Hi all,

When rendering in MegaPov for the Mac I almost always get this error

bounds error, unreasonable size 14x

For every pixel it renders.

Not only puzzles ie me, but is also slows down rendering. But it get
weirder: when I pauze the render and then continue the stream of error
messages stops!

Confused? Well I know I am!

Without providing or at least telling something about the scene no one
will likely be able to provide any help.

Dear

This is a debug information only in using Radiosity.

octree.c

#ifdef RADSTATS
      if (subtree->Id.Size < 100 || subtree->Id.Size > 140 )
      {
        Debug_Info("bounds error, unreasonable size %d\n", subtree->Id.Size);
     }
      ot_seeblockcount++;
#endif

In my case I make cut this debug information from source and compiling.
It is no useful and take more time in radiosity.

This is indeed related to radiosity like Mr. Tanabe said.

A long time ago I asked someone from the Pov-Ray Team (don't know who
anymore) for an explanation in how to avoid this.
At that time he could not explain it and somehow I got sidetracked and
never looked at it again.
If I recall well, there is no explanation in the docs either about this.


I don't think it is specific for the Mac version but most, if not all,
reports are from Mac users.

Perhaps someone can explain it now? ;-)
