Eduardo: (...) I wouldn't mind doing it, if somebody could figure out how to convert the LDraw sources into some POV-Ray code that doesn't need 1 Gb memory for rendering. Or were you just thinking of a sequence of plain parallel projection CAD (...) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)

Don: (...) Good to know. (...) I think they are called "look_at" and "location" in POV-Ray. (...) It would be fine if you could make something equivalent to: camera { sky <0, 0, 1> up <0, 1, 0> location <0, 0, 528> look_at <0, 0, 0> } in POV-Ray. I (...)

  RE: Perspective in LDGLite (Was: About the great datsville)
 
(...) POV-Ray uses "up" and "right" to determine the aspect ratio of the viewing window (which results in non-square pixels if the the camera ratio and the render ratio don't match. I believe the use of either "angle" or "direction" is important in (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
