Hi Chris,

I just thought I'd share my first results of using your rope macro. Attached is
an image with the result. To create the hanging loops I created a small macro
of my own. I still need to clean it up a bit and make it a bit more general,
but then I'll share it.

I still have a problem with showing the fibers. When I turn this on, rendering
slows down to a crawl, and the results look pretty bad. Basically, the rope
becomes all black. I could be that I am doing something wrong, or that the
version of MegaPov I am using is not compatible with your macros. I still need
to investigate what's wrong. However, there's no rush, cause in my scene there's
no need to show the fibers anyway.

Cheers,

Erwin
