100% agree. That's one of the reasons I typically do only HDR output these days.
Did I mention that I like MegaPOV? :)

In the latest beta I keep getting this error:
"Parse Warning: assumed_gamma is not supported in POV-Ray v3.7 and later SDL.
For compatibility purposes an assumed_gamma of 1.0 is taken to
mean gamma correction is on (which is also now the default setting). If you will
not be using this scene with older versions of POV-Ray it
is safe to remove the assumed_gamma statement. See the documentation for more
information regarding this change."
Where is the current methodology documented? I checked the help file and the
section on assumed_gamma seems to not have been changed.

It's a beta, so people using it are expected to read the release notes, readme
files and other stuff nobody would usually bother to read for a final release.
The documentation is in beta-stage as well, meaning it needs work, too.
(Although to me it actually seems closer to 3.6 gamma still than anything
else... I guess the PoV-ray developers are mainly programmers after all, so
end-user documentation will be the last thing on their to-do lists.)

OK, thanks.
