| 1724 | 
  | 
 | 
| 1725 | 
  | 
Changed ranimate behavior so remote login under a different user | 
| 1726 | 
  | 
doesn't necessarily require the presence of the originating user's | 
| 1749 | 
  | 
 |

****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** | 
| 1757 | 
  | 
Changed behavior of rtrace and rtcontrib so that every scanline is | 
| 1778 | 
  | 
samples from semi-specular surfaces. | 
| 1779 | 
  | 
 | 
| 1780 | 
  | 
Fixed bug noticed by Randolph Fritz that caused ambient sync errors. | 
| 1781 |

 | 
| 1782 | 
+ | 
Fixed bug in findglare for reading picture files under Windows. | 
| 1783 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1784 | 
+ | 
Added options to pvalue to note other color spaces on reverse conversion. | 
| 1785 | 
+ | 
Thanks to Erich Philips for the feature request. | 
| 1786 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1787 | 
+ | 
Added BSDF data-driven material type with full sampling support. | 
| 1788 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1789 | 
+ | 
Added BRDF calculations to genBSDF. | 
| 1790 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1791 | 
+ | 
Bug fixes in rsensor thanks to help from David Geisler-Moroder. | 
| 1792 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1793 | 
+ | 
Added variable-resolution BSDF support in renderers and genBSDF. | 
| 1794 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1795 | 
+ | 
Created pkgBSDF program to extract BSDF geometry and put it | 
| 1796 | 
+ | 
together with surface description suitable for inclusion in | 
| 1797 | 
+ | 
a Radiance scene. | 
| 1798 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1799 | 
+ | 
Muted warning for "no light sources found" when there is at least | 
| 1800 | 
+ | 
one glow object and interreflections are on (-ab > 0). | 
| 1801 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1802 | 
+ | 
Fixed long-standing bug that caused underestimation of reflection | 
| 1803 | 
+ | 
when specular component was below -st threshold in non-metals. | 
| 1804 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1805 | 
+ | 
Checked in cross-platform cmake build system created by Bill Hoffman | 
| 1806 | 
+ | 
of KitWare and sponsored by NREL.  This includes a qt-based | 
| 1807 | 
+ | 
driver for rvu, which is built in the new subdirectory src/qtrvu. | 
| 1808 |

===================== |

Version 4.2 | 
| 1811 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1812 | 
+ | 
Axel Jacobs added -cp and -palettes options to falsecolor. | 
| 1813 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1814 | 
+ | 
Fixed bug in matrix output of genBSDF introduced shortly before 4.1 release. | 
| 1815 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1816 | 
+ | 
Made rvu more responsive in multi-processing mode when changing parameters. | 
| 1817 | 
+ | 
Explicit "new" command not needed to show changes, because it goes back | 
| 1818 | 
+ | 
to "immediate mode" once something is changed.  Processing will be slow | 
| 1819 | 
+ | 
but response time quick until next "new" command. | 
| 1820 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1821 | 
+ | 
Fixed major bug in transmitting proxy material sampling. | 
| 1822 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1823 | 
+ | 
Patched cmake build tools (changes by Zack Galbreath). | 
| 1824 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1825 | 
+ | 
Removed requirement for pflip -h to be given input file (can pipe from stdin). | 
| 1826 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1827 | 
+ | 
Added "Number of processes" slider to trad "Action" pane to control rad -N | 
| 1828 | 
+ | 
option for rvu and batch rendering. | 
| 1829 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1830 | 
+ | 
Added -c option to vwrays to repeat pixels for rtcontrib. | 
| 1831 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1832 | 
+ | 
Reworked rtcontrib program and renamed to rcontrib.  New version runs much | 
| 1833 | 
+ | 
faster, especially on multiprocessor systems, and doesn't require as much | 
| 1834 | 
+ | 
memory.  No longer calls rtrace; instead does all the work itself. | 
| 1835 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1836 | 
+ | 
Added -d option to genskyvec to produce direct-only (sun no sky) vector. | 
| 1837 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1838 | 
+ | 
Added Ashikhmin-Shirley anisotropic BRDF model (ashik2) with help | 
| 1839 | 
+ | 
from Nicolas Boneel. | 
| 1840 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1841 | 
+ | 
Added Ruby rewrite of objview.csh by Rob Guglielmetti. | 
| 1842 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1843 | 
+ | 
Fixed bug in reciprocity for tensor tree BTDF representations.  Thanks | 
| 1844 | 
+ | 
to Andy McNeil for identifying the problem. | 
| 1845 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1846 | 
+ | 
Added MNAME and ZNAME variables to ranimove for debugging & testing. | 
| 1847 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1848 | 
+ | 
Created pmblur2 command to take motion and depth buffers from ranimove | 
| 1849 | 
+ | 
to compute a better motion blur. | 
| 1850 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1851 | 
+ | 
****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ******** | 
| 1852 | 
+ | 
Changed BSDF routines to use updated/corrected XML specification and | 
| 1853 | 
+ | 
removed depracated BSDF support from mkillum. | 
| 1854 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1855 | 
+ | 
Fixed behavior of i/o flushing in rcontrib with -c > 1 (averaging).  Thanks | 
| 1856 | 
+ | 
to Lars Grobe for help identifying this problem. | 
| 1857 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1858 | 
+ | 
Fixed bug in depth-of-field blur where view distance was measured from | 
| 1859 | 
+ | 
fore clipping plane rather than viewpoint.  Thanks to Peter A-B for | 
| 1860 | 
+ | 
pointing this out. | 
| 1861 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1862 | 
+ | 
Added options to dctimestep to allow multiple time steps (-n) | 
| 1863 | 
+ | 
and multiple output pictures or sensor files (-o).  Also added -i | 
| 1864 | 
+ | 
option to specify float (-if) or double (-id) input for sky matrix. | 
| 1865 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1866 | 
+ | 
Created gendaymtx program to compute annual sky patch matrix based | 
| 1867 | 
+ | 
on Ian Ashdown's implementation of Perez all-weather sky model. | 
| 1868 | 
+ | 
Output can be sent directly to dctimestep in ASCII or binary stream. | 
| 1869 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1870 | 
+ | 
Replaced existing gendaylit.c with improved version from Wendelin Sprenger | 
| 1871 | 
+ | 
and Jan Wienold of ISE. | 
| 1872 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 1873 | 
+ | 
Improved accuracy of ambient calculation for large -ad settings.  Thanks | 
| 1874 | 
+ | 
to Lars Grobe for noticing the problem. |
