Yup. very cool.

Wadda ya know. 5 degrees worked great!

Yup lane 3, 50 units away, and 300 as the lower bound.
now that i know the rotation statements, ill see how some bank on the bird
looks :)
I just got done playing with the rotations, and Ill have a fully rendered one
in about 2 hours or so. Maybe sooner, since im not using the trees now.
(dont want to crash the plane!)
Something that will help people that d0 not know how to include thier pov
models into another one:
All I did to get the *.inc files of the models was get rid of any lights and
camera angles from the original pov file (as well as the statements actually
drawing the model). I did not know this until i saw after three models,
things started to get really washed out from all the light sources, plus there
were twins of the objects.
