I suspect it'll be quite a while before some of the dust settles from the
3.1 -> 3.5 change.  Until then, I'm recommending that everyone stick with
3.1 and MegaPOV.  FWIW, the vast majority of the new 3.5 features are
already present in MegaPOV, albeit using different syntax...

I also expierenced errors in MegaPOV after installing POV-Ray 3.5. Is • that
possible? Does MetaPOV use the POV-Ray eninge?

AFAIK, MegaPOV has *NOT* been updated to be compatable with POVRay 3.5.

I too had problems with 3.5 so went back and installed 3.1.  WRT MegaPOV -
where is the best place to download the current version of it?

Their goal is to force everyone to use the latest (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
