I have just downloaded Liquid Spray plugin for Moray, and when I render the
scene (with lights and a camera, I wouldn't forget those:-), I see nothing.
The following fields are set:

Transformation:  1,1,1
Rotate:  0,0,0
Translate:  0,0,0

Strength:  11.0

Gravity:  9.5

Count:  200
Life:  1.8
Size:  0.5
Stretch:  3.0
Distance:  2.0
Evaporate:  0.0

Spray Loop:  NOT SELECTED (I just want a still picture)

Nozzle spin:  33
Nozzle Angle:  80
Nozzle Width:  2

Neither Blob option is selected, although I have also tried various combo's,
to no avail

Use Ground Plane:  NOT SELECTED

Turbulence Options:

Spray:  .1
Scale:  0.0
Velocity:  0.0
Angle:  0.0
Spin:  0.0
Wind:  0.0
Spray Seed:  0.0

Flow Rate:  1.0

Time Scale:  1.0

Direction:  0,0,1
Wind Dir:  0,0,0

Use Material Texture:  CHECKED

I have a material texture called RED, which is just a solid red pigment,
nothing fancy.  When POV-Ray renders this, it says there are 0 frame-level
objects and 0 infinite objects.  What am I doing wrong?  Help?  Thanks, and
please email me answers if you could.

Hi John!
I'm not shure, but I think you've got to set the "Spray Loop" to TRUE.
If you don't, the spray include file thinks that it has to generate an
animation with a spray object with increasing strength in time. Since
the clock value is zero the spray does not appear. Setting the "Spray
Loop" to TRUE will generate a spray oject with full strength over all
frames even if the clock value is zero.
