Hi Mael,
Do you *know* that the next release of MegaPov will have HDR support? It
would be very very nice!!

Is it really necessary to have fixed buffer sizes?
Having fixed buffer sizes (and specially if without range checks) is
the most common cause of program crashes and security holes (even though
the latter is not an extremely important issue in the case of POV-Ray).
Nowadays there shouldn't be any reason to use fixed buffer sizes.

no.. (ok, so recompile mlpov with a dynamic buffer :)
the Read_HDR_Image in mlpov is mostly cut&paste from vrpic (a gtk+ hdr
viewer) source

Then it was probably because of the buffer limitation (is it only for image
width?). I mistyped and made an image 1600X2400 and it worked, while the
opposite didn't.

I am sorry to hear that you will not release a new version. MlPov was a
sensation in the Terragen community. Recompiling is beyond me, I am afraid,
so: Anyone knows whether MegaPov will actually support HDR images?

http://195.221.122.126/tmp/mlpov83-win-bin.zip
changes in this version
-hdr_patch: no more image width limit
-hdr_patch: uses 3x less memory (keep original r,g,b,e and compute float
value when the image is used instead of computing floats at parse time)
-hdr_patch: uses the EXPOSURE parameter in the hdr header (not really
tested..)
-finish_maps: attempt to fix problems concerning transformations
I don't know if next megapov will include HDR but if so I hope it'll have a
better read function than mlpov's one (parse of informations in the header,
more robust when errors..), and support for output of HDR image..

Mael,
Thank you for continuing your efforts on MLpov. It is a
real gift to the POV-Ray community.

Oh - and is he willing share his knowledge? ;-)
