(...) It's even easier than that. Just run C:\LDRAW\MODELS>l3p -o -cg30,45 -ca5 somedat.dat and L3P will automatically compute the radius for an angle of 5. I almost always change the camera angle to something between 30 and 50. (-ca30, -ca50) For (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.faq)

Sproaticus: (...) There is a camera type for this. It should be enough to add "orthographic" at the beginning of the camera definition[1]. It could be fun, if the DAT Explorer switched to cylindrical projection so we could get to look all the way (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.faq)

(...) Argh! It's so simple! ;-) I swear, I'd get over these hurdles more easiliy if there was a recent book for POV-Ray... It would probably help if I read the whole doc, too, but it's like reading a dictionary (I usually get stuck around "G"). :-P (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.faq)

(...) This is very simple to achieve. You simply insert the "orthographic" statement inside the "camera" declaration. This will generate an image with the same perspective as LDLITE does, i.e., no perspective at all. Of course, you'll need to alter (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.faq)

I think that's the right question. I'm trying to get L3P to give me zero skewing from perspective; I want an isometric view such as what LDraw gives me. I'm taking the approach that to do this in photography, you should get real far back and zoom (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.faq)
