| (...) Wow, a blast from the Future that Never Was. Very cool. Where's the robot Elvis, though? Oh, and how do you get your models to float? <grins, ducks and runs> ++Lar (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.cad.ray)

You'll notice that the MPD file is in the colors I actually built the model--white. --Bram (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.cad.ray)

| (...) What kind of texture did you use for the chrome pieces, BTW? In my opinion, it has a tad bit too much reflection. I can't see that the parts are silver, I only see the reflection of the environment in them. Also, did you try to add a (low key) (...)

| Very cool! Did you do anything special to the bottom of the car in the ray-trace? In the reflection, it looks almost like you have placed tiles there upside down, but the MPD has plates for the bottom. Or is it an optical illusion? James (...)

| (...) Thanks. (...) It's an optical illusion--well, actually, it's probably just a limitation of POV-Ray. AFAIK, reflective surfaces in POV don't actually reflect the light rays that bounce off of them, so no light reaches the bottom of the car, so (...)

| I didn't know that about POV-ray. The only things I've rendered in it have been floating in space, so I've never tried something hovering over a reflective surface. Is the POV file available for download somewhere? I need a 1024x768 version for my (...) (24 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.cad.ray)

| this is quite cool, bram. i particularly like the use of pink elements and the bubble over the cockpit/driver's seat. it opens up a whole new range of possibilities (flying versions of classic cars). good stuff! ..joseph g (...)

It looks fine in white, too, which is the RL color of the model) --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com (...)
