It really hurts now. Hard to code standing up ;-)

My point exactly. With the current Megapov implementation of radiosity, it's
become very easy to use. Now the effect obtained in these tests, while
highly satisfying, are far from the "real" thing. There's a LOT of room for
improvement. Of course, it's still hard to tell if the shortcomings of the
pics come from the scene code (a quick hack, with mostly standard settings)
or from the radiosity algorithm   itself. For instance, I've been totally
unable to reproduce the simple (?) effect seen here :
