I looked in the ftp tree and realized that there were two rayshade directories: pub/graphics/rayshade and /pub/graphics/graphics/rayshade I copied my patches into the graphics/graphics directory :( I moved graphics/rayshade to graphics/rayshade.xx and made a symlink from graphics/graphics/rayshade, so the next time you will be in the right directory. Sorry. Anyway some points about 4.1.0: 1) You should apply UNAPPLIED/shadowbug. Don't distribute a buggy version. (The first hunk will reject - it is already applied in 4.1.0) 2) Please apply accellenh: On some platforms (e.g. mot88) it is much faster to do float multiplication than division. Thus if you have to divide a vektor by a scalar it is better to invert the scalar and do multiplications. 3) lightenh allows lightsources that falloff with the distance to the object squared. If you are interested, ftp it.
