It seemed to be going along well, so I left it overnight. However this morning
it appeared to have stopped. The clock on POV-RAY was still running, but the
PPS rate was 0. :(

I found that file. Do I need to edit it?
I've found the spot in that file where the red pigment is declared as an RBG
value. I also see that in Todd's file, he has a similar value as well as what
appear to be other, more specific values related to the color. Is there some
way to replace the values in the radiocol.inc file with Todd's?

I know that Todd's red file is called lg_color_r00.inc. Which is the color I
want to try replacing first. If I can get it to work, I'll worry about the rest
later.

Here's where I'm getting confused. Do you mean copy the file name into the .pov
file? Would that then become an include statement at the beginning of the file?

Again, I'm not sure what is meant here. Do you mean to rename the file? Or
rename the file reference within the .pov file? Or am I completely off track?
:)
Thanks again, I really appreciate the help!
Best regards,
