[Radiance-general] Radiance-general Digest, Vol 137, Issue 8

[Ikrima Amaireh]

Hi Robert,

My PC is running on Windows 7 Enterprise.
Initially, I installed Radiance for Window using its installer but I found that most of the tutorials are provided for pc with Linux and/or Linux-like operating systems; So I had to install try learnix (that did not work) and Ubuntu (also did not work)!
Finally, I tried to use Cygwin to run Radiance on Window OS. I could install Cygwin (works fine), Xming (not sure if working) and Radiance (not all its programs are working!).

I'm a bit confused as I'm not sure if running Radiance on windows using Cygwin will be enough for carrying my work. For example, can I work out phases methods and generate BSDF data?

I wish if you can help me to do that.

Many thanks
ikrima

Hi Ikrima,

We'll need a bit more info, here. What OS are you on? How are you attempting to install it (using an installer, compiling from source, or what)? What happens when you try??
