PoseRay does not really support POV-Ray 3.5 anymore. This leads to a 
incomplete support for Moray since that is the version that Moray works 
best with. Although I though of removing Moray export, I left it in 
because Moray is kept alive by the POV-Ray team and hopefully, some day, 
  it will be made compatible with the current POV-Ray release.

I believe you can still use PoseRay 3.12 with Moray. PoseRay 3.13 is 
definitely not compatible with POV-Ray 3.6 or earlier. It only works 
with the current POV-Ray 3.7 release candidate. Not even older release 
candidates.

You could convert all materials to POV-Ray materials in PoseRay and 
manually remove the gamma and change the srgb keywords. I will look into 
having maybe an option for these keywords but I would hate to have 
partial support for older POV-Ray versions.

I could upload older versions of PoseRay but these will include old bugs 
and missing features.
