Hi Peter Hertel, you recently wrote in povray.binaries.images:

Yes, the uv mapping for boxes was changed to use environment cube
mapping the way that most 3D packages use it. Doing it this way allows
you to map different parts onto each face, whereas the previous
version placed the same image on all six faces. Now it projects the
image like this (ASCII monospaced art alert!):
1 . . . +-----+ . . . . . .
V . X ^ 4 | X .
. z | .
.6 +-----+--x>-#--z>-+-<x--+
| ^ | | |
| 1 y 5 | 2 | 6 |
| | | | |
.3 +-----O--x>-+-----+-----+
. | | .
. X | 3 | X .
0 . . . +-----+ . . . . . .
0 .25 .5 .75 1
U
The places marked X are ignored.
The effect is that this will allow a seperate part of an
imagemap on each face instead of placing the entire imagemap on each
face.
