[Radiance-general] instance primitive & xform

[Giulio Antonutto]

btw,

if the louvers shape is not well fit inside of a cube you may think of
grouping more louvers in a 'meta' instance to help radiance...

now rushing home,

ciao

I guess this is the trouble,

-a 1 -t..... -i 200

a missing 1

:-)

ciao

Hi!

 

I just tried to use the powerful 'instance' primitive, which is working
fine unless I try to use a repeated (array) transform:

 

void instance 001

8 ./Oct/s_enn.oct  -a -t 0 0 0.0064 -i 200

0

0

 

Results in:

 

oconv: fatal - bad transform for instance "001"

 

So clearly I'm doing something wrong here...

As far as I understand I do need the -a flag to repeat transform, right?

 

I'm testing a scene with very, very dense louvers, which is a perfectly
suitable case for instances I reckon.

For this scene I'm required to use the pmap/radzilla fork of Radiance.

Am I assuming correctly that the 'instance' primitive is supported in
(either?) of these versions?

 

Cheers,

 

-jelle
