[Radiance-general] lightpipes/ports

[Jan Wienold]

Hi Erico,

you probably should use the current version of photon-mapping(4.3), 
which is for the RADIANCE 3.7. Roland made this new version some weeks ago.
I'm not sure, if this helps in your special case, but I never had such 
problems with using photon-ports and I used it several times without any 
problems (I always used the 3.28 version for RADIANCE 3.5).

We are actually reorganizing our web-pages and unfortunately the English 
(web)version is not available and the German version shows a bug in 
direct linking. That's the reason, why I haven't posted it to the 
community yet.

Anyhow, it is already on a Web-page for downloading.
You can get it on:
http://www.ise.fraunhofer.de/german/fields/field6/mb4/index.html then 
follow link on "Lichtsimulation", then "RADIANCE", then "p-map"

Good luck!

Jan
