  MegaPOV available somewhere? (Message 1 to 4 of 4)

I've been checking the MegaPOV website (at http://megapov.inetart.net/)
daily for about a week, and it is still down. I understand that there was a
new Windows version of MegaPOV based on POV 3.5  available there.

Does anyone know if this is mirrored somewhere else? Does anyone have a clue
as to how long the MegaPOV site is likely to remain down?

I wish them all the best in their efforts to get back in operation.

PS: Additional questions that I would be asking sooner or later:

Has anyone worked with the fabric in MegaPOV? There are a lot of variables--
is it fairly easy to get something realistic? Are there any alternatives
available in POV?

Yes. There was.

It seems it should be up next week but I can't promise anything.

Thanks. This phisical and unexpected damage destroyed all services shared at
this location and therefore megapov has lower priority in reconstruction
than commercial apps. But we are on a good way.

Just out of curiosity, what ended up happening to the server?
