Hi
I started using Pov a few weeks ago. I downloaded some excellent glass pov
files such as wineglass.pov and glasswater.pov.
My computer crashed and I had to re install everything. Now glass is black.
The files glass.inc and glas_old.inc are there and the files render with no
error messages.
What's gone wrong?

In wineglass.pov it was at 5
In glasswater.pov it was at 32*3
I tried 11 50 and 100   - no change.

I'be found the reason. I'd put the render quality at 2.
