Hi. Just wanted to show a couple of anims. The first one is Jeremy H. Sproats' A66 (Spider Mecha) doing a little walk. ftp://ftp.lie.hn.org/a66.avi (410 KB) Converted to DXF, imported into 3ds max 4, completely set up with IK, and rendered with (...) (22 years ago, 26-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) On second thoughts, you can do this in POV-Ray, without the use of a .BAT file. What you need to do is simply to make a dummy .POV file in which you put an indexed table of your 1500 .POV files. Then you put som code into this dummy file which (...)

(...) If you have 1500 individual, different .POV files, I don't think you can have them all rendered with one execution of POV-Ray. If these are 1500 frames of a single POV-Ray animation, however, you can use the POV-Ray animation options to render (...) (22 years ago, 17-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

What is the minimum memory a computer needs to render a POV-file with LGEO-parts? 128Mb? 256? more? I know it depends on the size of the file, but is there a sort of guide for it? I need to know for the REND101 manual. Jeroen (22 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
