Hi,
Have just started looking at MPOV but any Render commands fail with the
message "Init Error: Failed to chdir to '/Applications/2D

path."



I am new to POVRay/MPOVRay but should mention POVRay runs OK.

Any suggestions?

Cheers

This indicates that you are using the Mach-O version.
Simply remove '∞' from your folder name and it will work.
Or use the Carbon version which will run like POVRay.

Cheers,

Many thanks,
removing the special characters from the directory name solved the
problem.
