I am using LPub 2.2.0.0, L3P 1.3, POVRay 3.5 and MegaPov 1.0
Anyone have any ideas?

I believe that LPub is *STILL* using Pov-Ray 3.1g and MegaPOV .7.  You can do
two things:

Can you tell he's annoyed?  That's ok, at BricksWest he made some comment about
being suprised to see me with bricks in my hands.  I've had a huge push on
pneumatic invention and I go where the creative surges send me.

Besides work has been *extremely* demanding lately.  Deadlines are end of
August, and pretty soon it will be less nice outside (think Minnesota winters).
I'll be bored and decide to try the next version of POV.

Maybe POV 3.5 support will cost you *twice* what POV 3.1 support did!  Two times
zero is still zero ;^)



Are you making fun of me Kevin? =)  I am NOT annoyed at all over Pov 3.1g vs
3.5.  In fact I perfer 3.1g vs 3.5, because 3.5 takes longer to render for some
reason.  The ONLY reason I tolerate 3.5 is because of Jeroen De Hann's
Ultra-Realtisc Radiosity Code Snippets which provide "WOW" renderings.
Otherwise I would go with 3.1g.

As for the bricks in your hand. SHAME ON YOU!  I've told you once and I will
tell you again.  LDraw programmers are NOT allowed to touch the brick, only the
virtual brick. =)  I told Tim to lock you guys all up in the dungeon and throw
out the key but I guess you managed to escape, hu? =)

You do know that there is MEGAPov 1.0 now as well, right?  No clue if it's
better than .7, in terms of what Ldraw users use it for.  I think we have
reached a platue in which the current software is exaclty what we need.  There
really is no need for new features in our POVs.

But when you do get 3.5 incorporated into LPub, I'll be sure to complain then!
Do you know why? =) Because I'll have to make another all-in-one-installer.
he,he,he...

I'm thinking that I should update the all-in-one-installer every year anyways.
