Hello Eric.

Wow!!! Talk about teaching a man to fish!!
Well I followed all the instructions and presto... In my enjoyment, I put paid to another rendering bug bear, the 6 x 6 Inverted Dish.

It’s now a gloriously smooth

The process of getting .mpd’s into POV via LDView is great. The ability to include custom includes/alternative part POV code in the Export is completely brilliant, so thanks for taking the time to describe the process. I would never have worked that out. A Big hats off to Travis as well - LDView now has a desktop shortcut.


   I hope this all works for you. Let me know if you have more trouble. Feel free to take a look at my assortment of renders here and ask any other questions you might have about how I accomplished various things. I’m still learning myself and collaboration always makes things easier.

For reference, these are the other of Anton’s part I have incorporated so far. I can send you the .inc files for any you are interested in.
  • 44126, Slope, Curved 6 x 2
  • 42022, Slope Brick Round 1 x 6
  • 3842, Minifig Helmet
  • 33008, Scala Flower Pot
  • 30367, R2D2 Head (same as 553)
  • 2536, Palm Segment
  • 2489, Barrel


These would be sweet. I’ll send you the 6x6 Dish and a few others which I’ll no doubt create over the next few days. I’ll just have to have a closer look at Anton’s part library - I’m sure a few of the curved windscreens could do with inclusion as I remember some of my LGEO part substituted renders still had clunky faceted windscreens and slopes.

Thanks for all your help Eric. I can now get back to the original task of finalizing my POV code for render. Funny how diversions seem to come from no where.

Cheers

(...) In response to my conversation with Tom Beattie concerning using Anton Raves' parts with L3P or LDView, I decided it would be a good idea to create a repository to hold the include files.

(...) This all sounds very familiar. I only started rendering myself late last year, and I also struggled through all of these questions. Hopefully I will be able to answer most of them so you can get through it more quickly! (...) OK, as you have (...) (15 years ago, 19-Jun-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
