First of all, thanks for the new version! You've really worked hard to make
this a wonderful utility!

For anyone who plans on making raytraced instructions, may I suggest the
following:
1) Uncomment the "orthographic" keyword in the camera {} block.
This will get rid of the perspective in the images (equivalent
of infinite focus)
2) Use 3 shadowless light sources, one directly to the side of the
model, one directly in front, and one directly above. Adjust the
brightnesses of the lights by changing the color:
color rgb 0.5 // half-bright white light
color rgb 2.0 // double-bright white light
Adjust the brightness of the lights until you get good edge contrast.
3) Remove reflections from all the colors.
4) If desired, use MegaPOV to add edgelines
Anyone have any other suggestions?

It resulted in my L3 (Lego+Ldraw+Lars) project, which has spun off L3P and L3Lab. The (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray) !!
