Any suggestiongs on how to get rid of the artifacts under the red sphere?
I'm using tweaked Radiosity_OutdoorHQ settings from rad_def.inc

these are my settings

global_settings {
 assumed_gamma 1

 #if( PHOTONS )
  photons {
   spacing .01
   count 10000000
   jitter .5
  }
 #end

 #if( RADIOSITY )
  radiosity {
   pretrace_start 0.08
        pretrace_end   0.004
        count 750
        nearest_count 7
        error_bound .1
        recursion_limit 3
        low_error_factor .5
        gray_threshold 0
        minimum_reuse .015
        brightness 1
        adc_bailout .01/2
  }
 #end
}

thanks

Reducing recursion_limit will help a lot, try recursion_limit 1 with a
higher error_bound (~0.5) or use recursion_limit 2 with count 1000 or
larger.  

BTW, without light sources, photons have no effect.

Simply raise max_trace_level and eventually those polka dots will disappear.
