[Radiance-general] Ecotect, DIVA and Radiance

[Iebele Abel]

Hi Bayanda, 

I don't know if this is of any help (I never worked with DIVA), but your problems reminds me to the release note of Radiance 4.1 which says that the -sj option has been changed to -ss:

****** COMPATIBILITY CHANGE ********
Changed -sj (specular jitter) option to something called specular
sampling (-ss), which if set less than 1 has the same behavior as
the old -sj, but when set greater than 1, spawns multiple ray
samples from semi-specular surfaces.
For details see: http://radsite.lbl.gov/radiance/refer/Notes/ReleaseNotes.html#Version%204.1


My best, 

Iebele
