I am fairly new to Pov-Ray and am currently not able to work on a movie my
friends and I are making because for some odd reason Mo-Ray will not
cooperate with Pov-Ray.  I have downloaded Mo-Ray and and the Mo-Ray plugin
but when I run Mo-Ray i get a message saying  " The plugin i3Dto3D could
not be loaded"  and Mo-Ray wont communicate. Both progams seem to work fine
though.

Make sure that you have Moray pointed at the Pov-Ray executable in
Rendering options (Alt + F9). Be aware that Moray works best with Pov
3.5.

It is good that I at least have that information but, it does me no good. I
have check that moray is directed right and it is.  When I Raytrace a third
of the time Moray fails to open Povray. Another third it opens Povray with
my most previously viewed file open.  The last third of the time Povray
opens then both programs stop responding.

POV 3.6 is known to not play well with Moray 3.5...suggest you use POV 3.5.

As my Lord Cook of Empyrean :-) said use Pov 3.5. Maybe I should have
made that more obvious in my original post.
