[Radiance-general] x11meta issue

[Rob Guglielmetti]

Chris’ directory/path advice will fix errors one and three in your output
below, but error two is unfortunately a result of the NREL binary packages
not working correctly for x11meta. Sorry about that, I haven’t had a chance
to sort that one out yet. Used to be, no one ever used x11meta but it
appears lots of people are starting to pick up Axel’s tutorial which
includes the use of that tool, so I guess I’d better get this sorted!

Make sure you are in the right directory, or pointing to the right
directory. -Chris

Hi I am having issues with the x11meta command.
If I run

objline objects/things.rad | x11meta (from Alex's tutorial),  I keep
receiving the error:

xform: cannot find file "things.rad"
fatal - cannot open file "/usr/local/lib/meta/vchars.mta", mode "r"
xform: cannot find file "things.orig"


- I am on Mac OSX Yosemite.
- Last 5.0 binaries installed in default directory
- PATH, RAYPATH set correctly
- x11 installed from xQuarz.org

I have checked other threads and it seems other people had the same issue,
but no solution was provided.

Any suggestion?

Thanks
Ruggiero
