I'd love to utilize MegaPOV but when I render a scene with MegaPOV enabled
all I get is a black picture and a no objects in scene warning. Does
MegaPOV utilize some new object coding or am I doing something wrong.

Here's my code snippet:
version unofficial MegaPov 1.0;
#declare connect5_dot_dat = object{
union {
difference {
merge {
cylinder {<0,-18,0>,<0,-20,0>,6.5}
cylinder {<0,-18,0>,<0,-2,0>,6}
cylinder {<0,0,0>,<0,-2,0>,8}
}
box {<-7,-12,-1>,<7,-21,1>}
cylinder {<0,1,0>,<0,-21,0>,4}
box {<-1,1,9>,<1,-10,-9>}
}
}
}
object {
object {connect5_dot_dat}
material{
texture {
pigment { rgb <0.968627,0.160784,0.054902> }
finish {
ambient 0.4
diffuse 0.4
phong 0.5
phong_size 40
reflection 0.08
}
normal {
bumps 0.01
scale 20
}
}
}
}
sky_sphere {
pigment {
gradient -y
color_map {
[0.5 rgb 1.25]
[1 rgb <.5,.7,1>*1.1]
}
}
}
camera {
location <30,30,30>
look_at <0,0,0>
}
light_source {
<50,50,50>
color rgb <1,1,1>
}
