| | | | Hi Tim, This is a great scene. Thanks for taking the time to render it. I really enjoy rendered pictures of LEGO (be they of bricks or scenes) for my desktop, but I haven't been seeing many new ones recently. Because of that, I've been playing (...)

| | | | | Tim, I use the LGEO library, and use L3P with the L3Pao to generate the POV files. I haven't had many problems at all. Certain pieces don't seem to work, hence the lack of the 24-tooth crown gear in my pictures. <snip> (...) <snip> (...) I also (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)

| | | | | (...) L2P is Lutz Uhlman's program for converting an LDraw .DAT file to POV-Ray format, using the LGEO library exclusively. You don't need to use L2P if you don't want to. You can also use Lars C Hassing's L3P to convert a .DAT file into POV-Ray (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)
