Hi Jonathan Marchi, you recently wrote in moray.win:

You'll have to be a bit more specific about what you did and how that
didn't work. 

Basically, you create a Standard texture, Add a Pigment, Add an
ImageMap to the pigment and set the filename of the imagemap.

> - How do I make a sky with clouds or a starfield?
Hmmm. I think you should create a sphere, scale it really large, make
it hollow, and then assign a starfield texture to it.

No and yes. POV cannot be converted to MDL, since POV-Ray uses a
rather complex and proprietry parser and it's difficult to read.
MDL can be converted to POV by pressing Ctrl-F9 in Moray.

> And could objects in lightwave be converted to Moray?
Well, sort of. The utility 3DWin that comes with Moray can convert
Lightwave files to a POV-Ray INC and Moray UDO file pair, which you
can then use in Moray.
