Wrote rxpiece tool that will render pictures using tiling and |
2718 |
|
can handle different output formats and hyperspectral pictures. |

shared volumes. Mainly a demonstration tool for RpictSimulManager |
2721 |
|
C++ class, but may have its uses. |
2722 |
|
|
2752 |
|
efficient, but standard output is not supported, nor is ASCII |
2753 |

Added experimental source-skipping method to rpict for scenes |
2756 |
– |
with large number of light sources. Currently works with |
2757 |
– |
rcontrib and separate srcsamp image-processing tool. Controlling |
2758 |
– |
rpict options are -dS for skip bitmap specification and -dC |
2759 |
– |
for correction coefficient image. Compile using -DSSKIPOPT |
2760 |
– |
to include this option. |

Added strnstr.c compatibility module in ray/src/common, since |
2756 |
< |
it isn't present on Linux-derivatives. |

Added WGMDfunc material type with programmable roughness and |
2759 |
|
separate modifier paths for the different components. |

Added gensurf -i option at the request of Peter Apian-Bennewitz |
2762 |
+ |
to reverse surface normals, mostly for data input, when it is |
2763 |
+ |
a bit more difficult to adjust. |
2764 |
+ |
|
2765 |
+ |
Added rad -N option to rholo call for multiprocessing when |
2766 |
+ |
mkillum and/or mkpmap are involved in octree prep. |
2767 |
+ |
|
2768 |
+ |
Added ability of gendaymtx to read EPW as well as WEA files. |
2769 |
+ |
When EPW input is provided, the 3-hour average dew point is |
2770 |
+ |
used to compute a more accurate precipitable water content |
2771 |
+ |
value. It currently does not use these data directly from |
2772 |
+ |
the EPW input, relying instead on a dew-point-to-W calculation. |
2773 |
+ |
This follows the request and recommendations of David G-M. |
2774 |
+ |
|
2775 |
+ |
Removed limitation in rfluxmtx, which was disallowing distant |
2776 |
+ |
and local receivers. Found this to be a perfectly valid approach |
2777 |
+ |
for some annual daylighting scenarios. |
2778 |
+ |
|
2779 |
+ |
Wrote new pvsum tool to handle cases dctimestep can't, like |
2780 |
+ |
spectral input pictures. It also adds a -N option for multi- |
2781 |
+ |
processing on Unix machines, which utilizes memory-mapped |
2782 |
+ |
inputs for efficient i/o sharing. |
2783 |
+ |
|
2784 |
+ |
Made it so genBSDF can use spectral rendering for a |
2785 |
+ |
more accurate photometric result. |
2786 |
+ |
|
2787 |
+ |
Changed default matrix representation to float rather than |
2788 |
+ |
double, which uses less RAM and supports faster operations |
2789 |
+ |
in general. Build with compiler flag: |
2790 |
+ |
-DDTnativeDTrmx_native=DTdouble |
2791 |
+ |
to get back higher precision representation. |
2792 |
+ |
|
2793 |
+ |
Taoning Wang updated genssky and gensdaymtx to provide illuminance |
2794 |
+ |
calibration and accept EPW files directly as input. |
2795 |
+ |
|
2796 |
+ |
Added -e expr and -f file.cal options to all rendering tools, not |
2797 |
+ |
just rcontrib/rxcontrib. Feature request from Peter A-B. |
2798 |
+ |
|
2799 |
+ |
Fixed slight bias in indirect calculation caused by ambient |
2800 |
+ |
collision detection, pointed out by Jon Sargent. New code |
2801 |
+ |
keeps track of rejected samples and sells them back to |
2802 |
+ |
later calls to get something closer to a true Poisson |
2803 |
+ |
sampling method. |
2804 |
+ |
|
2805 |
+ |
Altered rvu "origin" command to take shift amounts forward, |
2806 |
+ |
right, and up rather than taking an explicit origin, which |
2807 |
+ |
can be done easily enough with the "view" command. Peter A-B |
2808 |
+ |
requested (sort of). |
2809 |
+ |
|
2810 |
+ |
Added genglaze tool created by Taoning Wang to generate |
2811 |
+ |
spectral glazing materials based on CGDB data and models. |
