
| 2101 |
> |
|
| 2102 |
> |
Created pabopto2xyz tool to combine different sensor measurements |
| 2103 |

Added "-recover" option to genBSDF to pick up where it left off. |
| 2118 |
> |
|
| 2119 |
> |
Fixed genBSDF issue that was created incorrect normalization of |
| 2120 |

Fixed bug in ranimove introduced during photon map integration. |
| 2128 |
> |
|
| 2129 |
