(...) Hello Mike Glad to see someone starting into animation. Here are some changes I made to your file. first translate the bowl: translate<-400,0,-400> this will put it at 0,0,0. Second I simplified your Camera definition. Much easier to use. (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

Hi I think that this is caused by the fact that the original MLCAD model is not centered in the virtual space. If you move it so that it's center is at 0,0,0, the camera will rotate around it. /Not 100% sure but I did replicate the above using a (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

Hello all you super-smart PoV-Rayers out there, I've been fooling around with some simple animation the past few days and for some reason I can't seemt o be able to do what I want. I have a bowl-ish shape (thanks Michael L. for the generator in (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

--snip-- (...) Nope. =( It will render the animation in a movie file format (..mpg, .avi, etc..) when you are done. LD4DModler does not go the route of frame-by-frame animation as POV-Ray does, it uses 3D modeling. (The following text comes from a (...)

(...) If you just do a straight "L3P model.dat," then you're right; the whole model fits very nicely in the camera's view (though a little fish-eyed, I find). But if you switch the view to orthographic, the model can appear a bit off-center and (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
