  Anyone willing to render a scene for me?
 
I am not a POV guru or a programmer, so when I want to render two pictures of an indoor scene, but I have almost no clue how to do it. The scene is of 16 minifigs in a living room, sitting more or less in a circle. Ideally, the only light would be (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

Hi Rob - I suggest you just export the POV file from L3PAO, and open it in POV 3.5 manually, instead of trying to render from L3PAO. Doing that works just fine for me. You may want to tweak a few things in the POV code, and may need to set your (...) (22 years ago, 6-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Updated Axle and Connect POV primitives
 
I updated the axle and connect primitve POV file. I also added POV code to the axlehole and connect primitves so that L3P add my code automatically. I put these in a zip file that just needs to be put into the /P directory. let me know if these are (...) (22 years ago, 1-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  PolyTech Industries Model 2H

  Re: POV 3.5, Radiosity, and Multiple Passes??
 
Got it! Actually, it wasn't the L3P colors, it was the color inc file Jeroen mailed me. He found the bug and mailed me a fix (which I fwd'ed to you and the others I have send this file to). I looked at the file on my spare computer, and there it (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: POV 3.5, Radiosity, and Multiple Passes??
 
You are probably going to kick yourself for this one. You're right about the color white, but it has to do with how you defined it. The rgb had one too many values: rgb <0.975, 0.975, 0, 900> instead of: rgb <0.975, 0.975, 0> :) Thanks for the (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

Your post made me curious so I rendered a image using that part. I had the part in combinations of by itself and with a minifig, solid and transparent, and with and without radiosity. I also rendered with and without the LGEO library. Other than (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: POV 3.5, Radiosity, and Multiple Passes??
 
Ok, so I figured something out. It's not the model I'm rendering or the radiosity settings that are taking forever, POV is hanging on _one_ part. A 1x2x3 panel. It was clear in my first attempt, so I changed it to white (Color15). Still hangs on (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
