Hi all !

I have a simple (hope) problem...

I created a pov scene with a SOR object representing a cristal glass.

How about 'pouring' liquid in it ? I would like to make it half full of red
or white wine ... does anyone any idea ?

Thanx in advance !!!

I can think of a couple different ways to do it. try a composite of
primatives to "fill in" the area you want liquid in or create another SOR
that will fit just inside your glass. if your glass is cylindrical then it's
easy but if it is shaped "oddly" then SOR may be the way to go. I would have
to see the pic to offer any more suggestions then that though. post either
the source or the pic for a more detailed answer. HTH. also if you go to
http://www.fortunecity.com/victorian/hurst/253/index.htm you can see how I
did it in dinneralone.jpg (was my first rendered image so isn't exactly
perfect)
