Radiosity is a particular methodology for modelling diffuse
(scattered)
illumination in a scene. It is a methodology for modelling
the phenomenon,
not something that is itself
This statement would seem to demonstrate that you are somewhat ill-informed
in this matter.
Ill-informed, yes, but not completely ignorant. I read this

somewhere in the middle of the discussion, subsequent to my first
post.

almost like a
purveyor of perpetual motion machines. (They all sound the same.)

Yeah, see, there's a plug on the back of the grav gun for power
output. it is, after all, a ZERO POINT energy gun, and we all know
that zero point energy is some dark, magical energy that comes from
nowhere and seems to be
Ah, my bad... didn't realize it was such a complex thing.

Unfortunately, you make one big assumption that is flawed because you
failed to take into account the possibility that Valve isn't worried
about modelling radiosity
accurate relatime radiosity and inaccurate real time radiosity. Funny.
Very funny.
Last time I checked radiosity term means the RADIANT EXITANCE,
representing the
ammount of flux leaving a surrface, as oposed to irradiance, which is the
flux when it
reaches a surface.

Sigh, what's the point of ranting and insulting? Shouting louder than
everyone else to attempt to make your point more valid is kinda
annoying.

gee, Bob, wasn't one of the first replys to my post made by some guy with 2
post later admited
something like I had no ideea that radisoity is such a complex problem?
Others where no
more inteligent, im sorry to say this. Why even post a reply when you do not
understand the very basic
