Thanks for digging. Remembering now something like radiosity's save and 
load got moved to flag/ini control (v3.7 to v3.8 ?) while the photon 
load and save did not.

Aside: I got no errors (or saved radiosity file) using save_file, 
load_file in the radiosity block which, in the moment, allowed me to 
think the changes and state were the other way around.

Aside 2: There is the +hr and vain pretrace radiosity stuff too. For 
exact image compares when running radiosity I've always had to drop back 
to one thread.

I'm not a big radiosity user, but I'll play a little with the flags 
while my coffee brews and post if I figure more out.
