2240 < Version 5.3
2240 > Version 5.3 (Released September 1, 2020)
2241  
2242   Created radcompare program to compare Radiance tool output to reference outputs
2243   during unit-testing.
# Line 2314 | Line 2314 | column vector.  Also added ability to apply trailing u
2314   Added new depth, normal, and ID file types to radcompare.
2315  
2316   Added BigEndian= header line for automatic byte-swapping in rmtxop
2317 < and radcompare.  Doesn't work quite as automatically as it should
2318 < for pvalue -r, currently.
2317 > and radcompare.
2318  
2319   Added new "turbo" palette to falsecolor (thanks to Taoning).
2320  
# Line 2329 | Line 2328 | Added support for loading RGBE images into matrices in
2328   Added -y option to gensky and gendaylit to support more accurate Michalsky
2329   solar position calculation.
2330  
2331 < Changed rsplit so specifying a space as the separator parses words
2331 > Changed rsplit, so specifying a space as the separator parses words
2332   between whitespace.
2333  
2334   Added ability of vwrays, pinterp, and pmblur2 to read encoded depth files.
# Line 2351 | Line 2350 | Fix to glarendx issues with dgi calculation.
2350   Made it so rmtxop and dctimestep undo any exposure applied to Radiance
2351   pictures they may load.
2352  
2353 < Added objutil utility to manipulate Wavefront .OBJ files.
2353 > Added robjutil utility to manipulate Wavefront .OBJ files.
2354  
2355   Fixed a crash related to rtrace -om or -oM with mesh instances containing
2356   materials.
# Line 2364 | Line 2363 | is needed (i.e., no tracing or value output).
2363  
2364   Improved isotropic sampling method in bsdf2ttree using "zipper" approach
2365   applied in genBSDF.
2366 +
2367 + Added limit to memory used by high-resolution tensor tree BSDFs for
2368 + cumulative cache during MC sampling (rendering).  Limit set to 250MBytes
2369 + per BSDF for standard architectures.
2370 +
2371 + Added -n and -s options to bsdf2ttree to provide some user control
2372 + over super-sampling.
2373 +
2374 + Improved surface normal codec used by ambient file to store orthonormal
2375 + directions exactly.
2376 +
2377 + Improved peak extraction method, which was undervaluing transmission
2378 + in many cases.
2379 +
2380 + New version of evalglare from Jan Wienold.
2381 +
2382 + Added -u option to gendaymtx to elide data columns (time steps) when
2383 + the sun is not visible above the horizon.
2384 +
2385 + =========================
2386 + Version 5.4
2387 +
2388 + Added rcollate -c option to force operation to continue even if it
2389 + seems unnecessary.  Made tool more robust.
