By the way, anyone already decided what is the color number of the type
of green the competition/CyberMaster sets use? Definitely is not
standard green.

I don't know if a semi-official decision has been made, but I'd use
color #3.  It's not an exact match, but it's reasonably close.

I've run a color table and compared the color outputs from LDraw with
POV-Ray and I reached the conclusion that they don't match very well.

Yes, well, the colors in LDraw aren't very good.  Most of them are just
the default 16-color palette from the video card.

In LDLite, you can redefine the color-values, so you could use whatever
color-code you like.  I'm hoping that sometime, the standard value for
color #3 will be updated to LEGO-Teal.
