+fn16 produces 24bit png in 3.1g and mega 0.5. Stats says 48bpp. Win95.

K.K.

Hmm, it work just fine for me.

Are you sure you are using a program that supports 16 bit per colour
component PNG images?  I know a few that will read any PNG but convert it to
8 bit per colour component.

You can test if it works by using any scene with 8 and then 16 bit per
colour component and simply compare the file sizes.  Even with compression
the 16 bit per colour component image will be larger.

I use +fn16 for 16 Bit heightfields (hf_gray_16) and it works (at least with
megapov)

You should know better and not post binary attachments to a non-binaries
group.

That would be a Photoshop problem...

Oh? And what do you call the data string in your sig? ;)

Source.  Certainly not a binary, at least not in the technical sense.

Then again, I don't think it's entirely proper to post PPM files to text
groups. ;-)

His signature is two lines of somewhat human-readable text, in the 
message and not as an attachment, written in a programming language (C), 
and generated by a human. The image was a ~50KB JPEG image file 
attachment. There is a big difference.

Messages with file attachments(including attachments of text files) go 
in one of the binary groups, only post text messages to text groups.

Is there _any_ app that can open pov 48bit output and save as uncompressed
tif or raw? I guess there isn't raw output option for advanced users because
advanced users just patch it in if they need it :). I'm not going to patch yet.

K.K.

I think ImageMagick and/or the GIMP can do it. Both are for Unix but
there are Windows ports and I think there are ports to other popular
OSs.
