What could happen if I do something wrong? I've got Linux Red Hat 9 on the
other computer and I've done that installation there some time ago, but if I
tray it on the Mac and I do something wrong what could happen here?
I've reported the problem to the Mac support, I don't know if they will read
it.

I have the same problem on my iMac Core Duo. POV 3.6 launches, but then
quits immediately
MagMegaPOV does run OK, but slowly, under Rosetta, I guess, not much if any
faster than on my old 350Mhz Yosemite machine.

You do NOT need to install LINUX. You need to get the POV-Ray UNIX source
code archive and just need to compile it. But as said before, if you don't
know that, or how to do that, you likely cause more damage to your system
than anything else. Thus, for your own good, don't try it unless you know
what you are doing.

Yeah. so maybe it's better don't do it because it's the first Mac that I've
bought and I'm still learing how to use it and I've no idea about how to
compile that Unix software here. I've done some time on my desk computer,
there I've Linux Red Hat 9.0 and Pov-Ray works fine.
Well, we will wait for some system update.

I didn't have any trouble launching POV-Ray 3.6 on my MacBook Pro-- there
must be something wrong with your system.
You might try the new MacMegaPOV Universal Binary Beta 1, which has just
been announced on these newsgroups.

Compiling the POV-Ray for Unix source code works exactly the same way on
Mac OS X as on Linux. If you've done it on Linux, there's no reason not
to try it on Mac OS X.
I don't think you can do anything wrong if you only configure, compile
and install (and use) POV-Ray on the command line and use the Finder to
do things like deleting files. Again, you can (and can't) do exactly the
same things on the command line on Mac OS X as on Linux.

Can you use Pov-Ray there? I've installed Pov-Ray when the computer was new,
so, I think I can't have problems with the system.
MacMegaPov is the same as Pov-Ray?

Hi Chistian,
So, if it's the same I can do it.
I will try it.
Thanks,

It is the same but there are a few extra features added.
Standard POV-Ray files render just the same.
Just try it!
