Hi Guys,
I have been following this thread and I am extremely interested in the VW
rendering. I'm the author of the BricWorx instructions
(www.bricworx.com/801-instructions.jpg) and would love to get this "look"
for my instruction steps. Bram, I would be grateful if you spent some more
time on the details of this rendering technique.
Bob's lighting looks like XYZ lights all at the same distance. Whereas the
VW looks like the lights in the front and the side of the car are dimmer or
further away then the top. Or is it that the car isn't orthogonal to the 3
axis's? This can be clearly seen at the end of the front bumper on the
drivers side (US).
Also it seems that the texture of the material (plastic elements) has no
reflective qualities. Make me want to say that it's flat shaded, but the is
a gradient on the hub caps and fenders.
As for the lines I need to down load mega POV and try find_edges option. I
read this section and notice there are 6 params, how did you set these up?

| (...) You are correct, all reflection was turned off. I'll outline the important bits: First, you *cannot* use LGEO parts, since they don't have the sharp edges that the find_edges process picks up. Second, to get an image without perspective, you (...)
