Looks good in LDraw editor but some parts not that great in POV. Parts are
hollow. Still supported and developed by many.

Anton's Parts: real POV-Ray parts using POV-primitives and CSG, no
conversion, round is round not squarish round. Code not so complex. No LDraw
to POV conversion (yet!). Parts not hollow. Support and development still in

For those reading in, non-hollow parts make for far better and more
realistically looking transparent pieces!
