|
Fixed bug in source occluder cache which caused consistency error |
1349 |
|
for distant sources and mist materials. (Thanks to Mark Stock for |
1489 |

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

Added -spec option to falsecolor to restore original spectral color scale. |
1615 |
|
Also added "-s auto" option to automatically set the maximum value. |
1664 |
|
Modified -c option to rtcontrib so it can take a number of input |
1665 |
|
rays to average over, rather than only produce a single accumulated |
1666 |
|
record (which can now be done with -c 0). |

|
1673 |
+ |
****** 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 |
+ |
|
1683 |
+ |
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 |
+ |
|
1691 |
+ |
Fixed rad -v N specification to use actual view name if one. |
1692 |
+ |
|
1693 |
+ |
Fixed error in mkillum calculation where it neglected indirect |
1694 |
+ |
source contributions from BTDF illum's. |
1695 |
+ |
|
1696 |
+ |
Added GMT and LATLONG header lines for Greenwich Mean Time and |
1697 |
+ |
degrees North Latitude / East Longitude. |
1698 |
+ |
|
1699 |
+ |
Added gendaylit to distribution (finally). |
1700 |
+ |
|
1701 |
+ |
Added ability in vwright(1) to get view from command line arguments. |
1702 |
+ |
|
1703 |
+ |
Created genklemsamp(1) utility to generate samples suitable for |
1704 |
+ |
BSDF-based annual calculations. This is the first Perl script to |
1705 |
+ |
be added to Radiance. Hopefully, others will follow. |
1706 |
+ |
|
1707 |
+ |
Added klems_int.cal file to compute Klems bins for windows. |
1708 |
+ |
|
1709 |
+ |
Created genskyvec utility to sample a particular sky and |
1710 |
+ |
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 |
+ |
|
1719 |
+ |
Added -n option to rtrace for executing on multiple cores |
1720 |
+ |
using new rayfifo calls. |
1721 |
+ |
|
1722 |

===================== |
1723 |
+ |
Version 4.1 (Released 11/04/2011) |
1724 |
+ |
|
1725 |
+ |
Changed ranimate behavior so remote login under a different user |
1726 |
+ |
doesn't necessarily require the presence of the originating user's |
1727 |
+ |
home directory. |
1728 |
+ |
|
1729 |
+ |
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. |
1732 |
+ |
|
1733 |
+ |
Changed rad behavior with -N >1 on single view to call rpiece. |
1734 |
+ |
|
1735 |
+ |
Updated SCons build system for MINGW compilation, thanks to Christian |
1736 |
+ |
Kohler. |
1737 |
+ |
|
1738 |
+ |
Added -u option to rlam for unbuffered output. |
1739 |
+ |
|
1740 |
+ |
Modified dctimestep to accept sky vector and daylight coefficient matrix |
1741 |
+ |
or list of images to sum together, as suggested by Andy McNeil. |
1742 |
+ |
|
1743 |
+ |
Created genBSDF script to generate BSDF in Windows XML format. |
1744 |
+ |
|
1745 |
+ |
Modified mkillum to accept detailed geometry from BSDF XML files. |
1746 |
+ |
|
1747 |
+ |
Altered obj2rad to ignore zero normals (thanks to Jack de Valpine for |
1748 |
+ |
suggestions and help). |
1749 |
+ |
|
1750 |
+ |
Fixed bug in genklemsamp that caused non-uniform sampling over surfaces. |
1751 |
+ |
|
1752 |
+ |
Fixed bugs in rhoptimize and rhcopy for 64-bit compilation. |
1753 |
+ |
|
1754 |
+ |
Made a change to avoid problem using gcc --fast-math compile option. |
1755 |
+ |
|
1756 |
+ |
****** 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 |
1763 |
+ |
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. |
1767 |
+ |
|
1768 |
+ |
Updated reflection model according to EGSR 2010 paper by David |
1769 |
+ |
Geisler-Moroder and Arne Duer. |
1770 |
+ |
|
1771 |
+ |
Replaced C-shell version of falsecolor with Perl script written |
1772 |
+ |
by Axel Jacobs. |
1773 |
+ |
|
1774 |
+ |
****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** |
1775 |
+ |
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. |
1779 |
+ |
|
1780 |
+ |
Fixed bug noticed by Randolph Fritz that caused ambient sync errors. |
1781 |
+ |
|
1782 |
+ |
Fixed bug in findglare for reading picture files under Windows. |
1783 |
+ |
|
1784 |
+ |
Added options to pvalue to note other color spaces on reverse conversion. |
1785 |
+ |
Thanks to Erich Philips for the feature request. |
1786 |
+ |
|
1787 |
+ |
Added BSDF data-driven material type with full sampling support. |
1788 |
+ |
|
1789 |
+ |
Added BRDF calculations to genBSDF. |
1790 |
+ |
|
1791 |
+ |
Bug fixes in rsensor thanks to help from David Geisler-Moroder. |
1792 |
+ |
|
1793 |
+ |
Added variable-resolution BSDF support in renderers and genBSDF. |
1794 |
+ |
|
1795 |
+ |
Created pkgBSDF program to extract BSDF geometry and put it |
1796 |
+ |
together with surface description suitable for inclusion in |
1797 |
+ |
a Radiance scene. |
1798 |
+ |
|
1799 |
+ |
Muted warning for "no light sources found" when there is at least |
1800 |
+ |
one glow object and interreflections are on (-ab > 0). |
1801 |
+ |
|
1802 |
+ |
Fixed long-standing bug that caused underestimation of reflection |
1803 |
+ |
when specular component was below -st threshold in non-metals. |
1804 |
+ |
|
1805 |
+ |
Checked in cross-platform cmake build system created by Bill Hoffman |
1806 |
+ |
of KitWare and sponsored by NREL. This includes a qt-based |
1807 |
+ |
driver for rvu, which is built in the new subdirectory src/qtrvu. |
1808 |
+ |
|
1809 |
+ |
===================== |
1810 |
+ |
Version 4.2 (Release date 7/31/2014) |
1811 |
+ |
|
1812 |
+ |
Axel Jacobs added -cp and -palettes options to falsecolor. |
1813 |
+ |
|
1814 |
+ |
Fixed bug in matrix output of genBSDF introduced shortly before 4.1 release. |
1815 |
+ |
|
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 |
+ |
|
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.) |
1886 |
+ |
|
1887 |
+ |
Fixed bug in isotropic tensor tree sampling for impinging rays |
1888 |
+ |
exactly normal to surface. Thanks to Peter Apian-Bennewitz for |
1889 |
+ |
discovering and pointing out the error. |
1890 |
+ |
|
1891 |
+ |
Fixed double-counting bug in mirror material with alternate type. |
1892 |
+ |
Thanks to David Geisler-Moroder for spotting the problem and helping |
1893 |
+ |
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 |
+ |
|
1918 |
+ |
****** 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 |
+ |
|
1959 |

