Here's the initial version of a compatibility wrapper, allowing you to easily use parts from Anton Raves' POV-Ray library in L3P-generated model files. Save the following text to a file, add a #include statement to your L3P model file, and then (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I've been using System scale for the three Scala parts I've done. I chose System scale because the Scala parts do show up in many System sets (but I've never seen a Duplo piece in a System set, or vice-versa). I honestly didn't know about (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) For one, I'm not keen on putting POV-Ray code in LDraw part files. Besides complicating the review/certification process, it also ties the LDraw library to one specific renderer, in an official way. Steve (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Scala is kind of odd -- Scala 'flower studs' are double-sized, but parts like the 'brick 1 x 1 x 2/3 round with tabs' have System studs. And Scala flower-studs interlock with System-style anti-studs (the tubes on the underside of parts). Scala (...) (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad)

I am trying to render a model (created with MLCad) in POV-Ray using the light-green color, but it always comes out a horrid yellow. Anyone have any tips on how to fix this? Thanks, Bryan (21 years ago, 24-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
