Yup, that's the name of a counter-strike gaming community
(in Swedish WhiskyHornan), to wich I made this short
intro/splasher/thingy.

Some after effects added; text, fading and animated scene change.
The rest is pure Pov-Ray. Please have a look! =)

Looks sweet :)

Nitpick : there's a little flickering in the necks of the bottles

Yeah, I noticed that too. Probably would have been less of it with more
AA... but I dare not think of what the render time would have been then...

Looks more like a coincident surface problem... (Given that there's 
absolutely nothing to be refracted that could be generating so much 
noise!) Does the liquid inside the bottle "touch" the bottle itself?

Media Player 10 doesn't find the video codec for some reason.  What
codec did you use?  Maybe I can install it manually...

Thanks,


Kyle

Umm.. the liquid MAY be touching the bottle... perhaps. But it's just a
cylinder so I could just slightly decrease its radius. But would making the
whole bottle a union also remove it? :?

How odd! I used a standard Mpeg-2, (if there is such a thing).
Tried VLC media player? I can recommend it, anyway! =)

No, making it a union will have no effect. (Merge might - but that's 
usually *lots* slower.)

Try leaving a tiny gap between liquid and bottle and see if that fixes 
the problem. (If it does, will probably render a fair bit faster too.)

	There is, but windows doesn't support it (or any kind of MPEG2)
unless you have a DVD drive and the codec came with its drivers...
If you want maximum compatibility, use MPEG1. Otherwise, DivX (or
similar, like XviD) will give you better compatibility than MPEG2
with better quality to boot.

I downloaded SLD Codec Pack version 2.2 and it apparently had the
correct codec.  I was able to view the video.  Pretty cool.

I've not seen knives or ammo that were that shiny.  Usually the finish 
has been dulled by surface corrosion.  Something with specular 
highlighting would be more realistic.

Otherwise, pretty good.

John
