In your Pov-Ray directory there are examples
C:\Graphics\POV-Ray for Windows v3.5\scenes\animations\
If you run and look at some of these you will get a good idea.
Run the INI file as this tells Pov-Ray how many frames to render and
the start and end value of the "clock" variable. In the POV file you
will use the "clock" variable to change something e.g. translate x* 5
* clock

See section "2.3.8 Making Animations." You can get there quickly by
pressing the "Scene" button (assuming you're using POV-Ray for Windows),
choosing the "index" tab, typing in "animation" and taking the first result.

Eh? How is a bunch of sequential frames not an animation?

You've forgotten what it's like to be young, Tim :-)
If Pov-Ray created animations, you wouldn't need an other programme to
put the frames together.
BTW what are the mdl's in Moray.b?

standard-sided wall plates for a light switch and outlet. figured i'd
share some of the basic components i've made. i'll be making some
others as i get to needing to model them to put in the 3d model of my
reisdence on which i'm working. figured people'd appreciate pre-made
standard architectural elements so's they can focus on modelling the
unique stuff...

Perhaps you mean "POV-Ray doesn't create video files", which is a
completely different thing?

Right, good idea. I did not recognize them as our switch plates are
square and the outlets have the sockets built in. Have you uploaded
them to the Moray site?

The 'upload.mdl' on the Moray site won't load in Moray 3.5...says it's
DOS only. *shrug*

That may explain why the Last update was: 29th October 2001
Someone should report it to Lutz (Hint :-)

Let's put that somewhere on the Wiki, okay?
