I seem to have a problem with Mlcad and importing models and rendering them.
Let me give you an example...

Model #1 would be a road, tree, and roadsign.

Model #2 would either be a minifig or a car.

NewModel:  The saved file of Model 1 & 2.

Now in Mlcad, I load up Model 1 and then import Model 2 and save to NewModel.
However, when I go to render my "new model" in POV-Ray all I get is Model #1
(the road).  What I imported doesn't get rendered.

If I go back to Mlcad and load up NewModel, it shows both Model 1 & 2 together.
So I can't figure out what's wrong.  Can anyone help?

Hi Chris,

  I'll assume you are using MPD format, because you talk of importing.  Is this
correct?

  What tool did you use to go from LDraw file to POV-Ray?  Are you sure that
tool supports MPD?

  After you import model 1 and model 2, you might want to create a new top level
model that uses both model 1 and model 2 to compose a scene.

  If you are using LPub, the above paragraph should solve your problem.

(...) You are right, I am using MPD. The tool I am using is L3PAO. I thought this would work, but maybe it doesn't? I've never tried LPub. (19 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.cad)
