[Radiance-general] Official Radiance 5.2 release

[Gregory J. Ward]

Dear Enlisted,

An announcement has been posted to the Discourse server at:

	https://discourse.radiance-online.org/t/official-radiance-5-2-release/4700

It is reproduced below for those who have not yet signed up (shame!)

Rob Guglielmetti of NREL, Dan Fuller of LBNL, and yours truly have put together a new official release of Radiance, version 5.2, available from the usual download point. The NREL installers may be found here.

Some of the major changes and bug fixes since the last official release are mentioned in my talk from last month’s workshop in Loughborough, here. The new additions to gendaylit and evalglare by Jan Wienold and Aicha Diakite are described in their talk.

Some brief highlights are listed below:

psketch program for stylized objects
new rmtxop operators
falsecolor improvements
rvu “origin” command
rtpict tool for parallel rendering
aBSDF primitive for peak extraction

Please post here or to radiance-dev if you run into any problems with the installers or the release.

Best,
-Greg
