Added rxpict rendering tool based on C++ RpictSimulManager class. |
| 2715 |
|
Multi-processing and spectral output are supported. |
| 2716 |
|
|
| 2717 |

Wrote rxpiece tool that will render pictures using tiling and |
| 2718 |
+ |
can handle different output formats and hyperspectral pictures. |
| 2719 |
+ |
Only runs on a single machine, however -- no NFS locking on |
| 2720 |
+ |
shared volumes. Mainly a demonstration tool for RpictSimulManager |
| 2721 |
+ |
C++ class, but may have its uses. |
| 2722 |

| 2723 |

Fixed a bug in BSDF sampling of sources pointed out by |
| 2724 |
+ |
David Geisler-Moroder, which tended to overestimate specular |
| 2725 |
+ |
contributions for some BSDFs. |

Added crude ability to read and convert spectra to RGB in ximage, |

ra_bmp, and ra_rgbe programs. Also updated fast tone-mapping |

ra_bmp, ra_ps, and ra_rgbe programs. Also updated fast tone-mapping |

library to handle spectral HSR inputs at the same time. HSR |

input handling was added in a similar fashion to pcond and pvalue. |

Added handling of hyperspectral images to normtiff, a handy program |

for quickly tone-mapping Radiance RGBE, XYZE, and now hyperspectral |

Added handling of hyperspectral pictures to pextrem, though |

results are still reported in RGB. |

Added accurate conversion of hyperspectral pictures to ra_xyze. |

color when targeting 16-bit/comp., LogLuv, and float utput, |

and the approximate method for 24-bit RGB. |

Taoning added genssky -L option to specify global and diffuse |

Created C++ class for rcontrib and example tool rxcontrib, which |
| 2750 |

is an optional compile in the src/rt directory. The output |
| 2751 |

model is more general in some respects and the operations more |
| 2752 |

efficient, but standard output is not supported, nor is ASCII |
| 2753 |

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 |

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 |

a bit more difficult to adjust. |

Added rad -N option to rholo call for multiprocessing when |

mkillum and/or mkpmap are involved in octree prep. |

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 |

used to compute a more accurate precipitable water content |

the EPW input, relying instead on a dew-point-to-W calculation. |

This follows the request and recommendations of David G-M. |

Removed limitation in rfluxmtx, which was disallowing distant |

Wrote new pvsum tool to handle cases dctimestep can't, like |

spectral input pictures. It also adds a -N option for multi- |

inputs for efficient i/o sharing. |

Made it so genBSDF can use spectral rendering for a |

Changed default matrix representation to float rather than |
| 2788 |

double, which uses less RAM and supports faster operations |

in general. Build with compiler flag: |
| 2790 |

-DDTnativeDTrmx_native=DTdouble |
| 2791 |

to get back higher precision representation. |
