I read Dearmad's post about this newsgroupd going a bit quiet, so I thought I'd
post something I've been working on.

I've been playing with Megapov, trying out some of it's nice features. This is
an experiment in persistent variables and motion blur. I know there's a few bugs
in the physics, but I still think it looks cool :)

that was pretty neat.  How was it on render times?

That is really very catching: I couldn't see anything that didn't agree 
with reality!

Very cool!

Now give the balls patterned textures! :D

Colliding balls always remind me of my old PushBall game...

That's the radiosity, I'm just using the default settings to keep the render
time low. I think it makes it look like it's shot on old film ;)

Thanks :)

Surprisingly good actually. That one was about 1.5 hrs, but I can make it a lot
faster by lowering the quality of the motion blur.

I've wanted to attempt something like this myself, but didn't know how. Is
there any chance I could see your code?
