hey this has been fun collaboration so to speak. I was serious about this
making a great example scene addition. Chris mentioned (over in the beta
test group) wanting to get the example scenes cleaned up and maybe some
additions. I had a look at what's there now and found nothing about lasers.
There was however a couple of photon examples
(scenes/incdemo/glasses/glass.pov and scenes/lights/phot_met_glass.pov). I
also think adding variable quality settings is a good idea. my typical test
scene low qaulity was just shy of a hour ... high quality went 10 hours
before I stopped it. I have a single core 2.4ghz system :-( The
concave/convex reflectors was a great idea (a mini physics lesson) that's
why I think it would make a great example scene. if you into posting the
code i'll pretty it up (add comments and such) and variable quality options
..... maybe even work on the glass if you haven't started that.
Jim
