Hi florian!

I came to the samer conclusion concerning the UrbanMsc.
I tried to just run G4 4.9 yesterday, but somehow the libraries seemed to have changed. I got some dynamic link problems.

Then I looked a little bit closer to the UrbanMsc and I found out that the error occurs when

a) the steplength is smaller than stepmin (in ComputeGeomPathLength)

and

b) the steplength is larger than 0.05*currrentRange (in SampleCosineTheta)

This surely appears to be an exotic case, but it leads to an inconsistency in the calculation of tau which culminates in a division by zero.

I have to admit that I can only guess what all the variables mean. So at the moment I have to think about what would be a reasonable fix.

Cheers! Sebastian.
