Made it so ra_bmp only produces run-length encoded 8-bit output for |
| 1339 |
|
grayscale images that are tone-mapped. This minimizes circumstances |
| 1340 |
|
under which output scanline order is reversed. |
| 1341 |
+ |
|
| 1342 |
+ |
Fixed bug in rcalc where it sometimes wasn't parsing the input format |
| 1343 |
+ |
correctly. |
| 1344 |
+ |
|
| 1345 |
+ |
===================== |
| 1346 |
+ |
Version 3.7 |
| 1347 |
+ |
|
| 1348 |
+ |
Fixed bug in source occluder cache which caused consistency error |
| 1349 |
+ |
for distant sources and mist materials. (Thanks to Mark Stock for |
| 1350 |
+ |
finding the problem.) |
| 1351 |
+ |
|
| 1352 |
+ |
Fixed serious bug in source drawing routines for rpict, where the edges |
| 1353 |
+ |
of light sources were appearing through obstructions. (Thanks to Veronica |
| 1354 |
+ |
Sundstedt for pointing this out.) |
| 1355 |
+ |
|
| 1356 |
+ |
(The above were included in the 3.6.1 patch release.) |
| 1357 |
+ |
|
| 1358 |
+ |
Changed default temporary directory from /usr/tmp, which doesn't exist |
| 1359 |
+ |
on a lot of systems these days, to /tmp. |
| 1360 |
+ |
|
| 1361 |
+ |
Eliminated many unused files and programs from the distribution, including |
| 1362 |
+ |
the following programs that were being built but no longer used: |
| 1363 |
+ |
oki20 - printer driver for OkiMate 20 printer (B&W) |
| 1364 |
+ |
oki20c - printer driver for OkiMate 20 color printer |
| 1365 |
+ |
pcwarp - intended as more general substitute for macbetcal, |
| 1366 |
+ |
but never quite worked |
| 1367 |
+ |
ra_avs - convert to & from AVS image format |
| 1368 |
+ |
ra_bn - convert to & from Barneyscann format |
| 1369 |
+ |
ra_pr - convert to & from 8-bit Sun rasterfile format |
| 1370 |
+ |
ra_pr24 - convert to & from 24-bit Sun rasterfile format |
| 1371 |
+ |
thf2rad - convert GDS "things file" to Radiance scene format |
| 1372 |
+ |
If anyone is still wanting any of the above programs, let us know and we'll |
| 1373 |
+ |
reinstate it. |
| 1374 |
+ |
|
| 1375 |
+ |
Fixed bug in pcond's acuity simulation for small view angles (less than |
| 1376 |
+ |
4 degrees horizontally or vertically). Thanks to James Lee for figuring |
| 1377 |
+ |
this out. |
| 1378 |
+ |
|
| 1379 |
+ |
Added script to convert to/from ICT's Poskanzer Float Map, which I don't |
| 1380 |
+ |
care to support officially due to its machine-dependent byte order. |
| 1381 |
+ |
|
| 1382 |
+ |
Fixed bug that caused incorrect reporting of non-surface in set when |
| 1383 |
+ |
mixing meshes and instances. (Thanks to Jack de Valpine for discovery.) |
| 1384 |
+ |
|
| 1385 |
+ |
Fixed innacuracy in calculation of diffuse transmission in the presence |
| 1386 |
+ |
of pure specular (Fresnel reflection) using "trans" material. Thanks |
| 1387 |
+ |
to Christoph Reinhart for pointing out the error. |
| 1388 |
+ |
|
| 1389 |
+ |
Made internal change to tone-mapping library to use structure pointer |
| 1390 |
+ |
rather than stack, making code re-entrant and more up to modern standards. |
| 1391 |
+ |
|
| 1392 |
+ |
Added -pd option to handle depth-of-field blur in rpict. This requires |
| 1393 |
+ |
that the view directon (-vd option) include focal distance information, |
| 1394 |
+ |
which is now preserved by the various view file routines, and reported |
| 1395 |
+ |
by the vwright command. |
| 1396 |
+ |
|
| 1397 |
+ |
Added DBLUR variable to ranimate and pmdblur script to handle simultaneous |
| 1398 |
+ |
motion and depth-of-field blurring. Thanks to Visarc for funding this work. |
| 1399 |
+ |
|
| 1400 |
+ |
Added setting of focus distance in rvu ("focus" command) and rholo |
| 1401 |
+ |
('f'/"frame" command). |
| 1402 |
+ |
|
| 1403 |
+ |
Changed default remote shell in ranimate to "ssh" rather than "rsh", |
| 1404 |
+ |
which has been abandoned on most Unix systems due to security issues. |
| 1405 |
+ |
|
| 1406 |
+ |
Fixed behavior of source primitive using illum with no alternate |
| 1407 |
+ |
material. These now become transparent so one can see the sky or |
| 1408 |
+ |
light-probe background for use in image-based lighting. Previously, |
| 1409 |
+ |
the user needed to specify the background glow as the alternate |
| 1410 |
+ |
material for a distant illum source to behave properly. (This still |
| 1411 |
+ |
works.) |
| 1412 |
+ |
|
| 1413 |
+ |
Fixed some minor problems and inconsistencies with 16-bit/channel |
| 1414 |
+ |
TIFF i/o in ra_tiff. |
| 1415 |
+ |
|
| 1416 |
+ |
Created mksource program to generate distant sources for improved |
| 1417 |
+ |
image-based lighting with light probes. |
| 1418 |
+ |
|
| 1419 |
+ |
Changed ambient calculation so that -ad will not limit recursion |
| 1420 |
+ |
depth, and a minimum of 27 samples will be sent out for each stored |
| 1421 |
+ |
ambient value, or 3 samples if -aa is 0 (caching off). |
| 1422 |
+ |
|
| 1423 |
+ |
Added -oM option to rtrace to report material (rather than modifier) |
| 1424 |
+ |
for cases where actual material is aliased or further up modifier chain. |