================================ |
1960 |
+ |
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 |
+ |
|
1977 |

Made header input and output the default behavior for dctimestep and |
1981 |
+ |
genskyvec. |
1982 |

|
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. |
2015 |
+ |
|
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 |
+ |
Fixed bug in antimatter source testing when antimatter |
2039 |
+ |
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 |
+ |
|
2055 |
+ |
Hopeful fix to deadlock issue under Mac OS X 10.10.x (Yosemite). |
2056 |
+ |
|
2057 |
+ |
Fixed early exit of rcontrib with internal error (sample behind sender) |
2058 |
+ |
discovered by Rob G. |
2059 |
+ |
|
2060 |
+ |
================================= |
2061 |
+ |
Version 5.1 (Released 8/17/2017) |
2062 |
+ |
|
2063 |
+ |
Fixed issue with vchars.mta and symbols.mta not being installed in |
2064 |
+ |
the appropriate metafile library location, with help from Rob G. |
2065 |
+ |
|
2066 |
+ |
Added ability to give quoted strings to output= directive in rfluxmtx. |
2067 |
+ |
|
2068 |
+ |
****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** |
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. |
2092 |
+ |
|
2093 |
+ |
Increased modifier limit to 10,000 in rcontrib. |
2094 |
+ |
|
2095 |
+ |
Fixed issues with glrad and added zoom response to mouse wheel input. |
2096 |
+ |
|
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 |
+ |
into a single CIE-XYZ measurement file for color BSDF interpolation. |
2104 |
+ |
|
2105 |
+ |
Jan Wienold updated evalglare to version 1.30 |
2106 |
+ |
|
2107 |
+ |
Roland Schregle added out-of-core photon mapping routines, which |
2108 |
+ |
may be compiled using the PMAP_OOC macro. |
2109 |
+ |
|
2110 |
+ |
Added -a option to getinfo for easy addition of header lines. |
2111 |
+ |
|
2112 |
+ |
Fixed issue with multiple records on picture output in rcontrib (and rfluxmtx). |
2113 |
+ |
Credit to Sarith Subramaniam for pointing out the problem. |
2114 |
+ |
|
2115 |
+ |
Made mkillum more tolerant of non-planar polygons in its sampling routines. |
2116 |
+ |
|
2117 |
+ |
Added "-recover" option to genBSDF to pick up where it left off. |
2118 |
+ |
|
2119 |
+ |
Fixed genBSDF issue that was created incorrect normalization of |
2120 |
+ |
Klems output. Thanks to David G-M and Christian Knoflach for |
2121 |
+ |
discovering the error. Also improved sampling of indirect irradiance |
2122 |
+ |
that showed some slight bias due to poor sample collision avoidance. |
2123 |
+ |
|
2124 |
+ |
Fixed long-standing issue with -aa 0 neglecting textures in calculating |
2125 |
+ |
surface shading. |
2126 |
+ |
|
2127 |
+ |
Fixed bug in ranimove introduced during photon map integration. |
2128 |
+ |
|
2129 |
+ |
Added check for steep sections of BSDF in pabopto2bsdf, creating narrower |
2130 |
+ |
peakes in those places and mitigating some normalization issues. |
2131 |
+ |
|
2132 |
+ |
Added view360stereo.cal by Mark Stock to handle 360-degree over/under |
2133 |
+ |
stereo views. |
2134 |
+ |
|
2135 |
+ |
Added MAX2SHADE macro to place limit on number of light sources |
2136 |
+ |
to precheck for obstructions. (Currently set to 200.) This |
2137 |
+ |
avoids excessive start-up times for scenes with many light sources. |
2138 |
+ |
Thanks to Axel Jacobs for pointing out the problem. |
2139 |
+ |
|
2140 |
+ |
Added -v option to obj2mesh to print out mesh statistics. |
2141 |
+ |
|
2142 |
+ |
