(...) As always, amazing models! A little bit of constructive criticism on raytracing (not that I'm an expert...[1]) Take, for example, this image: (URL) model is great, but I'd love to be able to see the detail better.

I downloaded this really cool loader model: (URL) MLcad, the claws are black. After making the POV file with L3P, the claws render yellow in POV and some of the decals go away. Looking at the files closer, I noticed that the claw part is defined as (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
