HI,

is there a way to use other versions of Povray. ( Like Megapov : Supports
Lens Effect, GlowLigths ...)
The Problem I have is, I need to add additional Text in the Header of the
Povray File. I can do this manually with an Editor,
but in this case I can write the whole Scene in the Editor!
I schould also be able to manipulate the Code generated for a object
(MegaPov support GlowLigths)

I think I understand exactly what you mean.  First of all you can render
your normal Moray Scene with MegaPOV instead of POV-Ray by changing the
binary used by going into the Render Options (where you set the resolution
etc) and near the bottom selecting megapov.exe (I think) instead of
pvengine.exe.  Most of the new features can't be used but you can take
advantage of the improved media and radiosity as well as use the Glow
Plugin.  For any other features you really want to export the POV File
(Alt-F9) and manually edit the code, and render in MegaPOV.

Hope that helps
