# Line 2392 | Line 2392 | Added -t option to rcontrib (and rfluxmtx) to report p
2392   given number of seconds.
2393  
2394   Added "test" target to makeall to run unit tests.
2395 +
2396 + Modified bsdf2ttree to allow different parameters per input SIR file.
2397 +
2398 + Fixed issues with very large matrix files (> 2GB) in dctimestep, rmtxop,
2399 + and rcollate.
2400 +
2401 + Added -rf and -rb options to rmtxop to load front or back reflectance
2402 + matrix data from XML file rather than transmission.  (Lars Grobe suggested.)
2403 +
2404 + Improved behavior for coincident surfaces with different materials.
2405 + Rather than returning one surface or the other based on floating-point
2406 + vagaries, opaque materials are now preferred over transparent ones.
2407 + If the materials are both transparent or both opaque, then whichever
2408 + surface appeared later in the scene description will be selected.
2409 + This came of a request for consistent behavior with legal CAD output
2410 + from Peter Apian-Bennewitz.
2411 +
2412 + Added explicit tests for on-edge intersections with polygons.  This should
2413 + eliminate stray rays and tiny light leaks that often appear even in
2414 + well-constructed geometry.
2415 +
2416 + Added "-s up" option to pabopto2bsdf to allow for 180 degree symmetry,
2417 + meaning that data repeats after 180 degree rotation (as distinguished
2418 + from "-s bilateral" whose data is mirrored about a vertical plane).
2419 + Thanks to Helen Rose Wilson for the suggestion and informing me that
2420 + such a thing exists.
2421 +
2422 + Removed upper limit on number of modifiers in rcontrib.
2423 +
2424 + Put cap on maximum ambient gradient to avoid over-extrapolation of
2425 + poorly computed irradiance cache values.
2426 +
2427 + Added robjutil +T option to triangulate all faces in .OBJ description.
