Thanks Mark,

Now the music is playing and it feels much better :-)
It would be great to have such a game with Pov rendered graphics and pseudo
real-time reflections. Don't you think so?

Regarding the image, the hoses are quite nice. I would rather use some other
texture for the ball (chrome?), and maybe I would increase its diameter a
little too.

Best regards / Fernando

Anyone with a semi-recent computer (5-7 years old) can play Marble 
Madness, if they don't mind 'pirating' it. You can get a Nintendo 
emulator and find a copy of Marble Madness almost anywhere on the 'net.

Nice image, by the way. I like how you sunk the hoses into the surface 
like that.

Dave, I have now put the sourcecode together with a
larger version of the image onto the povray page at
my website:

If you have any more questions, then please ask.

Thanks.

I was figuring it out pretty well from your "cubic space division" code
(nice image btw), but this should help.

I really like the way you organize your code; I find it easy to learn from.

I just went googling for more info. And found some
relevant pages. But it seems that I will need one or
more ROM images. I'll google some more...

This is going a little off-topic.... but you can try searching for 
"marblemadness.zip" & "nes" at google to find it.

Happy gaming :)
