render time just over 8 hours inc parse, modelled in rhino, scene laid out
in moray, mangled by hand.....

mega pov defiantly does not like shorthand translations and rotations!

eg
rotate -27.0*z

as outputted by moray works fine in mega pov until you put the version line
in, and it chokes. (error is expected } but found * instead)

after manually altering all the rotations and translations, I discover that
the camera is now not pointing in the exact same direction as before, gave
up and moved the bottle a bit closer, so the final render is not exactly the
view I was aiming for, but don't the photons look pretty (grr)

I am not a pov coder, that's the reason I use moray. I only wish either
moray
would not use shorthand, or megapov would not choke on it (only in mega pov
mode I might add)
