 | | POV Color Cheat? —Dave Schuler
|
| | | Would it be possible to inline certain hard-to-achieve POV-Ray colors in a primitive file so that the color would be available in rendered models without having to tweak the output file? Something like this: 0 stud.dat primitive 0 L3P IFNOTPOV 1 16 (...) (22 years ago, 5-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| | | | (...) [ snipped ] Intresting, and yes it will work but with a few buts. First you will need to do the color-declaring before you do your model. And you have to (well, not "have to" but is saver to) "undeclare" (or undef) the old color definition. (...) (22 years ago, 5-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| | | | | | (...) If you want to see the medium blue in LDView, just add the following line to C13-73.dat (anywhere outside the IFPOV section): 0 !COLOUR Medium_Blue CODE 13 VALUE #6E99C8 EDGE 0 Tore, is the color 24 line in the file necessary in order to make (...)

| | | | | | | (...) Good to know. Thanks! (...) I kind of recall that. In some cases, I've seen that L3P ignores an LDraw file with just Type 0 lines. I haven't checked if the IFPOV code makes it not ignore C13-73.dat, but I just did it in a routine manner. /Tore (18 years ago, 9-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| | | | | | Re: colors.dat (Was: POV Color Cheat?) —Travis Cobbs
|
| | | | I have two comments. First of all, it appears that you divided the colors in ldconfig.ldr by 256, instead of dividing by 255. For example, blue in ldconfig.ldr has RGB values of 0, 51, 178. Dividing these by 256 yields the values you have below, (...) (17 years ago, 30-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad.ray)
