# Line 1565 | Line 1565 | Added -V option to rtcontrib to report actual contribu
1565   just ray coefficients.
1566  
1567   Fixed bug in ranimate that caused it to fail in continuation of renderings.
1568 +
1569 + Renamed librt.a to librtrad.a, to avoid conflict on Solaris. Almost
1570 + everything now gets linked to -lrtrad instead of -lrt.
1571 +
1572 + Fixed problem with large sample sets, so -u+ option now is truly random.
1573 + Thanks to Rick Mistrick and Younju Yoon for identifying this problem,
1574 + which was related to a poorly designed hash function.
1575 +
1576 + Changed -u+ to be the default setting in rtrace (only).
1577 +
1578 + Fixed binary i/o for rlam and vwrays under Windows.
1579 +
1580 + Added tmCvLums() to tone-mapping routines using a 16-bit lookup table
1581 + on IEEE floats, which is also used to improve speed of COLOR conversions,
1582 + especially on machines with slow log() calls.  The first call to
1583 + tmCvLums(), tmCvGrays(), or tmCvColors() initializes the table.
1584 +
1585 + Created optics2rad.csh script to convert from Optics 5 material output
1586 + to something correct for Radiance.  Built on old glazing.cal function,
1587 + which is actually incorrect so removed from the distribution.
1588 +
1589 + Fixed nuisance bug in ximage under some SGI machines that caused it to
1590 + choose an inappropriate visual and display incorrect colors.  (Thanks
1591 + to Oskar Itzinger for debugging the problem.)
1592 +
1593 + Fixed long-standing inaccuracy of pcompos -t and +t thresholding options.
1594 +
1595 + Fixed bug in handling of views with tabs rather than spaces.
1596 +
1597 + Fixed bug related to alias of alias.
1598 +
1599 + ****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ********
1600 + Changed default sky turbidity in gensky from the original default of
1601 + 2.75 to the CIE 110-1994 standard value of 2.45.  Thanks to Marilyne
1602 + Anderson of MIT for pointing out this discrepancy.
1603 +
1604 + Added -o option to ra_xyze to produce original pixel values.
1605 +
1606 + Fixed bug in tracing of virtual sources, where intervening glazing was
1607 + not being accounted for properly.
1608 +
1609 + Added -h option to pcompos and pcomb to eliminate verbose headers.
1610 +
1611 + =====================
1612 + Version 3.9
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.
