Yes!
At last I've seen the first POV-based LDraw animation system that really works
for me! I just downloaded it, (Well, I had to download MLCad and install it too
in order to generate a minfig. That was the only complicated part!). Then I ran
the program and opened POV-Ray - and it really *worked* from the first attempt!
I am very impressed and must say it looks extremely promising.
Keep up the good work. I may give up my LDA project and join LMM if it can be
made that modular so one can make animations other than just minifigs and store
scripts (almost) as easy as adding new parts or primitives in LDraw.
