(...) I know it doesn't look realistic. But we are just starting! (...) Cool, I didn't know any of that. Maybe I should read that book. (...) Yes, I wanted to imitate that look. Not sure how I'll do it yet, but I'll figure it out. By "we", do you (...) (20 years ago, 13-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.animation)

(...) Ok, so I'll explain why I'm going with POV-Ray. First, did you see this: (URL) install Quicktime to see the MPEG4 (MPEG4 is a standard, I don't know why Windows Media Player wont display it). Anyway, I had to install Divx to see that AVI. :) (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.animation)

Hi! You may want to check out this thread: (URL) see that Mike tried a similar thing a while ago. I'm sure he was not aware of your efforts. Personally, I have my reservations.
