The concept is 4 years old. The newest version of Datsville I could find is
less than a month old:

I moved the camera along a spline curve. This technique is really useful once
you learn how to do it (the sample file included in the POV distro was very
useful).

Yes there are. If you want to render Datsville in it's entirety, unless you
have lots of RAM and a big block of virtual memory allocated, the rendering will
fail due to lack of memory. But I cheated and used only one "block" of
Datsville (town0-1.ldr), not the whole thing.

| (...) I have thought of using Datsville also. (URL) to be 4 years old. Is that right? How did you make your animation? Isn't there suppose to be issues rendering Datsville because of the size? Or is that 4 year old technology problems... ;) James (21 years ago, 29-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
