I found out about PovRay almost 20 years ago. I had been using Fractint
for a couple of years and PovRay was mentioned as a renderer that could
use for their *.pot files, a 16-bit file. Just the thing to generate an
animated flythrough over a plasma height field. I thought.
All these years later I have never got round to it.
I need to use a modeller due to a lack of skills in visualisation and
coding. And it has become obvious that Moray which passed its license to
the Persistence of Vision Raytracer Pty. Ltd in 2007, by the deafening
silence whenever I ask how it is going. That it never happen in my
lifetime. The Blender-PovRay addon suffers from a lack of response to
the bug reports I have submitted. So I will need to find another way to
render my images.
Over the next few months it will be: So long and thanks for all the
bananas. I will miss all the friends I have made on the newsgroups. But
most have drifted away or died which doesn’t help.
A special mention to Thomas who actually ran the TC-RTC on his own with
only a little help from me. Thanks Thomas.
At least you all will be spared my attempts at humour in the future. :-)
