  Re: Fix for Trans - light - blue showing as trans-dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
Here is another sample of conversion to the "correct" color. Here is the original (with the darker trans-blue windows): (URL) is one with the trans-light-blue color corrected: (URL) this case, I think that the "incorrect" (i.e. dark blue) original (...)

  Re: Light trans blue in MLCAD comes out as trans dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
Hi Larry, I just tried using 43 for 41 and it comes out looking way too green. I found the solution though. Check out my next post in lugnet.cad.ray!

  Fix for Trans - light - blue showing as trans-dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
I recently posted to lugnet.cad.ray asking for a solution to this problem. When you use L3p to convert .dat files to .pov, it seems to convert the trans-light-blue parts into trans-dark-blue. Based on the suggestions, I think I've isolated the (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Light trans blue in MLCAD comes out as trans dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
(...) I'll give that a whirl, thanks very much!!!! However I would say this is "wrong" on the face of it, since it's counterintuitive. If this color 43 is really trans light blue, it ought to be named that in common usage, including within all the (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Light trans blue in MLCAD comes out as trans dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
Thanks for posting this Bram. How would I use this? (Assuming I am using MLCAD, l3p, and then POV-RAY)? Is there a way to make it a global include for POV-RAY? If I have to keep manually including it, that would be kind of annoying. I guess I could (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  RE: Light trans blue in MLCAD comes out as trans dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
(...) I've hacked together an include file which uses Anton Raves colors for the most part, which is closer to the real LEGO spectrum. It doesn't include all the colors (I add them as I need them), but you can get a copy here: (URL) Lambrecht (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Light trans blue in MLCAD comes out as trans dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
(...) Didn't someone mention an include color file for POV that more accurately portrays the LEGO spectrum? Perhaps this might allay some issues. J (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  RE: Light trans blue in MLCAD comes out as trans dark-blue in POV-RAY
 
(...) Right group, imo. Which color are you using for the trans-light blue windows? IIRC, L3P recognizes color 43 (Trans-lt-cyan) as the color of lightly tinted LEGO windows. Maybe color 41 (Trans-lt-blue) should be interpreted the same way...Lars? (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
