Going back to my old projects. This is an intermediary take. I started
working on the surroundings. The new floor is nice (I think!) but with the
libraries (Gilles Tran's MakeLibrary), the rooms needs a wooden floor I
think, and wainscots.
Hesitating about a window (invisible, left) or artificial lighting (my
preference).
Need lots of scrolls too.
As always, comments very appreciated!
To PM 2Ring: I posted the missing and corrected files in p.b.s-f. (hope all
is complete!)

Maybe one of Kepler's own pentagonal tilings... would they look good as
parquetry?

I don't like the placement of the near bookcase, especially how it obscures
the portrait. How about moving the back wall back another two metres or so,
to create a corridor going off to our right? Then you could have the two
bookcases side by side, with one of them disappearing onto the corridor. I
think this would also look good with lighting from the left.

I think the room still works without fancy scrollwork.

Thanks, Thomas. I'll check them in the morning.

I suppose so. I shall try to find an example on Google.

Funny how perceptions can be different from person to person! My wife
preferred the portrait half hidden.
I have moved the far bookcase to the left now. However, I shall take your
suggestion and move the backwall back (maybe also the right wall). In any
case the camera view was too crowded as is. A corridor to the right... or
maybe to the back.... I shall experiment. I have also a portrait of Tycho
Brahe that I want to put somewhere...

Sure. Just a few rolled-up things on top of the bookcase (starts to look
like my study! ;-) )

I hope everything is complete. If not, tell me!
Thanks for your comments. Much appreciated!

Hi Thomas. Still no luck. The pieces for the Solar System model seem to be
in the files supplied. :( I spent over 30 minutes on it, but I don't think
I have all the parts. At least I get a floor & a sunglow now.

I am really sorry because I think that the fault is mine!! It is because in
Moray, you can switch on or off different elements for testing and I
probably did not switch everything on. And when off, they are not translated
to POV-Ray.
OK, I shall do it again and control the whole process. Stay tuned!

Aha! Now it all makes sense. (FWIW, I've never looked at Moray.)

I shall! Is it possible to remove the full pathnames and just use relative
filenames? I don't have a directory called C:\Mijn documenten\Mijn
Work-In-Progress\Mijn Teksten\Kabeljauw Kronieken\Illustraties\
:)

Oh yes! You can delete everything you want there (I am a freak when it comes
to archiving!)
What I shall do is this: I shall put in p.b.s-f a scene file with only the
Kepler model. You can then include it into the main scene file (first
comment out the camera, lights etc). I think that would be easiest.
My scene has become so complex now (see Take 5) that it becomes difficult to
edit the POV-Ray files generated by Moray. They are not ment to be edited
this way, but only through Moray (which is much simpler)
