Version 5.3 (Released September 1, 2020) | 
| 2241 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2242 | 
  | 
Created radcompare program to compare Radiance tool output to reference outputs | 
| 2243 | 
  | 
during unit-testing. | 
| 2314 | 
  | 
Added new depth, normal, and ID file types to radcompare. | 
| 2315 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2316 | 
  | 
Added BigEndian= header line for automatic byte-swapping in rmtxop | 
| 2317 | 
< | 
and radcompare.  Doesn't work quite as automatically as it should | 
| 2318 | 
< | 
for pvalue -r, currently. |

and radcompare. |

  | 
Added new "turbo" palette to falsecolor (thanks to Taoning). | 
| 2320 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2328 | 
  | 
Added -y option to gensky and gendaylit to support more accurate Michalsky | 
| 2329 | 
  | 
solar position calculation. | 
| 2330 |

Changed rsplit so specifying a space as the separator parses words |

  | 
between whitespace. | 
| 2333 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2334 | 
  | 
Added ability of vwrays, pinterp, and pmblur2 to read encoded depth files. | 
| 2339 | 
  | 
given as expressions of previously defined variables, etc. | 
| 2340 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2341 | 
  | 
Added -D and -n option to gendaymtx to output sun description and skip | 
| 2342 | 
< | 
matrix output on request. | 
| 2342 | 
> | 
matrix output on request.  A -M option was also added to output solar | 
| 2343 |

modifiers for rcontrib.  Support also added for leap days in WEA input. |

| 2346 | 
  | 
Updated eplus_uvf to work with IDF version 9.x, checking version number. | 
| 2347 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2350 | 
  | 
Made it so rmtxop and dctimestep undo any exposure applied to Radiance | 
| 2351 | 
  | 
pictures they may load. | 
| 2352 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2353 |

Added objutil utility to manipulate Wavefront .OBJ files. |

Added robjutil utility to manipulate Wavefront .OBJ files. | 
| 2354 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2355 | 
  | 
Fixed a crash related to rtrace -om or -oM with mesh instances containing | 
| 2356 | 
  | 
materials. | 
| 2360 | 
  | 
 | 
| 2361 | 
  | 
Eliminated unnecessary start-up procedures for rtrace when only ray-casting | 
| 2362 | 
  | 
is needed (i.e., no tracing or value output). | 
| 2363 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2364 | 
+ | 
Improved isotropic sampling method in bsdf2ttree using "zipper" approach | 
| 2365 | 
+ | 
applied in genBSDF. | 
| 2366 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2367 | 
+ | 
Added limit to memory used by high-resolution tensor tree BSDFs for | 
| 2368 | 
+ | 
cumulative cache during MC sampling (rendering).  Limit set to 250MBytes | 
| 2369 | 
+ | 
per BSDF for standard architectures. | 
| 2370 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2371 | 
+ | 
Added -n and -s options to bsdf2ttree to provide some user control | 
| 2372 | 
+ | 
over super-sampling. | 
| 2373 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2374 | 
+ | 
Improved surface normal codec used by ambient file to store orthonormal | 
| 2375 | 
+ | 
directions exactly. | 
| 2376 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2377 | 
+ | 
Improved peak extraction method, which was undervaluing transmission | 
| 2378 | 
+ | 
in many cases. | 
| 2379 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2380 | 
+ | 
New version of evalglare from Jan Wienold. | 
| 2381 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2382 | 
+ | 
Added -u option to gendaymtx to elide data columns (time steps) when | 
| 2383 | 
+ | 
the sun is not visible above the horizon. | 
| 2384 | 
+ |

Version 5.4 | 
| 2387 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2388 | 
+ | 
Added rcollate -c option to force operation to continue even if it | 
| 2389 | 
+ | 
seems unnecessary.  Made tool more robust. | 
| 2390 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2391 | 
+ | 
Added -t option to rcontrib (and rfluxmtx) to report progress after the | 
| 2392 | 
+ | 
given number of seconds. | 
| 2393 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2394 | 
+ | 
Added "test" target to makeall to run unit tests. | 
| 2395 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2396 | 
+ | 
Modified bsdf2ttree to allow different parameters per input SIR file. | 
| 2397 | 
+ | 
 | 
| 2398 | 
+ | 
Fixed issues with very large matrix files (> 2GB) in dctimestep, rmtxop, and rcollate. |
