Hi, I am starting to study povray at university and I am playing around
with a simple animation. What I want is a cube made up of 6 polygon
objects with verious textures applied to each. The cube is centered around
0,0,0 and all I want to do is rotate the cube around an axis from the top
left back corner to the bottom right front corner i.e. the cube rotates
diagnaly round ( excuse the spelling). I have generated the following code
but cannot get my head around the rotation. Is it possible the define a
new axis other than x y z and rotate the object around it?
//First animation
#include "colors.inc"
#include "textures.inc"
global_settings {
assumed_gamma 1.0
}
camera {
location <0, 0, -8 >
look_at <0, 0, 0>
}
light_source {
<0, 2, -8> White
}
plane { y, -6
texture {
pigment { checker color White color Green }
}
}
sphere {
<0, 0, 0> 1
pigment { White}
}
union {
polygon { // side left
5,
<-1, -1, 1>,
<-1, 1, 1>,
<-1, 1, -1>,
<-1, -1, -1>,
<-1, -1, 1>
texture {
pigment {
image_map { gif "yoda3.gif"}
rotate y*90
}
}
}
polygon { // side right
5,
<1, -1, 1>,
<1, 1, 1>,
<1, 1, -1>,
<1, -1, -1>,
<1, -1, 1>
texture {Jade }
}
polygon { // side front
5,
<-1, -1, -1>,
<-1, 1, -1>,
<1, 1, -1>,
<1, -1, -1>,
<-1, -1, -1>
texture {
pigment {
image_map { gif "yoda3.gif"}
}
}
}
polygon { // side back
5,
<-1, -1, 1>,
<-1, 1, 1>,
<1, 1, 1>,
<1, -1, 1>,
<-1, -1, 1>
pigment{ rgbf <1,0,1,0.75> }
}
polygon { // top
5,
<-1, 1, -1>,
<1, 1, -1>,
<1, 1, 1>,
<-1, 1, 1>,
<-1, 1, -1>
texture {
pigment { Blue }
normal {dents 1.5 scale 0.2}
finish { phong 1}
}
}
polygon { // bottom
5,
<-1, -1, -1>,
<1, -1, -1>,
<1, -1, 1>,
<-1, -1, 1>,
<-1, -1, -1>
pigment {
gradient x
color_map {
[0.5 color Red]
[0.3 color Yellow]
[0.5 color Blue]
}
}
}
//rotate y*clock*10
//rotate z*clock*5
//rotate x*clock*5
}
Hope you can understand what Im asking and help
Cheers
