It depends on how you are doing the animation -- if you are using the clock
value and splines and such, you can just use a single .pov file and set
values in your povray.ini. However, if you are not using POV-ray's animation
facilities, you will have to either output a seperate .pov file for each
frame, or generate your .pov files using a programming language (PERL works
particularly well for this). I don't use Moray, though, so I don't know the
details on how Moray animates. If Moray creates splines that use the clock
value, you're golden.

Anybody here a Moray guru?
