Hello all of you,

I am new to POV-Ray, but did some programming in VRML. I now want to
convert a VRML world into POV-Ray (because I want to get shadow casting,
which seems not possible with VRML).
I have the program vrml2pov, but I need to get animations also in the
POV-world. In VRML I used to use JavaScript; can I re-use some of the
code for the POV-world?

Thanks for your help and if you can provide a few examples or URL's for
this newbie, that would be great.

All the best,


Victor

  You can probably re-write your animation code with POV-Ray script (as
it's quite versatile), but if you don't know anything about POV-Ray's
scripting language, then you will need to learn a bit of it.
  The official documentation is a great source of information.
