Netvista w/ PIII
Windows 2000 Professional??
beta.4

In the following image, I see banding that seems strange to me.
Apologies if this has already been reported.

Source file attached (a blend of scene files and someone's Gball macro,
the author of which I've forgotten.)

There was some radiosity problem reported with recursion_limit > 2 but
this does not apply here.  

I'm not sure what kind of banding you mean, could you be more specific?

Aren't those black bands in the lower right not supposed to be there?

I only see those bright stripes, they indeed look strange, but they also
occur in Povray 3.1 and without radiosity.

In the lower rightmost sphere, doesn't it go from left to right:

unnatural black
expected color
unnatural black
expected color

The dark parts seem natural to me (it's also not completely black)

Maybe try 'N = 12000' without radiosity to clearly see the bright stripes.
