13:15.29 Z80-Boy Why does a model of head render very quickly and the same just cut in half by a rpp renders extremely slowly?
13:17.19 Z80-Boy what makes it faster, cutting things apart using the + operation or - operation?
13:17.49 Z80-Boy - yields bigger bounding boxes doesn't?

19:22.01 Z80-Boy I was able to render one Ronja video clip flawless now thanks to the change to my script
19:22.08 Z80-Boy Now when I know where the flickering comes from
19:22.17 yukonbob ?where does it come from
19:22.52 Z80-Boy from a bug in the restart code that happens only when gamma is specified.
19:23.23 yukonbob ah -- that change was made in the brlcad code yesterday, no?
19:23.35 Z80-Boy I don't know
19:23.44 Z80-Boy I know they are going to fix it about now
19:24.28 yukonbob so in your script you just skip the gamma?
19:25.07 Z80-Boy no I make sure partial render is not attempted to be continued
19:25.28 yukonbob heh -- fix the partial render by not rendering partials ;)
19:25.39 Z80-Boy it is a workaround
19:25.53 yukonbob indeed.
19:25.57 Z80-Boy Well also a fix because the partial feature sucks a bit too
19:26.13 Z80-Boy And it speeds things up a bit by not scanning through the already done work
19:26.18 Z80-Boy it goes right down to the job :)
19:27.02 Z80-Boy well if you render pix file and break it in the middle
19:27.12 Z80-Boy when you try to render it again it continues where it stopped before
19:27.40 yukonbob oh -- it automagically senses this and tries to save some work... this is built into rt?
19:29.10 yukonbob my build is continuing -- didn't expect things to build so well...
19:29.47 yukonbob heh -- spoke to soon
19:45.21 Z80-Boy Is there a description how "transparency", "mirror reflectance", "specular reflectivity" and "diffuse reflectivity" are exactly defined?
