You mention the 'pattern' feature to create an image map from a pigment.
However, this is old information. They keyword and functionality has been
changed to something more logical.

Also, I'm not completely sure of the fate of the spline feature - maybe it
was not so bad after all that it wasn't included in the article!

The article was written before this change. There was little I could do. I
just sent it to Rick and he worked on putting it up. We might put up a
little update later.

I really didn't have much time to cover that anyway. :\
You like the rest of it though?

For those who are interested:
The 'pattern' feature, which was used in MegaPov for creating a bitmap
from a pigment has been changed in both name and functionality.
Firstly, the name is just plain silly: It has nothing to do with a pattern.
This will be changed to something more logical.
Secondly, instead of making a bitmap from a pigment, it will make it from
a function. As a function can be a pigment function, this means that it will
have the same functionality as in MegaPov (with just a slight syntax change).
However, it adds a lot of functionality to it because you can also use a
pattern function or a regular function (which will create b/w bitmaps, which
are just perfect to create a heightfield).
Thirdly, (IIRC) you can #declare this kind of bitmap "function" and use it
as a regular function. Which means that you can evaluate it, call it inside
other functions and so on.

Hi Tony, great job on that preview article. I haven't seen much of it yet,

I always have trouble reaching .co.uk sites. Even with a T1 connection
at work the site loads slowly. I don't even bother trying it at home
with a dial-up connection.

And as I said, that just might be a good thing...

Yes, it was very nice! :)
(But maybe you could have mentioned the new official logo, which is now
plastered all over the package? Well, it's quite apparent from some of the
screenshots anyway...)
BTW, could you send me your modified version of the mountain image (with the
slope pattern)?
