 | | mesh object transition for animation in Pov-Ray question —Chris Daniel
| | | | I'm trying to animate the geartrain for my lego clock. This code is out of the pov-ray help file #include "colors.inc" camera { location <0, 3, -6> look_at <0, 0, 0> } light_source { <20, 20, -20> color White } plane { y, 0 pigment { checker color (...)

| | | | | | I had the same problem with wheels, you need to rotate the piece where it is declared, ie: #declare _3649_dot_dat = #if (QUAL = 0) box { <-52.99,-52.99,-10>, <52.99,52.99,10> } #else union { object { axlehol5_dot_dat matrix (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | | | (...) This has the side-effect that all uses of 3649 will rotate the same. It's better to do like Bram suggested: object { _3649_dot_dat rotate <0, 0, clock*30> matrix <0,1,0,-1,0,0,0,0,1,0,-59,-20> #if (version >= 3.1) material #else texture #end { (...)

| | | | | (...) Try this instead: // MLCAD BTG hourhand4rpd object { _3649_dot_dat rotate <0, 0, clock*30> matrix <0,1,0,-1,0,0,0,0,1,0,-59,-20> #if (version >= 3.1) material #else texture #end { Color25 } } BTW, this is equivalent to putting (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad)
