Innovative, as Bill Gates might say.  Seems the ship is getting obscured a lot,
shouldn't it be more visible?  Other than that this is great.

| Hi all,
|
| I've been working on an idea to give my various spaceships "shields" via a
| shield macro. You should find three attachments:
|
| 1) Shield_off.jpg - the test object without shield.
|
| 2) Shield_on.jpg - the test object with shield. (In this example the shield
| is filled with emission/absorption media with values to enhance the
| visibility of the edges.)
|
| 3) shield.zip - zipped copy of shield.pov
|
| The macro relies on the trace() function in MegaPov, the Shield_on.jpg
| example uses the solid mesh capabilities of MegaPov to fill the generated
| mesh with media.
|
| Justin
