There are also c-versions which (...) (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Actually, a much better solution would be to scrap POV altogether and go with Blender or something of the kind (URL) reasoning behind it is that POV is the worst possible way of learning 3D rendering. Placing the lights illustrates why very (...) (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)

(...) That's how the current light.dat works. You set the colour of the light by the part colour, and that means you can set the brightness of the light by the brightness of the colour. I have tried this and it works pretty well. Cheers Allister (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I don't think they used LDraw -- unless LGEO has textures mapped on sloped parts. Also, the tiles are grooved, LDraw's tiles weren't grooved in 1999. Steve (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Well I think it's a good idea, and can't see any reason it wouldn't work - you could even use the part colour to set the light colour. The only limitation I can see is how to set the brightness of the light, but perhaps that doesnt matter too (...) (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)

I must say that now I have the book in hand, the images are deffinately rendered. You can, like you said, cleary make that out from the shadows. I doubt though the used LDraw, for the book I have (Animals) dates back to 1999. One other possibility (...) (22 years ago, 12-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
