[Radiance-general] Radzilla again

[Giulio Antonutto]

this is the usual problem of defining your 'environment variables' or
putting the libraries somewhere on the disk.

The shortcut is, when compiling radzilla, indicate the location of these
libraries and save these files there.
Just look for rayinit.cal on your disk, is it there? If not you need to
download the libraries (look either on Carsten web site or on the
official radiance web site)

If you have a precompiled version of radiance, just look over the past
messages for environmental variables, there should be a full lot of
messages about this out there.

you need to, depending on your terminal, define a variable called
RAYPATH that tells the terminal where radiance libraries are kept
(assuming you installed them).

just try to understand if you are using bash ($) or tcsh (%) first (open
the terminal and look for the last character before the blinking cursor,
is it % or $ ?),
then locate the user profile file (that has a different name depending
on the above... it may be ~/.bash_profile for bash and ~/.tcshrc if you
use tcsh).
add the proper line to define RAYPATH

NOW BE REALLY CAREFUL! IF YOU DO A MISTAKE IT IS DIFFICULT TO GO BACK.
so I would suggest you to try using a text editor to change the file...
and remember to use UNIX line ending. Try with a copy of the file 1st,
just to be sure.

When you have done check by
opening a new terminal
typing env
you should show the new defined variable:

RAYPATH=........

ciao,

giulio

PS which platform are you using radzilla on?

Ida,

 

try this:

 

rzpict -x 600 -y 400  -vp 61 14 -29 -vd -3 -0.4 1 -vu
0 0 1 -av  .6 .6
.6  -o image.pic scene.zoct

 

the trick is the '-o image.pic'

 

hope this works,

 

giulio

Thanks Francesco,

 

I have done test it by putting /rzpict -vp 61 14 -29
-vd -3 -0.4 1 -av
> .6 .6 .6  -x 600 -y 400 scene.zoct  but it come out
the anonymous
character (is not image). Is it having any fix value
for width and
height? Or is it I'm did the wrong way?

 

Thanks,

daz
