  Re: Simple POV-Ray Question - Perspective
 
(...) As long as you let L3P calculate the camera distance, the whole model should be visible, and (mostly) fill the frame. I just copied the L3P auto-camera algorithm into LDView, and it works consistently for me with camera angles ranging from 0.1 (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: LEGO animation software
 
(...) Ahui showed me that site just the other day; that guy is wonderful. My brain hurts. I'd be very, very interested in seeing some tutorials on your animations, Steve. I watched your entire Brickshelf animation collection a couple days ago and (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.animation, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: LEGO animation software
 
(...) Hello I dont have much experience with writing programs. But I am working on writing a tutorial on how to make animations with povray using the clock, transform, and rotate commands. Maybe a couple of weeks. For now this is the best site I (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.animation, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Simple POV-Ray Question - Perspective
 
(...) I've run into this problem, and my caveman-sophistication led me simply to translate the object a little to put it back in line with the look_at coordinates. Even so, I often have to change the "PCT" value to 5 or 10 to accommodate all of my (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Simple POV-Ray Question - Perspective
 
(...) Don't you then have to move the camera a ways back to get all your objects in the image compared to larger camera angles? This is what I tend to do, long ways away, small canera angle (anaogous to "telephoto" in real photogs, the images there (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Simple POV-Ray Question - Perspective
 
(...) Using orthographic does not always work. You can get the same effect by seeing the camera angle to 0.1 Kevin (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Simple POV-Ray Question - Perspective
 
(...) Just add the word orthographic. You may have to adjust the location. camera { orthographic location <708.303,-747.057,-563.561> sky -y right -4/3*x look_at <176.812,4.58475,-32.0701> angle 67.3801 rotate <0,1e-5,0> } Steve (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Simple POV-Ray Question - Perspective
 
(...) In the camere code block, uncomment "orthographic." You may have to play with the camera location and look_at, because the camera appears to move when you render in orthographic mode, but that does the trick. Also, higher values for angle (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Simple POV-Ray Question - Perspective
 
Hi All, I should know this ... what's the trick for turning off "perspective", if you will, so that you can do a straight-on side view? That is, to remove the "vanishing into the horizon" effect? ISO views, is that what it's called? Ugh ... HELP! -s (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: LEGO animation software
 
(...) I'm curious. Have you used L4DModeller? If not, have a look here: (URL) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.animation, lugnet.cad.ray)
