  Re: More color problems
 
(...) I don't know POV, but I do know that index of refraction (IoR) shouldn't have any effect on reflections. Perhaps it does, but it shouldn't. You need do decrease the reflectivity, not the IoR. The IoR controls how much light bends when it (...) (21 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: More color problems
 
(...) L3P generates exactly the same color definition for 47, 0x06FFFFFF and 0x03FFFFFF, so normally it shouldn't matter which color you use. However, you include "ldraw_radiosity.inc" which again includes "LDRAW_RAD_COLORl.inc", and in this file (...) (21 years ago, 6-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: More color problems
 
(...) The first problem is that I don't know where to get those, and I've never figured out whether they're included with the radiosity stuff...are they? (...) The problem is that the sky sphere still creates shadows. :( (...) Well, I tried that and (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: More color problems
 
(...) I noticed that in the radiosity code you're using option 1 for the color library. You could try option 2 which is Todd's LUGNET color includes (...) You might consider using shadowless lights (...) Since you using the radiosity include, (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: More color problems
 
(...) And here it is: (URL) The white minifig has turned out beautifully - though the sceptre isn't as clear as I would like. Oh well. Maybe I should just stick with solid white. The problem is that any shadows make the minifig look like it's just a (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: More color problems
 
(...) Orion, This helps a lot - and fixes that problem. I'll remember to use the actual transparent colors in future! I'll post the full render when my sluggish computer actually decides to do something here. Thanks again, ~Mike (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: LPub and MegaPOV again
 
(...) There is NO need to uninstall POV-Ray 3.5! You can have POV 3.1g and 3.5 on the same PC. The ALL-IN-ONE-INSTALLER will attempt to install MEGAPOV into your POV 3.1g directory but if it does not find it it will create it's own folder. Okay here (...)

  LPub and MegaPOV again
 
I finally decided to give LPub another go afte getting the Virtual Lego book last year. I installed everything on a clean machine using the all in one installer on the disk, apart from the fact that I had Povray 3.5 on it already. I have also just (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: More color problems
 
(...) I found you problem Mike. How are you telling MLCad to use Trans-White? I suspect you're clicking Custom and then choosing Transparent. I'm inferring this from L3P inclusion of this color: #declare Color0x06FFFFFF The LDraw color number is 47 (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  More color problems
 
I, like David, am having problems with color as well. I have used transparent elements before and they have rendered beautifully. However, in this case there seems to be something wrong and I really don't know what it is. I am trying to render a (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
