impossible...

Yes, I use it! It works fine, although with a iritating bug: sometimes it makes
Moray crash, and after starting the program again, I cannot render the scene: in
the POV-ray file the material has been corrupted, although in the mdl file
nothing is visible.
Incidentally, I use the spline in a very complex object: a 17th century sailing
ship of the VOC. When finished (which will be soon...) I shall upload that to
the Moray website.
Cheers!!
Thomas

Me? No! I was just answering Mike's question. It was Psychomek who
complained about having problems in RL ;-)

Hi Mike!
Your Plug-In is very useful. What I am missing ist a CTDS-like spline.
CTDS means 'connect the dots'. The spheres on the path of the spline are
connected by cylinders. This gives quite smooth splines and you don't
have to use hundreds or thousands of spheres. Just an Idea.
BTW the Plugin is not 100% stable but I couldn't figure out the
circumstances that make it crash yet.

Hello Mike,
Your plugin is wonderful but (there is always a but):
1) in Moray, if you try to make a copy (not a reference), Moray
Crash (on Win 98 and Win NT).
2) When you use triangle or smooth triangle as primitive, you use
merge for the triangle. It is REALLY better to change merge by mesh
povray will render really faster (between 1.5 and 3 times faster).
It would be nice if you could correct this.
Fabian.
