: Try rendering 'radiosity/radiosity.pov' as it is and with an empty

: standard settings lead to no radiosity effect (but the pretrace is

Confirmed. It's the recursion_limit. Comment it and radiosity works.

: Photons generate a strange 'spotlight effect' (brightening around the
: target objects), try 'lights/phot_met_glass.pov' for an example.

Confirmed.
