A gelatinous torus with a blue ball in the center, of course. j/k
Not much, is it?
If I remember right this would have rendered about a half day on my
486-33SX. That's right, no coprocessor.
Well, I have no idea why you would want the script for it and I was going
to post it here immediately, however, I failed to find it even after a
very in depth search here. To make it worse, while trying to locate the
file, if it still exists, I definately remember naming the image
"within.tga" although the script itself could be named anything
(glsdonut.pov?). Dates back to '93 after all. I even used Windows Find to
look for a possible text string inside all the files. I'm afraid I may
have house-cleaned and deleted the file long ago when I was juggling the
disk space for more renders. I got down to 0 bytes left on many occasions
while attempting animation frame output.
Want to see a quick remake? Here you go, not like the original sadly, this
isn't scene-file worthy so I'll drop it in here relating to this thread:
