It does, but you can still slip in default overrides in some of your setup files (which it does not look like you've done here). Your sky looks good, with the ground first and then the sky. Not sure what's going on.

Hello Rob,

I thought RFLUXMTX managed all those options for us!  It looks like this... I am not sure how many rays are getting into it through the STDIN, though

The STDOUT looks like this:

#?RADIANCE
oconv -f ./Materials/materials.mat ./scene.rad ./Windows/windows.rad ./Skies/white_sky.rad
rcontrib -fo+ -ab 3 -ad 512 -lw 1e-3 -fda -c 10000 -bn 1 -b if(-Dx*0-Dy*0-Dz*1,0,-1) -m ground_glow -f reinhartb.cal -p MF=1,rNx=0,rNy=0,rNz=-1,Ux=0,Uy=1,Uz=0,RHS=+1 -bn Nrbins -b rbin -m sky_glow -y 145

What's the STDOUT look like from that rfluxmtx command? I hit this issue once, when I had a '-c (n)'  somewhere in my command pipeline and it wasn't consistent.

Hello everyone,

I have a question that I could not solve using Google, so I brought it to you guys. I have been playing a bit with RFLUXMTX with the purpose of implementing multi-phase methods for Tubular Daylight Devices,  but I am getting the error shown in the title of this e-mail.

"RCONTRIB: Warning - partial accumulation in final record"

I am using the command:

rfluxmtx -ab 3 -ad 512 -lw 1e-3 ./TDDs/4-TDD.top ./Skies/white_sky.rad ./Materials/materials.mat ./scene.rad ./Windows/windows.rad > ./DC/4-TDD-sky.mtx

The content of the files is specified below my signature.

Any idea what might be happening? I have seen that this happens "sometimes" (even for the same command)... is it a memory issue? user error? should this be in the developers list?

I AM USING NREL's x64 WINDOWS BINARIES

Thanks in advance to all!

Germán

where  4-TDD.top file is
