I had no idea that L3Lab had POV output, in spite the fact that I've been using
it daily for years!
Hmm, very intersting. The alternative approach that comes to my mind is:
* LDA creates a static MPD file and runs it through L3P.
* The output file is postprocessed (camera etc stripped off) and renamed to
*.inc
* LDA also creates a smaller POV file with all frames in a switch statement!
Yeah! That could really work...
