(...) Lars, Thanks for your good work, and I have just a few requests, in order if decreasing importance: - option to include a file at end and/or begin of .pov file (e.g. for megapov's edge-detection feature, etc.) - placing camera block, (...) (22 years ago, 26-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Aspect ratio (via L3P)
 
(...) Since you mention it... Can you make l3p follow the references to light.dat in subfiles? For instance, if I have a file torch.dat (with light.dat included) used a dozen times in the file castle.mpd, have it include all twelve lights in their (...)

  Re: Aspect ratio (via L3P)
 
Well, Multiple lights would be cool :) But I think this would be just as easy adding yourself via a include file (in that case turning off the default light would be nice too). So I have to agree with sproaticus an option to include a file would be (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Aspect ratio (via L3P)  [DAT]
 
(...) Great! (...) After reading your post, I use the 2nd approach (the view pyramid) to specify the location and orientation of the camera.

I've must have overseen the lights issue, sorry :) with the -il param do you be inserted on the location you ordinairy insert the generated light information? is the location of the light objects critacal? Elseway you could use the include before (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
