Thanks for that--my first introduction to df3 files.  Fascinating! I downloaded
the stuff and ran his makecloud1_demo file as-is, using his media parameters
(intervals 3, with method and samples left out.) But I didn't see anything odd
in that particular scene. I then changed his media to intervals 1 method 3
samples 1, and upped the cloud count--LOTS of overlapping boxes--just to really
wring it out!  Still no problems--which I found quite amazing,
actually. I *did* notice that he had max_trace_level set at 256. (Wow!)

Is there a particular demo that's causing problems for you?
