(...) This is the difference between a Renderer (like 3DS MAX) and a Raytracer (like POV Ray). POVRay uses real Solid Geometry, where every object is held in memory as a mathematically "pure" object, so a sphere is defined as a true sphere (via the (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)

Yes, you have to understand that pov-ray rendered images look so good (and take so much time to be produced) because the physics of light is modeled (hence the reflection refraction and so on and so forth) moreover when you see a textured object (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad)
