Feature requested by John Mardaljevic, who essentially owns this +command, now. + +Reduced bias in ambient super-sampling method. + +Fixed bugs associated with zero transmission in chromatic tensor trees. +Thanks to Lars Grobe for pointing out issues. + +Added RAYPATH searching for -f options to genrev, gensurf, genworm, +bsdf2klems, bsdf2ttree, and pcomb. This makes behavior consistent +with rcalc, calc, and rendering tools. + +Worked with Randolph Fritz to fix some issues with ies2rad and newer +IESNA63 standards. + +Resurrected original bsdf2rad test program, renaming it bsdf2rado. Still an +optional build in src/cv/. + +Fixed bug in rcontrib with virtual sources, where pretest was adding +to modifier accumulation buffers. Reported by Mostapha. + +Added an "aBSDF" material type that explicitly checks for peak extraction. +Its arguments are the same as the original "BSDF" type, but without the +thickness parameter, as proxy geometry is not supported by this new type. +The old "BSDF" type no longer does peak extraction under any circumstances, +since this behavior is superfluous for proxied geometry. + +Added -r option to bsdf2rad (and bsdfview) to fix BSDF min and max range +for comparing BSDFs. + +Fixed issue with pfilt -m option and uneven image size changes pointed +out by Rob Shakespeare. + +Updates to evalglare and gendaylit from Jan Wienold, including new +colored sky option. + +========================= +Version 5.3
