Indigo 0.9 test 3

Post by OnoSendai » Mon Jul 23, 2007 1:10 am

http://www.indigorenderer.com/montecarl ... _test3.zip

Changelog:

* improved XML handling so comments inside bottom level elements are ignored.
* made transform matrices be arbitrary
* added halt_samples_per_pixel in inifile
* added halt_samples_per_pixel element in renderer_settings in scene XML,
* added -haltspp X command line switch
* fixed albedo_spectrum for diffuse_transmitter
* misc. performance enhancements.


The halt samples per pixel option(s) allow you to terminate the Indigo program after a certain number of samples per pixel have been computed.
This can be a more appropriate termination condition than time since program start in some cases.

I haven't really understood what halt_samples does yet, could you explain it a little bit more is it something like stopping a render or what? You've made really nice and cool stuffs in 0.9 Ono thanks :wink:.

yes, halt after a specific time of samples

halt time, is the same, but uses a timer, to halt...

halt samples is better for animations, though, as it gives more similar pics in noisiness ;)

No, it will pretty much just make life easier for exporter writers.
