Wow! What a treasure trove of POV-ray people! I have spent the last
hour going over hundreds of messages. I still haven't found an answer
to what you may call a very simple problem.
I want to create reefs for an underwater scene. It seemed logical to
use a height_field so I created a bitmap image to use as my height_field
but POV-ray will not recognize the file type. I can't find a bitmap to
targa converter. Am I approaching this all wrong?
height_field {
sys "reef.bmp"
pigment {White}
smooth
translate <-.5, -1, 0>
water_level .5
}
