| 1621 |  | 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 | 
| 1624 | > | 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.  (I measured 30% less memory usage.) | 
| 1627 |  |  | 
| 1641 |  |  | 
| 1642 |  | 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. | 
| 1644 | + |  | 
| 1645 | + | Added -c option to rtcontrib to facilitate cumulative calculations. | 
| 1646 | + |  | 
| 1647 | + | ****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** | 
| 1648 | + | 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. | 
| 1652 | + |  | 
| 1653 | + | 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. | 
| 1656 | + |  | 
| 1657 | + | 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. | 
| 1660 | + |  | 
| 1661 | + | 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). | 
| 1667 | + |  | 
| 1668 | + | ===================== | 
| 1669 | + | Version 4.0 | 
| 1670 | + |  | 
| 1671 | + | Added -n option to rvu to provide parallel rendering. | 
| 1672 | + |  | 
| 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. |
