I've released a new alpha of UVPov. Here's a quick look at the recent
changes. Check the website for details
http://nathan.kopp.com/patched.htm
June 9, 1999 - alpha 5 update (5.2) - POV 3.1e editor now works
1.POV 3.1e editor now works (at least as far as I've tested it). :-)
2.POV 3.1a editor still works, too.
3.Automatic determination of range_divider (if you don't know what I'm
talking about, then ignore this).
4.New "save_file" and "load_file" commands in global_settings{photons{} }
can save and load photon map data.
5.Shortcuts ($ and %) for #declare and #local (e.g. $a=100; instead of
#declare a=100;)
6.Some of the various changes in this version have not been well tested
specifically the changes to #declare and #local), but if there are
major problems I will fix them as quickly as possible.
-Nathan

If I interpret this new feature correctly, it sounds like a huge
parsing time savings when shooting lots of photons. Can't wait to try
it! Thanks very much, Nathan.

I fixed a bug that caused problems with #declare in some scenes, so if you
downloaded 5.2 you should go get 5.3.

Thank you very much. I just downloaded, I haven't tried it in
the past but it looks fun.
I did attempt to render a mesh I have and got an "error:object or
directive expected but{found instead." the same file runs fine in
pov3.1e .

Like I said, the "#declare" stuff is quite untested (I just tested it on a
bunch of the scenes that come with pov, such as the fractal pyramid
macro test scene). If anyone has a simple scene that won't parse in
UVPov, please send it to me and I will get it working. Sorry for any
inconvenience.

The scene I have is over 1mb, it's a Rhino modeller output. The scene's
nothing special I'm just trying out Rhino, but if you want it I'll
send it to you. It's a very large mesh, I don't know if that has
something
to do with it.
Actually I get a similar result when I run uv_demo.pov

Ok. It's fixed now. Go get version 5.3 from the website. Thanks for
helping me crush this bug. :-)
