Crashes here, too. But if you set spacing to 0.0115 (or higher - 0.011
crashes as well) works. /wild guess/ Perhaps some overflow at 128k photons
(this number seems to be reached at 0.011)? /wild guess/

Pov crashes too if you replace "spacing 0.01" by "count 130000".

Oh and Window reports a "Stapelfehler" (=stack error/overflow???) at
015f:00477df0.

Please don't post povray files in binary-encoded format, but just as raw
text.

  (Yes, I know that some braindead news readers do this without even warning
the user or showing that it is doing that. I think that opening the povray
file in an editor (eg. POV-Ray itself) and then copy-pasteing into the
newsreader editor works as it should.)

There is a difference between pasting a raw ascii text file in a
message and attaching it as an uuencoded file. In the second case, it
has to be decoded before it is read plus it can not be viewed directly
with the message describing it.
