  Re: POV-RAY question
 
(...) Try playing with the "ambience" value on the piece you want to light up. Arg, I forget the actual syntax, and all my POV files are on my other machine, so I'll just have to tell ya to check the docs. Basically, the ambience value tells POV-Ray (...)

  Re: POV-RAY question
 
Actually, I can't really get that to work from inside a transparent plat/tile. It will sortof light up, but not nearly bright enough, and I can't find any way to adjust the brightness. I guess that's the biggest problem that I have. Then, with the (...) (25 years ago, 24-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: POV-RAY question
 
A easy way to do this is in Ledit, insert the file "light.dat" inside the element you want lit up. By running L3P with the -l option it turns the light.dat files into light sources. (I'm not sure if this works with L2P, you will have to check if (...) (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  POV-RAY question
 
I've been messing around with pov-ray today and I've been trying to figure out how I can get headlights/taillights/emergency lights for a fire truck. I've seen headlights done before, but I can't seem to get it to work. I can make a spotlight, but (...) (25 years ago, 23-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: POV-RAY orange color
 
(...) one, (...) Do you mean silver or gray? When you L3P just one brick, POV-Ray ignores the coloring for some reason, and just uses the default color of the model (gray: 7). With more bricks, POV-Ray uses the correct colors. --Bram (25 years ago, 21-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: POV-RAY orange color
 
Strange. I rendered a brick colored 462 in POV and it came out silver. When I sandwiched the brick between a white (15) and a black (0) one, it came out orange. Maybe 462 does not always work... Scott R Dennett wrote in message (...) (25 years ago, 20-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
