I'm aware the diferences in results for this case are negligible however i am trying to validate the programs for my thesis so i do need to know where the diferences come from. However my problem is that both the -ab setting from step 8 and 9 have an (simultanious) effect on the calculationresults of the grid. rif file render= settings supersede the basic settings. bat file, the settings from step 9/9 are the same as the settings in the. So the settings in step 8/9 are the same as the settings for rtace in the. I have detail, variability and quality on medium: The blank spaces indicate there are no changes compared to the calculation above. I did a test with the settings where i only adjusted the -ab settings in step 8/9 and the indirect reflections in step 9/9 and then i checked the daylightfactor results in a grid and put it in a excelsheet. I don't think you completely understand me however were getting there, if i understand what you mean then my problem is that that is not actualy happening in the calculation. To ilustrate what i mean i added a document with the contents of the batch-file and the dos-window with in yellow the rtrace calculation/parameters and in green the radiance calculation for the generation of, among other things, the oct.file. While i would asume that in the grid calculation the internal reflection (-ab) of only the rtrace settings should have effect. I do notice the rif file settings being used as parameters in the first calculation which is shown in the dos window during calculations.Īnd the parameters in the batchfile for rtrace are being used as they do have effect but are not shown in the doswindow that apears during calculations.Ĭhanges in both/either of the settings -ab value have effect on the rtrace calculation for the grid points. The changes in those are put in the batchfile as settings for rtrace.īoth parameters, the rif file parameters and the rtrace parameters, are changed indipendently from each other. When calculating a grid there is an advanced parameters page in the wizard before the last page of the export wizard. The general settings at the end of the export wizard go into the rif file. rif file to have the same -ab value as your original batch file, the results come out different? rif file, so there should not be any differences in results. The parameters of the batch file are derived from the original. rif settings are what will be used, as they are overwriting the original batch parameters. So the settings in the batch file are the original settings from the first run, and the.
You can see the new values in the DOS window if you keep reading the settings. rif file will overwrite these original values.

You will see that the DOS windows will first list the original settings - as per the first run based on the batch file - but then your modified. Now, you can edit the settings of the RIF file with the RCP, save back as the same. The rtrace settings in the batch file are originally created based on the settings set within the Ecotect wizard this batch file is created from the settings of the RIF file. Please get back to me, it would be appreciated. I'm running Ecotect Analysis 2011 with Desktop Radiance v.2.00 Beta or MinGW Radiance (tried both versions). I know I can use Radiance Control Panel and make a calculation from there but, as far as I know, you can only render a image from RCP and not import any grid/point values back to Ecotect, or have I missed something? Is there any way to export to Radiance without writing over the RIF file? The problem tho is that when I now try to make a new export thro the wizard, it just overwrites my modified RIF file with the standard file and the radiance command prompt just shows the standard parameters. ) the workaround would be to go through the Radiance Control Panel and save the "render="-parameters to the RIF file manually, which I've done. Radiance/Ecotect ignores the custom parameters you've specified in the "Radiance analysis" wizard.Īccording to this post (.
I'm having trouble adding my own custom parameters whilst exporting daylight factor calculations to Radiance.
