I not against cooperation with you.
I do this work quicker to receive full-function addon.
Therefore I ask questions on this site.
It is important to me to know that can achieve and that it is impossible.
Nobody prompted to me how to bypass defect: long time with bad quality when
using media scattering with mesh2.
I am inclined to replace mesh with povray object "superellipsoid"
I will involve for this purpose the Blender boolean modifier
When I learn the potential, we will be able to talk about cooperation.
But, I support creation of the separate interface for Povray in Blender.
Otherwise many parameters remain unused. They will prevent the user to be guided
and find the necessary.
You don't need to stop the work, I always watch development of the official
version.
Ahead still there is a lot of work

Due to the problem of media scattering with photons there is a new question.
From a floor on a wall light which color is reflected is set by the reflection
parameter, but really the floor can have multi-color reflection which as I
understood, it is impossible to set.
