  Re: Missing seams
 
(...) Thanks for the quick response. But I'm still confused about something. If POV-Ray doesn't draw lines/seams, then what causes the other parts to display seams in the POV-Ray picture? (Such as the supporting bricks for the forklift rails) Thanks (...) (18 years ago, 24-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Missing seams
 
(...) Hi David, The problem is a shortcoming in L3P. The way L3P adds seam "lines" is to shrink the pieces by a small amount. How L3P determines what to shrink (since it wouldn't be appropriate to shrink any subpart assemblies) may introduce the (...) (18 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Missing seams
 
(...) Hi David, The short answer is that there are no seams, only lines. Since a line is a one-dimensional object it is invisible in POVray. The long answer is that POVray won't show edge lines because they are not really useful and don't fit with (...) (18 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Missing seams
 
Any idea why the some pieces don't show seams in POV-Ray but they do in MLCad? Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere. I did search for it, but I didn't find anything. (Newbie to all this.) For example, this is the model as seen in MLCAD. (...) (18 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

(...) For added authenticity colour everything brown and black, make a sticky floor and fill it with smoke. Unfortunately a render can't simulate the smell of old beer and tobacco but you can pretend. Tim (18 years ago, 21-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Raytracing Challenge II: Remix Disco
 
Thank You, Tim, for the challenge! I will try to master it. Even if the the first obstacle for me will be the impression of a disco, since that kind of location is still quite full of mysteries for a nerd (ok...geek) like me :-( Andreas (18 years ago, 21-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Raytracing Challenge II: Remix Disco
 
Hi all, Well, thanks to some recent encouragement from Zach Best and at the end of the first challenge I've decided to run this again with a new model. I do hope people enter as I very much enjoy seeing the different interpretations of the same (...) (18 years ago, 21-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: Bugs in rad_def.inc
 
(...) Thanks Niels, but the kudos go to Koyan Derudder (URL). All I did was take his work and put it in magazine format, along with a model that's easy to build. Koyan did all of the hard part, and we should be thanking him. :-) (18 years ago, 10-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Bugs in rad_def.inc
 
(...) Thank YOU for making that great tutorial Geoff I'm sure we're many that has really been needing that for a long time: Personally I tried to assemble the bits and pieces strewn across lugnet and brickshelf to get the kind of renderings I've (...)
