Steve,

Try setting both pretrace_start and pretrace_end to big numbers (maybe set
them to the same number).  Also, make sure you have the file name correct
and that the file is located in the same folder as the POV file (POV might
not complain if it can't find the file).

I wonder if anyone can help.

I'm trying to get megapov to load radiosity data for use in a scene.
Whenever I put load_file into the radiosity block megapov then attempts to
pretrace the scene again as if it had ignored the instruction. Even when
pretrace_start and pretrace_end have been commented out, it is still trying
to calculate some values.

What lines should I remove or leave in the radiosity block so that megapov
will use the data I have already saved?

Many thanks,
Steve
