  Re: "Illusions"
 
(...) I've played around with this a bit and I think what is happening is that you're trying to accomplish several things at once, and some collide with others. By setting the transparency and transmit values high, you're bascially instructing the (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: "Illusions"
 
(...) I've never done CGI artwork before, so I couldn't say how this Filter function should work. I did, however, study theatrical lighting design in college, so I have some solid knowledge about how light works. For instance, if you place an object (...)

  Re: "Illusions"
 
(...) Well, it certainly sounds logical, but I thought that was what 'filter' did. Well, let me have a look at the documentation. ... Here we are: The 4th component, called filter, specifies the amount of filtered transparency of a substance. Some (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

  Re: "Illusions"
 
(...) I was trying to make the flame pieces a little more transparent. I thought there were a little too "strong." It was just a little overbearing.

(...) No, I was editing the properties of the transparent color using Transmit. The only code I changed was for Color57, here: #ifndef (Color57) #declare Color57 = #if (version >= 3.1) material { #end texture { pigment { [rgbt < 1,0.4,0,.8 >] #if (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Can you upload the pov-file? I'm sure the answer is hidden in there :) I think that you have used the "looks like" option of a light. I had always problems with that option and got nearly similar results. (21 years ago, 2-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
