Hi,

The scene code is on the povcomp site for all to use:

http://www.povcomp.com/entries/199.php

Just paste the radiosity settings from the first post into the file. The strange
thing is the only settings I changed from the previous render (which worked fine
at lower resolutions) were

error_bound from 0.1 to 0.08
recursion_limit from 2 to 5
count from 200 to 500
brightness from 0.9 to 0.8

Of these I guess error_bound is the most likely to cause the problem but I am
still not sure if it coulde be related to the resolution.. I should have an
idea by Monday morning.

Anyway, anyone who wants to try rendering this is OK with me (I hope you have a
spare PC and plenty of time though... but then if you are used to POV patience
is something of a necessity ;-)
