Hi

I'am currently working on a scene with a smooth heightfield. At certain 
camera positions the heightfield becomes false shadows which are changing 
by moving the camera.

The anim (mpeg): http://cfjh.no-ip.info/povray/hf_bug/test.mpg

source is here: http://cfjh.no-ip.info/povray/hf_bug/hf_bug.zip

Problem occures with Povray 3.5, Linux (Suse 8.1), not with 3.1, Linux

Try double_illuminate in your object definition.

So long,

Thx,
but does not help, the effects are lesser, but still visible.
