Hi Jeroen -
This looks great! I plugged it into MegaPOV and replaced my color
definitions in a POV file with your code. MegaPOV is having a hard time
understanding your statements:

#if (BUMPS) normal { BUMPNORMAL } #end

Any tips?

Well, you shouldn't actually replace the definitions but place them after
line 16 (#declare BUMPNORMAL = normal { bumps 0.01 scale 20 } and before the
line saying: # declare 07071 = sqrt(0.5);. Remove the lines #declare AMB =
0.4; and #declare DIF = 0.4;

The BUMPS thingy is implemented by Lars to give parts a more real life
reflection by distorting it a bit. Look at this picture
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=215786 and look at the
reflection of the horizon and you'll know what I mean.

Happy rendering, Jeroen

  Excellent rendering with MegaPov 1.0 !!!
 
Hi all, Forget my last post about MegaPov 0.7, yesterday MegaPov 1.0 was announced (see: (URL) )! And it is compatible with POV-Ray 3.5. Hopefully it is still as fast as version 0.7. Jeroen (22 years ago, 1-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
