Changed ambient calculation so that -ad will not limit recursion |
| 1420 |
|
depth, and a minimum of 27 samples will be sent out for each stored |
| 1421 |
|
ambient value, or 3 samples if -aa is 0 (caching off). |
| 1422 |

|
| 1423 |

Added -oM option to rtrace to report material (rather than modifier) |
| 1424 |
+ |
for cases where actual material is aliased or further up modifier chain. |
| 1425 |
+ |
|
| 1426 |
+ |
Rearranged the way ray contributions are computed so that it might be |
| 1427 |
+ |
possible to use rtrace to derive daylight coefficients and optical |
| 1428 |
+ |
transfer functions. The new -oTW option of rtrace produces color |
| 1429 |
+ |
contribution weights for each ray, which combined with the -ti (or -tI) |
| 1430 |
+ |
option permits the contribution of selected surfaces or sources to |
| 1431 |
+ |
be determined. Using the -oTW option, one should also specify |
| 1432 |
+ |
options "-dt 0 -aa 0 -as 0" for optimal results. In particular, |
| 1433 |
+ |
one cannot expect reasonable tallies with -ab >= 1 and irradiance |
| 1434 |
+ |
caching on (-aa > 0). |
| 1435 |
+ |
|
| 1436 |
+ |
The same code modifications included a change to the indirect computation |
| 1437 |
+ |
with caching switched off (-aa 0). Whereas before, the number of secondary |
| 1438 |
+ |
rays after the first bounce were half of the previous generation, they are |
| 1439 |
+ |
now determined by the surface reflectance, making for a better and faster |
| 1440 |
+ |
calculation. It should now be possible to compute many bounces with -aa 0, |
| 1441 |
+ |
which used to be prohibitively expensive. |
| 1442 |
+ |
|
| 1443 |
+ |
Added -T option to xshowtrace to trace rays to light sources. |
| 1444 |
+ |
|
| 1445 |
+ |
Added meta2bmp program to produce BMP files from metafile graphics. |
| 1446 |
+ |
|
| 1447 |
+ |
Added cct_x(t) and cct_y(t) to src/cal/cal/blackbody.cal to interpolate |
| 1448 |
+ |
CIE chromaticities for particular black-body temperatures. |
