Hi, I'm a brand new user (as of about half an hour ago). I've been trying to
follow the basic tutorial but POV crashes without fail every time I try to
render something, right after rendering it. The render displays, a PICT
file gets written to the disk and then the program just hangs.
Is there any reason for / way around this? It's intensely annoying.
OS X 10.2.6
POV-Ray 3.5.1
This is the script from the tutorial if that helps at all:
<code>#include "colors.inc"
#include "stones.inc"
camera {
location <0, 2, -3>
look_at <0, 1, 2>
}
sphere {
<0, 1, 2>, 2
texture {
pigment { color Red }
}
}
light_source { <2, 4, -3> color White}</code>

Does it work when you output to a different format, say PNG?

What version are you using? Many people, including me (but apparently not
Thorsten, who's developing it), have had problems with the release 3.5
(build 173). The newer 3.5.1 public beta (build 187) works much better.
Get it from http://mac.povray.org/download/macosx102.html

It doesn't crash here.

He said he is using 3.5.1, and the only one he can run is the one on the
website you mention because the previous 3.5.1 beta expired long ago...

Right - I see it now. Was I blind or what?? I read his message several
times searching for a version number but didn't see one...
Well, for 3.5.1 I can't help either. It's rock solid here (10.3.1).
