Xplo,

I am going to give that a try.  I would like to learn how to effectively use
radiosity.  I will dig through the documentation and the posts here.

I want to rework the scene a bit (well, replace the walls and floors
mainly... I have a few other ideas I would like to try too)

Fabian,

When I get home tonight I will post the code.  I want to do a little clean
up on it; it's pretty ugly right now.

Fabian,

The code is in p.b.s.  Hopefully it's useful.

When I get images I like, I will pry post them (of course, the only ones I
like are the ones I am working on right now <g>).

btw, I took a look at the GenOrb page.  Some people I know around here and I
have been working on a similiar project (vrtog).  The primary goal is
developing and IDE for adventure games.  A lot of the class structure for
the IDE is place, but there is a long way to go.

I downloaded the image a while ago from a web site of another
POV-Ray user. He has an extensive collection of "art" images
and at one time a section on Egypt (don't know if it is still
available). Many of the works in his collection are from scans
of various books so I can't say with any certainty the origin
of this image.

This is the link to Stevens site - http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~pigeon/
