a test of mesh2 with pov3.5b2, with a model from
http://www-graphics.stanford.edu/data/3Dscanrep/
543.652 vertex & 1.087.716 faces (no normal, no uv mapping)
it gives a 45 MB ascii file for the mesh2 ..
rendered at 600x600 +A0.1 on an athlon 900MHz 256MB
parse : 77 s
render : 18 s (yes, it takes longer to parse than to render ! :)
memory peak : 200 MB (it seems quite a lot even for such a large mesh no ?)

That is very cool. I'm still trying to figure out how to use Mesh2 to my
advantage.

Ah, the happy Buddah, first 3D object to be "faxed". Tell me... Did you do
this all in one pass or did you do 4 renders? Second, did you parse the mesh
4 times for each position or did you just declare it once and tranform and
copy it 4 times?

Which mesh did you download?

i render this in one pass, using a macro that center/scale an object an
render 4 views of it (using light_group, an orthographic camera, min &
max_extent, text object etc..). i will post the macro to p.b.s-f
The mesh is declared and then transformed for each view
the script is
#include "views.inc"
#declare buddha=object {#include "models\buddha.inc" pigment {color rgb
<.8,.6,.2>} finish {ambient .2 diffuse .8 specular .8 } }
Views(buddha,"back","left","right","front",yes,no,0)

happy_recon.tar.gz
it s an ascii file with list of vertex and faces, quite easy to transform
into mesh2 format

Looks very nice. I'm not very familiar with the mesh2 format. Could you
possible explain
how you did the conversion?
