(...) I don't know POV, but I do know that index of refraction (IoR) shouldn't have any effect on reflections. Perhaps it does, but it shouldn't. You need do decrease the reflectivity, not the IoR. The IoR controls how much light bends when it (...) (21 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) L3P generates exactly the same color definition for 47, 0x06FFFFFF and 0x03FFFFFF, so normally it shouldn't matter which color you use. However, you include "ldraw_radiosity.inc" which again includes "LDRAW_RAD_COLORl.inc", and in this file (...) (21 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
