  Re: 3450 Statue of Liberty (LDraw model)
 
(...) Wow, that's a pretty cool idea. Can't have those CPUs sitting around idle. I noticed you posted the same (or similar) post to multiple groups by copying.

  Re: Radiosity, brightness
 
If you're a fan of sky_sphere illumination, you could have just cranked the value a bit. It'll be near the bottom of ldraw_radiosity.inc, under these lines: #if ( LDRAW_RAD_LEVEL > 0) #if ( LDRAW_SKYSPHERE = 1 ) There will be a gradient value for (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Radiosity, brightness
 
(...) Ok, the last hours I was experimenting a little bit further and I came to a quite good result with Jeroen's ldraw_radiosity includes: - Color setting 1 (Jeroen) is too dark when there are no additional lights - Color setting 2 (Todd) is far (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) You could try some low level lights. Like rgb <0.1,0.1,0.1>. This seems to work for me sometimes. -Orion (20 years ago, 27-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Radiosity, brightness
 
Hi! I'm experimenting with LDraw and povray for some weeks now and I'm quite impressed of the results. I downloaded Jeroen's Radiosity include files from (URL) (old version 2.3.1 because I like the more reflecting textures better) and I have to (...) (20 years ago, 27-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Special Effects in POV-Ray
 
How can I make some special effects like Gunflash or explodsions in POV-Ray? (20 years ago, 26-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Help posting first pics
 
(...) Some guesswork, because you don't give much information about what you're trying to do, and if/what error message you recieve: What kind of POVRAY files? What is the extension? Prehaps you try to upload a extension that isn't allowed on (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  My other hobby
 
Years ago, when I had all the time in the world, I busied myself by making chainmail. Lots and lots of it. I've made hauberks, chausses, byrnies, vests, coifs, mantles, gloves, and other stuff, like some crazy knit-happy grandmother. The constraints (...)

Sure! Since I don't... currently know how to upload stuff I'll just give you the whole 'Spline' bit.

  New Animation!
 
Hello, all. I have just discovered POV-Ray's wonderful Spline feature. I was mulling over how to create fluid movements with exponential curves. I did achieve some good results, but the animations are rather small and simple. It then occurred to me (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.animation)

  Re: POVRAY questions
 
(...) Ouch!! You using the same .POV file? If so why is that occuring? Could it be becuase of the code you use for radiosity? As the code was developed for 3.5. -AHui A&M LWorks (URL) (20 years ago, 2-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

  POVRAY questions
 
What you all think of POV-RAY 3.6? Should we update to 3.6 or keep with 3.5 or 3.1g? I use 3.5 for windows but i prefer the 3.5 for cygwin but without cygwin. What if we just work with 3.1g , 3.5 and 3.6 without having to be forced to use the latest (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
