Thanks, but the definitions in rad_def.inc include all this
(and they are very good, as I really like the rest of the room...):

    #case (Radiosity_Normal)
      pretrace_start 0.08
      pretrace_end   0.01
      count 200
      nearest_count 7
      error_bound 0.3
      recursion_limit 1
      low_error_factor 0.75
      gray_threshold 0
      minimum_reuse 0.017
      brightness 1.0
      adc_bailout 0.01/2
    #debug "\nRadiosity_Normal in use\n"
    #break
