Re-fixed bug in octree code that caused it to allocate 8 times as |
| 1622 |
|
much memory as it actually used(!) -- this was pointed out way back |
| 1623 |
|
in 1999 by Erik Reinhard and Erik Jansen, but the fix they gave me |
| 1624 |
< |
got lost in the slightly borken release process at the time. This |

got lost in the slightly broken release process at the time. This |
| 1625 |
|
should make a big difference in memory usage, especially for the |
| 1626 |

new mesh primitive. |

new mesh primitive. (I measured 30% less memory usage.) |

Corrected ray weights for material mixtures. |

Reduced the default -n setting for obj2mesh to take better advantage |
| 1631 |

of the smaller octree structure size. |

Fixed bug in shadow cache where it was adding surfaces with antimatter |
| 1634 |

holes cut in them to the obstructor list. Thanks to John Mardaljevic |
| 1635 |

for discovering and reporting the problem. |

Adding ability in mkillum to incorporate BSDF data in calculation. |
| 1638 |

Internal interface (raypcalls) now used in place of rtrace process(es). |
| 1639 |

|
| 1640 |

Fixed pixel alignment in pcomb for size reduction and enlargement. |
| 1641 |

|

Allow rtcontrib user to set -P and -PP options for persistent rendering. |
| 1643 |

The only caveat is that -n setting > 1 requires -PP rather than -P. |

Added -c option to rtcontrib to facilitate cumulative calculations. |

Fixed long-standing bug in source.cal, which caused it to produce |
| 1649 |

reversed anisotropic photometric distributions due to the |
| 1650 |

misorientation of the y-axis. Thanks to Zack Rogers for discovering |
| 1651 |

and helping debug this problem. |

Fixed long-standing bug in replmarks, where triangles with X-side |
| 1654 |
> |
aligned with Z-axis would cause incorrect rotations. Thanks to |
| 1655 |

Zack Rogers for finding this error. |

Added rsensor program to compute sensor signal for daylighting controls. |
| 1658 |

Funding for this component was provided by the Architectural Energy |
| 1659 |

Corporation in Boulder, CO, and directed by Zack Rogers. |

Added "planisphere" (stereographic) fisheye view type for traditional |
| 1662 |

daylighting analysis. Feature requested & explained by Axel Jacobs. |
| 1663 |

|
| 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). |

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. |

Added -N option to objview to support multiprocessing. |
