  Re: Wallpapers
 
Tim, I use the LGEO library, and use L3P with the L3Pao to generate the POV files. I haven't had many problems at all. Certain pieces don't seem to work, hence the lack of the 24-tooth crown gear in my pictures. <snip> (...) <snip> (...) I also (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) the gears are not rounded, which is probably because you haven't used the LGEO library? Using LGEO gives better results, in my opinion.

Hi Tim, This is a great scene. Thanks for taking the time to render it. I really enjoy rendered pictures of LEGO (be they of bricks or scenes) for my desktop, but I haven't been seeing many new ones recently. Because of that, I've been playing (...)

  Wallpapers
 
I just threw together this design for a LEGO wallpaper last night. I know its not the greatest thing in the world, but it was a quick one - inspired by the memory of the (apparently) long lost BrickDreams renderings. All I really did was put light (...)

  Converting and background in POV-Ray

  Re: POV-Ray user-friendly use
 
I forgot to mention, when you use 3DWin, convert the .dat file to a .dxf then convert that to pov/moray. it works a lot better than converting them directly.

I use 3DWin (URL) to convert to Moray (URL) have to re-color the parts, but if you use l3p to make pov files of the model you can copy the colors created to the material editor in moray. I spent a lot of time useing this before I learned to move the (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad)

Heya all, I just created USS-Constellation in MLCad and I want it render in POV-Ray.

  Re: New space animation
 
Ed or Eduardo? Thanks! I don't think there is any standard for that animation. I just wanted to create something with a higher aspect ratio then the standard 4x3 or 1.33 for a bit of widescreen look. So I choose a nice 1.66 ratio using 800x480. A (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)
