  Re: Raytracing a primarily black model
 
(...) Right...I was just wondering if anyone had particular settings they used in POV-Ray that worked well. Otherwise it's just that much trial and error on my part, which is really slow when you're using radiosity. --Bram (20 years ago, 7-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Raytracing a primarily black model
 
(...) Hi Bram, I'm not much of a ray tracing expert, but this is an issue that even LEGO has addressed. When I look at building instructions by LEGO, they translate black parts to a dark gray, almost the same color as the original dark gray. Many (...) (20 years ago, 7-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Raytracing a primarily black model

  Re: Trouble creating building instructions using lpub and mpd file
 
(...) You are right, but the error handling problem is larget than just blanks in file names. All of this boils down to the wimpy method that LPub uses to parse LDraw files.
