Specifically scenes\advanced\blocks\*.pov
Win98SE, Athlon 1.33Ghz, 512Mb ECC DDR.

I've tried a few times to render the three scenes in the above dorectory, 
and I get various error messages from within makestacks.inc.

For example, with #declare writefile=false commented out and 
#declare num=10 uncommented, I get the following error :

File: makestacks.inc  Line: 191
            #if (Visible)

                #declare 
R[0]=<int(rand(R2R)*4)*90,0,int(rand(R2R)*4)*90>; <----ERROR

Parse Error: Attempted to redefine float identifier as vector identifier.


Returned from renderer with error status

Has anybody else out there run into problems with this sample scene?  And 
please bear in mind that I use Moray as a rule, so I'm not too good with 
raw SDL code and may easily be missing something which is blindingly to 
somebody else.

Bye for now,
     Jamie.

Strange. Anyway, a fixed version is available in beta-test.binaries, with
another demo file of the series (stackerday.pov) that was overlooked in the
current distribution.

stackerday.pov seems to generate a rather pretty completely black image 
in ten seconds on my machine...

Never mind.  I'm just being dim...  As usual.  :)

Thanks anyway for the updated files.

Bye for now,
     Jamie.
