I'm posting an LDraw modeling/animation/POV-Ray tutorial.  In the
tutorial, I
show how to take an LDraw file, make it animatable, convert it to
POV-Ray using
Anton Raves' parts library and create an animation from it.

I'll try to go over as much syntax and concepts as I think a
newbie would need
in order to understand everything. The things I wont discuss in
depth include
how to start a POV-Ray render or how to take an image sequence
(the output of a
POV-Ray render) and make a movie file out of them.

Please let me know if you find problems.

Hi James,

I started reading it, and it seems pretty good, but I find that colour
combination (grey on black) almost impossible to read. Would you
consider using
a higher contrast combination?

I just changed it to white on black.  Is that better?  I'm not
entirely happy with my site's design, and I never really did take
into account Windows gamma differences, so I should probably make
more changes.

James

(...) Well it's definitely an improvement, but I still find the bluish grey text in your links difficult to read. I think, as (URL) pointed out>, that the main problem might lie in the black background. ROSCO (18 years ago, 22-Feb-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
