  Why does it take long?
 
I have a P-3 at 867mhz with 256MB RAM with 2 hds C: 80GB and d: 20GB I'm using XP Pro. I used Pov-ray 3.1 with a resolution of 320x 240 no AA Initial_clock = 1 Final_clock = 75 Initial_Frame = 1 Final_Frame = 75 Cyclic_Animation = on Why does it (...) (22 years ago, 13-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Nice microfig Star Trek render
 
(...) Bummer. I've been working on a realistic planet generator in POVRay for a while now, and was hoping someone had a better solution than mine! :-, But thanks for the link, just looking at the output from Lunarcell is giving me new ideas...

  Re: Nice microfig Star Trek render
 
It's the same picture of the Constitution from the microfigure gallery. Sorry to disappoint you, but it's not Pov-Ray. I used Adobe Photoshop on it. I used the filter "Lunarcell" to make the planet, then I added the Constitution, I noticed the (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Nice microfig Star Trek render
 
...From Chris Rudesill, in his Brickshelf folder (warning, large image): (URL) how'd you render this? Is it POVRay? I really really like the planet and its features. The lighting is amazing too -- it's an effect I've been trying (in vain) to (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: POV Color Cheat?  [DAT]
 
(...) [ snipped ] Intresting, and yes it will work but with a few buts. First you will need to do the color-declaring before you do your model. And you have to (well, not "have to" but is saver to) "undeclare" (or undef) the old color definition. (...) (22 years ago, 5-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)  
 
  POV Color Cheat?  [DAT]
 
Would it be possible to inline certain hard-to-achieve POV-Ray colors in a primitive file so that the color would be available in rendered models without having to tweak the output file? Something like this: 0 stud.dat primitive 0 L3P IFNOTPOV 1 16 (...) (22 years ago, 5-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: LGEO orientation problem
 
(...) Yes, some of the parts in the LGEO library are wrongly oriented. I've also noticed that the technic triangle was wrong. I've reported these two parts to the author (IIRC), but in the mean time, you can add an ad-hoc rotate statement to these (...) (22 years ago, 1-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  LGEO orientation problem
 
I'm sure I saw something about this some time ago, but I can't find it 8?( When I render using the LGEO library, some parts are rotated by 90 degrees from their correct orientation, eg 6536.dat (Technic axle joiner perpendicular). What causes this? (...) (22 years ago, 1-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
