  • Be sure the checkbox Enable Standard Lights in the tab Panorama / section Lights is selected
  • Choose desired standard lights: Office, Disco, Jewelry shop, ASET etc.

26. Different default files paths for different dialogs set by the user

Now when you save or open the a file, the path of it is remembered for every dialog, so next time, when you need to save or load the file - you'll be in the same folder you worked before for every dialog.

27. Saving scale, stone environments, rendering and movie settings in DMC file

Table of Content

DiamCalc allows to save most of scene and rendering settings in DMC file:

  • Scale
  • Lighting configuration
  • HDR settings
  • Movie settings
So, when you open the file again the stone will be the same as when it was closed

28. Custom Color Spaces for HDR Images is available

Table of Content

Now HDR mode supports different colour spaces:

  • DC Old
  • NTSC
  • CIE
  • Adobe
  • BestRGB
  • BetaRGB
  • ProPhoto

To change color space:

  • Select from menu Options / Lighting / Customize.../ Monitor correction / Gamma correction
  • Select color space in the list RGB Primaries

There are different ways to project a Human perception of a colour space to a Monitor color space. An analogy is various projections of the terrestrial globe to 2d map where for example the islands of Canada appear much larger than they actually are.

29. New tone-mapping

Table of Content

New enhanced algorithm of representation of very bright sparks in diamond picture is introduced. It makes simulated pictures more close to photographs.

30. Memory requirements for HDR panoramas are reduced
