Well, i've never heard of *.iv files and google couldn't help me with that
in a rush. In addition i don't know how you "imported" them to POVRay
whereas the texture coordinates get lost (how can POVRay import files?).
Maybe this is a typo and you meant *.uv files (but i never heard of those
either) but from what you wrote i guess you mean uv mapping as it is called
in POVRay and that is supported very well! Maybe you want to look up
"2.5.7 UV Mapping" in the docs.

Hope that helpes

ps: english isn't my native language either and i'm not the only one in this
forum. i was told there's no need to apologize for poor grammar :D
