Great PoV gurus,
I am a green, yet eager PoV novice. Here's a bunch of questions:
1. How do I engrave text on the side of e.g. a torus object?
difference {
torus { 2, 0.75
texture { pigment { P_Gold2 } finish { F_MetalC } }
}
text { ttf "timrom.ttf" "TEXT" 1, 0
pigment { color Red }
finish { reflection .25 specular 1 }
translate <-1,-0.3,2.4>
}
scale < 6, 2, 4 >
rotate < 20, -10, 20 >
translate < -1.5, 0.0, -10.0 >
}

In the picture I made it obvious that I can't do it right; I only
differenced the text
object from the ring but the text should first flow with the ring
curvature.
2. How do I get a laser beam, then curve it along a torus object then
get a
lens flare at one end of it ? I know, these are three questions...
3. Is there a place I can go and find all sorts of source files that
could
possible answer some/all my above basic questions?
Many many thanks,
Gitay
