Hey,

No, MegaPov media. I tried both type 2 and type 3, but the quality of each
in this scene seemed the same, and there was no apparent change in render
time - I stopped each run after 20 hours, and both were only about half way.
Interestingly, both types introduced strange speckles in the clouds (I
didn't try type 1), not like poorly sampled media, but just random lingle
specks here and there.
