Hi Anders -
I'm using this code, with amazing results!! I've tweaked the assumed_gamma
and reflection values to get a good LEGO look. One thing I'm still puzzled
at is how to get the fuzzy shadow underneath objects? I'm not a POV guru...
hope someone can help??

Thanks!

-Tim

   Here's a little followup about my experimentation (along with a new • test
image-> http://tubafrog.com/temp/442update.jpg ).

   My festivities have hit a big snag when I tried using transparent • pieces.
I guess these pieces send the radiosity rays ascattering, creating a
tremendous load on the system. I have yet to achieve a proper render while
using radiosity and transparent pieces; I am getting black spots all over,
even when cranking up max_trace_level to high levels.

Hmm, I've made some tests too, but not seen anything like what you describe.
Veeerrryyy slow to render with radiosity, though, and a bit difficult to get
the colors I want.

Absolutely no post-processing done to these (OK, made .jpg of them),
transparent parts in two of them.