Rewrote bsdf2rad from ground up and made it a standard part of build. |
2143 |
+ |
|
2144 |
+ |
Fixed bug in orientation of Reinhart/Tregenza sample generator in rfluxmtx. |
2145 |
+ |
|
2146 |
+ |
Added ability to perform shadow-testing through unproxied BSDFs with strong |
2147 |
+ |
through (direct-direct) component. |
2148 |
+ |
|
2149 |
+ |
Added {+|-}a options to genBSDF and bsdf2ttree for switching off reciprocity |
2150 |
+ |
averaging. |
2151 |
+ |
|
2152 |
+ |
Added bias to see through BTDFs with a strong "through" component |
2153 |
+ |
rather than scattering view rays. This is in lieu of peak extraction, |
2154 |
+ |
which looked to be too difficult from an implementation standpoint. |
2155 |
+ |
|
2156 |
+ |
Added bsdfview tool analogous to objview but for BSDF files (XML and SIR), |
2157 |
+ |
which calls bsdf2rad then rad with a few useful default views. |
2158 |
+ |
|
2159 |
+ |
========================= |
2160 |
+ |
Version 5.2 |
2161 |
+ |
|
2162 |
+ |
Created psketch program to apply non-photorealistic rendering to selected |
2163 |
+ |
objects, identified by modifier name(s). |
2164 |
+ |
|
2165 |
+ |
Added '*' and '/' operations to rmtxop for element-wise multiplication and |
2166 |
+ |
division of same-sized matrices. |
2167 |
+ |
|
2168 |
+ |
Changed falsecolor so "-s" option is adjusted to match legend if one. |
2169 |
+ |
|
2170 |
+ |
Falsecolor legend changes and improvements by David G-M and Stephen W. |
2171 |
+ |
|
2172 |
+ |
Fixed bug in peak extraction code that generated |
2173 |
+ |
"Bad call to SDqueryTreProjSA" error, reported by Lars Grobe. |
2174 |
+ |
|
2175 |
+ |
Increased maximum luminance to 10^7 in pcond to fix issue noticed |
2176 |
+ |
by Axel Jacobs where veiling glare not added for the sun under |
2177 |
+ |
some conditions. |
2178 |
+ |
|
2179 |
+ |
Increased maximum number of open files in rcontrib to the system upper |
2180 |
+ |
limit of 2048 rather than the default 512 under Windows. |
2181 |
+ |
|
2182 |
+ |
Added top-level resources directory with files from Rob Guglielmetti. |
2183 |
+ |
|
2184 |
+ |
Improved accuracy for peaky BSDFs and small light sources. |
2185 |
+ |
|
2186 |
+ |
Fixed issue with pmapdump noted by Axel Jacobs. |
2187 |
+ |
|
2188 |
+ |
Improved accuracy of bsdf2ttree when converting scattering interpolation |
2189 |
+ |
representatons with strong peaks. |
2190 |
+ |
|
2191 |
+ |
Tweaked peak-extraction code to work more reliably. |
2192 |
+ |
|
2193 |
+ |
Georg Mischler updated SCons build system. |
2194 |
+ |
|
2195 |
+ |
Rob Guglielmetti and Alex Swindler updated CMake build system. |
2196 |
+ |
|
2197 |
+ |
Modified pcomb so the first view seen in the inputs is written into header. |
2198 |
+ |
|
2199 |
+ |
Wrote rtpict script to run rtrace in parallel mode and simulate rpict with |
2200 |
+ |
-n option. |
2201 |
+ |
|
2202 |
+ |
Added ability to move forwards/backwards specified distance in rvu "origin" |
2203 |
+ |
command. Feature requested by John Mardaljevic, who essentially owns this |
2204 |
+ |
command, now. |
2205 |
+ |
|
2206 |
+ |
Reduced bias in ambient super-sampling method. |
2207 |
+ |
|
2208 |
+ |
Fixed bugs associated with zero transmission in chromatic tensor trees. |
2209 |
+ |
Thanks to Lars Grobe for pointing out issues. |
2210 |
+ |
|
2211 |
+ |
Added RAYPATH searching for -f options to genrev, gensurf, genworm, |
2212 |
+ |
bsdf2klems, bsdf2ttree, and pcomb. This makes behavior consistent |
2213 |
+ |
with rcalc, calc, and rendering tools. |
