CPnichols - what ies viewer are you using?

[joconnell]

Hi Christopher - I've just got the gnomon interiors dvd and was wondering which ies viewer you use? The one with the little radiosity preview looks really useful - none of the other I could find had this as a feature so I wondered if you had a url to get it at. Nice technique about using the baked maps with a shellac material too

Awesome! My library of IES files is navigatable now rather than a sea of entries like "15mr16w_10deg?$?#$", etc, etc.

Thanks.

Yeah... that program is pretty cool. There are many free IES viewers, some better then others. My friend found one that shows you the data in 3d. I should ask him which one it is.

Found one more at russian forum. Change name IESviewer255.bmp to .rar extension. The cool thing is a light distribution thumbnail for browsing.
