#2 TIFF file not compatible

[Johan]

The written file (TIF or TIFF) cannot be read by any
program I tried. And using a screendump won't work for
pictures larger than my screen.

Which program is able to read the TIFF file?

If you are using binary version, TIFF is not supported in renderer
and renderer outputs image as Radiance .hdr format whatever
filenames are(specified Display command in RIB). Try to rename
.tif to .hdr and open it with HDRShop or Cinepaint.

If you compiled renderer from source code with libtiff, tiff file may
include floating point pixel. Then try to use HDRShop or Cinepaint.

Thanks!

I have downloaded HDRShop (only 860k) and reading the output
file as a hdr-file works just fine. Thanks.

I use 'moonlight' in Linux to create a rib file. And use a
text editor to make soms changes, so the global illumination
and other settings are like your example files. Than in
Windows I do the post-processing.

Hi, thanks for the bug report. Are you sure lucille is
really writing a TIFF file? Lucille will output a file with
a .tiff extension if that is the filename you specify in
your RIB file. But it may not be a tiff file. Are you using
the CVS version of lucille? If so, you may see this problem
- it may be writing an HDR file (radiance .pic format) even
though the file is being *called* a TIFF file.

You might want to try an earlier version of lucille, or wait
a little while and the bug will get cleaned up. :)

This problem was already explained by syoyo (see below).

I use this for a preview-window on the screen:
Format 256 256 1
Display "out.hdr" "framebuffer" "rgb"
And I use this for writing a file:
Format 1840 1840 1
Display "out.hdr" "file" "rgb"
De file 'out.hdr' is located in the map where the lucille
programma is located. So I copy it and read it with HDRShop.
Note that HDRShop also runs under wine.

greetings, Johan.
