i was just playing around with radiocity on a nice lil image and it's
supposed ot have nice smooth gold and such but i end up with weird hot
spots and the gold looks like it's a poorly compressed jpg!!! this is
cool but not what i want :) you can see the nifty image which has a
neeto animation option i'll show every one later after i get it fixed
can you help me with fixing this? excuse my messy hose head code it
looks worse the lower the trace level
