# Line 2157 | Line 2157 | Added bsdfview tool analogous to objview but for BSDF
2157   which calls bsdf2rad then rad with a few useful default views.
2158  
2159   =========================
2160 < Version 5.2
2160 > Version 5.2 (Release October 8, 2018)
2161  
2162   Created psketch program to apply non-photorealistic rendering to selected
2163   objects, identified by modifier name(s).
# Line 2221 | Line 2221 | optional build in src/cv/.
2221   Fixed bug in rcontrib with virtual sources, where pretest was adding
2222   to modifier accumulation buffers.  Reported by Mostapha.
2223  
2224 < Added an "sBSDF" material type that explicitly checks for peak extraction.
2224 > Added an "aBSDF" material type that explicitly checks for peak extraction.
2225   Its arguments are the same as the original "BSDF" type, but without the
2226   thickness parameter, as proxy geometry is not supported by this new type.
2227   The old "BSDF" type no longer does peak extraction under any circumstances,
2228   since this behavior is superfluous for proxied geometry.
2229 +
2230 + Added -r option to bsdf2rad (and bsdfview) to fix BSDF min and max range
2231 + for comparing BSDFs.
2232 +
2233 + Fixed issue with pfilt -m option and uneven image size changes pointed
2234 + out by Rob Shakespeare.
2235 +
2236 + Updates to evalglare and gendaylit from Jan Wienold, including new
2237 + colored sky option.
2238 +
2239 + =========================
2240 + Version 5.3
2241 +
2242 + Created radcompare program to compare Radiance tool output to reference outputs
2243 + during unit-testing.
2244 +
2245 + Fixed issue reading very large files (> 2 GBytes) in rcollate.
2246 +
2247 + Made picking function in rvu ignore transparent and void surfaces.
2248 +
2249 + Added -orRxX options to rtrace to enable output of mirrored and unmirrored
2250 + contributions and distances to enable new types of reprojections.  This also
2251 + cleaned up and unified handling of effective ray lengths throughout code.
2252 +
2253 + Bug fixes from Jan Wienold for evalglare.
2254 +
2255 + Changed indexed (numbered) output from dctimestep to start from 0 rather
2256 + than 1, to make it more consistent with expected input naming.
2257 +
2258 + Increased default sampling in bsdf2klems (-n option) to 1024.
2259 +
2260 + Fixed an issue noticed by David G-M that was causing genBSDF to bias
2261 + isotropic tensor tree samples resulting in subsequent failure of
2262 + peak extraction with "aBSDF" type.
2263 +
2264 + Introduced max() and min() functions to .cal library.
2265 +
2266 + Added random incident patch sampling to bsdf2klems to improve accuracy
2267 + with scattering interpolation representation input (e.g., from
2268 + pabopto2bsdf).  The other input types already sampled incident patch area.
2269 +
2270 + Added gendaymtx -A option to compute average sky over all the input
2271 + time steps.
2272 +
2273 + Added ability to output color image from rtrace with any of -ovrx options.
2274 +
2275 + Changed rlam behavior so -iaN reads N lines from a stream rather than N
2276 + characters.  This seems more useful, since -ibN is somewhat redundant with
2277 + the old behavior.
2278 +
2279 + Created rsplit program as compliment to rlam and to handle more complex
2280 + rtrace output into separate files or streams.
2281 +
2282 + Improved getinfo so that it can also hop over resolution string with -c
2283 + and header elide mode.
2284 +
2285 + Made pvalue -u option mean "uncompressed" with -r.
