Hello,

A while ago, we found a little patch by  Eric Brown
(http://www.stolaf.edu/people/brownen/wwwroot_new/research/index.html)
changed sources at
(http://www.stolaf.edu/people/brownen/wwwroot_new/research/changes.zip)
You will quickly see what it does if you visit his home page, its easier
than explaning it here :-)

We tried it and it works except for the no_image option when you turn on
the auto bounding system of POV-Ray (make sure it is used by setting the
numer of objects to 1). With the auto bounding on, no_image will also
remove the shadow. If you turn the autobounding off, it works as
expected. 
Also, it doesn't seem to work with the text object. Area lights are also
not working but that we can fix ourselves.

It's a nice patch, it adds lots of posibilities and we would like to
include it in one of our next updates but we are unable to fix it.

Is there someone who can fix this? 
Thanks in advance,


Smellenbergh
