I don't think so, best solution is to pull the
camera WAAAAAAAY back and then narrow your field
of focus (zoom in) it'll flatten it into a close
to ortho view.  methinks...

  Povray supports orthographic cameras. Don't know about moray.

  And besides, your solution doesn't work if you want, for example, to put
your camera inside a room.

Moray does not support an orthographic camera.

Hi Lutz
So bad...i needed it for my game....
units and terrain and buildings are all
seen through an Ortho Camera...

I guess i will have to export to POVRay and render from there

Think about it for the next version Lutz......please?
Game developers need it so bad :)
