1140   the stack limit.

1142   ==============================
1143 < Version 3.6
1143 > Version 3.6 (Released 10/21/04)
1144  
1145   Modified 4-byte RGBE encoding routine to avoid problems
1146   when one or two primary values is negative and the other(s)
# Line 1343 | Line 1343 | Fixed bug in rcalc where it sometimes wasn't parsing t
1343   correctly.

1346 < Version 3.7
1346 > Version 3.7 (Released 7/25/05)
1347  
1348   Fixed bug in source occluder cache which caused consistency error
1349   for distant sources and mist materials.  (Thanks to Mark Stock for
# Line 1489 | Line 1489 | line on the input.  This was not intentional, but I de
1489   behavior so I documented it rather than changing it.
1490  
1491   =====================
1492 < Version 3.8
1492 > Version 3.8 (Released 10/17/06)
1493  
1494   Fixed Russian roulette ray termination, which was doing the opposite of
1495   what it should have been doing, resulting in overestimated values below
# Line 1609 | Line 1609 | not being accounted for properly.
1609   Added -h option to pcompos and pcomb to eliminate verbose headers.
1610  
1611   =====================
1612 < Version 3.9
1612 > Version 3.9 (Released 3/30/08)
1613  
1614   Added -spec option to falsecolor to restore original spectral color scale.
1615   Also added "-s auto" option to automatically set the maximum value.
# Line 1666 | Line 1666 | rays to average over, rather than only produce a singl
1666   record (which can now be done with -c 0).
1667  
1668   =====================
1669 < Version 4.0
1669 > Version 4.0 (Released 3/12/10)
1670  
1671   Added -n option to rvu to provide parallel rendering.
1672  
# Line 1687 | Line 1687 | Added "rpict" and "rvu" variables to rad, and made the
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
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.
