The most likely problem is that textures are undefined.  Moray isn't
100% compatible with Polyray in that regard (and it would be really
difficult to make it compatible for textures).

To check to see what's really going wrong, open up a console window,
change to the PolyScn directory, and run polyray on the .pi file.  You
will probably get an error message with a line number.  Edit the .pi
file and see what's there.  You may have to build an .inc file with
appropriate standin textures.

A question for you - what in Polyray 1.8a would you want to see in the
plugin that isn't there?  Given the way textures work in Moray, It's
much easier to write C++ classes to simulate the POV-Ray textures than
it is to figure out how to translate them into the older Polyray scene
language.
