From the character in Dhalgren
Lanya had a very nice dress. This one is an emitting df3.

The effect might even be better with walls around her.

Yes, probably if I had any walls lying around. :-(

I'm just testing a proof of concept. I've been thinking about this for 
years.
Next a UV'd tartan robe.

You can use the blockwall-macros e.g.. How did you craft the df3 from a cloth?

Best regards

Hi Michael, long time no see.

The comment about not having any walls was because I've lost all my data 
from the last three years due to a HDD crash. I think I still have my 
dance studio though. But I don't want to get distracted.

I created the df3s by slicing the cloth mesh horizontally in a vertical 
series. Then combining the slices with jr's tga2df3_2 to create three 
df3s, one for each colour channel.
For the render they were combined as three media's in one material.
BTW the UV'd tartan robe did not work out. It was too patchy some parts 
were over saturated and other parts were invisible. I'll try another UV 
mapping with a different image.


You can find the source code and windows exe in 
povray.binaries.utilities under the title tga2df3_2

"Wall"may be a big word... Just a few,  white or some shade of grey, 
featureless, boxes as backdrops could be enough.

Exactly as Alain says. And avoiding this infinite horizon (and checkered 
planes) helps - in my experience - already a lot in judging early test 
images.

Not 101!

Seriously, tips like the above should be gathered and be readily 
available. For instance, how many people remember Warp's "4 tips to 
improve a simple POV-Ray scene"?
http://warp.povusers.org/povtips/

Anyway, I am admonished and will endeavour to do better.
