hi,

i unse radiance under OS system and i am now following Radiance Tutorial on the office website edited by Axel Jacobs.
i used compiled binaries to install Radiance on my mac.
what i am doing now is to run the command on p14.

i copy the command in terminal here:

lus-MacBook-Air:objects zhujiajie$ nano things.rad
lus-MacBook-Air:objects zhujiajie$ objline things.rad | x11meta
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11/lib/libX11.6.dylib
  Referenced from: /Applications/Radiance/rad4R2macosx_bin/x11meta
  Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap: 5
lus-MacBook-Air:objects zhujiajie$

in things.rad:
void sphere ball1
0
0
4 6 5 7 2

there is no image.

You need to install X11 on your system. It isn't included by default on newer version so MacOS, sadly. See:

hi,

thanks for you reply.
i now have already install X11, but when i try to get image there has another problem.

dyn1216-161:objects zhujiajie$ objline chair.rad|x11meta
fatal - cannot open file "/usr/local/lib/ray/meta/vchars.mta", mode “r"

what is the problem here.
many thanks.

Are you using the NREL binaries? It looks like I may be building x11meta incorrectly, with some bad (hard path) link to "vchars.mta". I get this same error on my system; lemme look into this.
