  Re: Urgent help with POV needed...
 
(...) POV-RAY automatically "saves" the image as a BitMap file ("*.bmp") in the directory that you specified when you installed POVRAY (in my case, it was "\povray\images\"). You must then use the image/photo editor of your choice to convert the (...) (24 years ago, 22-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Urgent help with POV needed...
 
I'm having some POV trouble, I'm a newbie at Raytracing, so bare with me. I get the image I want rendered OK, but I don't know how to save the IMAGE. I can save the POV file, but not the image. Please Help, I need this by Sunday for a christmas (...) (24 years ago, 22-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: "Cartoon" renderings??

  "Cartoon" renderings??
 
G'day folks, I've noticed a bunch of renderings around that look a little cartoonish. Notably all of the pieces have edgelines. Here's an (awesome!) example: (URL) the rendering doesn't look like a photorender, as the colours and shadows are very (...) (24 years ago, 22-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Free-Form Camera Positioning with MLCAD, L3P, and POV-RAY
 
Yes - It would be great to have a camera file. We would need a "lookat" file as well. Thanks again Michael for such an excellent piece of software. I have to say that (besides LEGO), its one of the best toys I've ever had! Brad Michael Lachmann (...) (24 years ago, 16-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Free-Form Camera Positioning with MLCAD, L3P, and POV-RAY
 
I've never tried to use camera options until now, but I think we can enhance that if we have a camera-file (like the light.dat) which L3P counts in. This way it's easy to define the camera - position and orientation ... Regarding the description (...) (24 years ago, 16-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
