  RE: different idea for cockpit
 
(...) I use a "fog" object to make the transition from the ground plane to the background smoother. For day scenes, I generally use a very light blue color (like <0.7,0.9,1>). For night scenes, you could use a dark blue <0,0,0.4> or black <0,0,0>. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Screensaver anyone?
 
(...) It's fairly easy to make a Windows screensaver. There are a few API calls to make and catch, but mostly you just compile to a .SCR extension, and stop your program where there is keyboard or mouse activity. Steve (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Screensaver anyone?
 
(...) Combine the fullscreen mode with a generic screen saver and you now have what you're looking for. A quick search for "generic screen saver" turns up AnyServer and perhaps several others that will let you use any executable as a screen saver. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  different idea for cockpit
 
(If you reply to this message, please follow-up to the appropriate, specific newsgroup. Thanks. :-) I came up with what I thought was an unusual orientation for a cockpit for a spaceship or mecha. I quickly built a set of mecha legs for it, and (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

  Ray-Tracing Beginner
 
I know there are a bunch of tutorials and such but I'm still confused. I use MLCad to create my .dat files but that's as far as I go. 1) What are the [minimum number of] and [simplest] programs to create high-quality renderings with? 2) Where/what (...)

  Re: Interior shots of Cathedral of Ice
 
By the way, I'm still happy to distribute the .dat files by email if anyone wants them. There are quite a few sub-models now. (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Interior shots of Cathedral of Ice
 
Previously, my Cathedral of Ice was just a thin shell of bricks with no significant interior. Now, I've added a full interior and posted several pictures. Here is the master index (including both interior and exterior shots): (URL) pictures are (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.build.arch)
 
  Re: Screensaver anyone?
 
Hi, as the author of LDView, I've got two things to add. First, since LDView is not an actual screensaver, you would have no way of having it come on automatically. However, as Calvin pointed out, it will run full-screen. In addition, it supports (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Screensaver anyone?
 
A program called LDView would probably do what you want. It has a full-screen mode and uses real-time Open-GL Rendering. You can get it here: (URL) Calvin Walton (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Change background in povray?
 
(...) The thing with povray is that the standard 3 colors (RED, GREEN, BLUE) have a range from 0 to 1. So if you need "hot" red, you typ in the background RGB code:1,0,0 If you need a darker red you typ 0.5,0,0 and offcourse you can make all the (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
