falsecolor error

Dear list,

I got the following error when using falsecolor:

*command*:
falsecolor -i ./gendaylit.hdr -s 100000 -n 10 -l Wh/m^2 >
./gendaylit_fc.hdr

*error*:
Parameters read
Creating temporary calculation files..
Creating temporary picture files......
Rescaling input picture...
pcomb -f tmp__\pc0.cal -e v=(y+.5)/yres;vleft=v;vright=v -e
vbelow=(y-.5)/yres;vabove=(y+1.5)/yres -x 100 -y 200 >tmp__\scol.pic
Creating color contours...
Creating picture legend...
Combining all parts to the false colored image...
'ra=0;ga=0;ba=0': No such file or directory
*<stdin>: bad picture size*
Removing temporary files from ...\tmp__
Removing directory ...\tmp__

The hdr image to be processed seems fine and can be open in Photomatix
which is shared over here:

Did I miss anything about the falsecolor program here?

Thanks!

I have just started using this but try using -ip instead of -i and lose the
other parameters. See if it works and keep adding them back one by one see
where the problem is.

Hey Joe,

just tried this out under Windows and LINUX. Works as it should.
What OS and version of Radiance are you using?
Also, try putting inverted commas around the label string. Maybe your
shell doesn't like the '^' character?
If that still doesn't work, could you try without legend (-lw 0).

Cheers

Axel

Has this been resolved, then? What was the issue?

Dear Axel and Vlad, thank you very much for your suggestions!

Vlad's advice works: change the "-i" option to "-ip", and I got the
following:

Maybe the falsecolor I'm using is actually "falsecolor2" which use the "-i"
option when specifying an hdr image file ....

Apologize for my late reply!

Joe

Thanks, Joe. The fc image you put up on Dropbox was created with the
old palette, which is available in the latest falsecolor.pl with the
'-pal spec' option. You're using either an older official version, or
falsecolor2 (not sure what the default palette is there).

Anyhow, I'm glad it's all working for you
