Thanks, but the glows really do all the work. Unlike media, radiosity,
photons, and many other POV-Ray features glows are actually *very* *easy* to
work with!
Use a while loop to generate about 100 glows with random locations and
colours, and then multiply the locations by the clock - it's that simple to
make an explosion like this one. Of course I did some adjustments, but
nothing complicated.
Because it's so simple, I see no reason to post the code. Instead, have a
try yourself! :-)

Regular MegaPOV have not caused me many problems, but the current version of
MegaPOV Plus has an extremely annoying memory leak - I had to do the
animations over many small passes.

And there's also some major bugs in the official version that has been fixed
in MegaPOV...

Glows can indeed be used for many things, they are really fast, and really
easy to use.
