Well, Manfred, I followed your instructions but it didn't seem to • work.
However, by typing the path to my \ldraw\models directory and seting
Ldrawdir=C:\ldraw, I was able to run L3P and render my models in
POV-Ray.

I've (re)tested it just now, and it should work:

Possible error causes:

- L3P.BAT and L3P.EXE are in the same folder/directory. When you
issue the
command "L3P" it finds the EXE before the BAT, and LDRAWDIR isn't
set.

- Saved batchfile with wrong file name extension, for instance
L3P.BAT.EXE

- L3P.EXE has another file path than stated in the last line of the
L3P.BAT
file, and you forgot to change it.

Any of these three ? If not, mail me your file path location of
L3P.EXE, your
version of the file L3P.BAT and what the path is you've entered after
"Start In" in the properties of "Shortcut for l3p.bat".

Greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

The problem is the first one you listed: L3P.bat and L3P.exe are in the
same directory.
C:\Ldraw\L3P.bat
C:\Ldraw\L3P.exe

How should I separate them so L3P.bat will be found first?

(...) Move L3P.exe to a different directory, for instance C:\Pov, and change the path reference in the last line of L3P.bat accordingly. This way you can still use way the DOS-window openened with the shortcut for L3P for running Ldraw.exe also. (...) (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
