[Radiance-general] Problems with RAD

[Alex Krickx]

Hi Rob,

Thanks for your response. The files are indeed in my current directory - I
thought the path was ok because when I type in "oconv mod3.rad
summer_sky.rad > summer.oct" without "./"s into the command editor I
generate the octree correctly - am I mistaken?

Thanks,
Alex
