  Re: help!!! - light sources in POV-RAY
 
(...) Wow, thanks. I'll play with it a bit... Say, does anyone know if there's any kind of FAQ or tutorial or even a *book* in print for POV 3.1? Everything I'm coming across is for 3.0, which isn't very helpful in terms of the media stuff... (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

I like to use my own (well, actually, Anton Raves') colors, so I always have to delete the color definitions from (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: help!!! - light sources in POV-RAY
 
(...) I was pretty disappointed to discover that light sources don't cut it, not in the POV-Ray world. What you need to do is set those pieces' colors to have a high ambience, like 3. For example, say in your POV file you have the following color (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Well, sure... It's called ONYX's L3P Add On. Now that I have figured out what makes it crash, It's wonderful. One trick is that you will pretty much always have to manually adjust the floor groundplane in the POV file if the model is at all (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
