     Hey, that's cool - nice scene, and you used fog too!  ;)

       You've done some good work there Marc, and to me, the street 
environment works well. What did you use for the flame in the lamp? (I want 
to put some flames along my bridge, and then have a castle/fort in the 
background, like some Oblivion scenes).

This is cool! It fits very well my imagination of Ankh-Morpok and the mood 
in the image is just right. You only need to place another house next to 
this one and the make the street a cobblestone street or something. Oh, and 
make the house much more worn - this is Ankh-Morpok after all.

Yes fog coming from Ankh river (though I wonder how such a river could emit
fog)

Thank you Rune :-)
I agree about the cobblestoned street... I am just waiting for Captain
Vimes' advice :cp
For the extra house do you mean on the left of this one?
About the houses weariness, I could say that as they were just rebuilt after
the Colour of Magic ending fire but I think you're right and I'll work on
that.
Some litter on the street could be welcome too.
I have a to do list getting rather long LOL

Actually I was thinking on the right side, where there seems to be nothing 
at the moment. What I see on the left side could be an alley.

I can't imagine anything in Ankh-Morpok looking new, even if just rebuilt. 
;)

Indeed! Looking forward to see the progress.

Yes it is... as well as dynamic hair but my character obviously doesn't need

I'm not familiar with the Ankh-Morpok environment, so please excuse me if my
comments make no sense ... ;-)

That iron sign hanging outside the tavern -- it looks a bit "hi tech" to me.
 Like it was cut using some laser-like technology.  Perhaps a rougher,
fatted-shaped, more "hand-made" version would be more in keeping with the
general atmosphere of the scene.

Since the door is such a large element in the scene, it also seems to cry
out for a rougher-hewn, even slightly asymetrical shape. Stronger and
tougher-looking. Like those doors in the old Hammer horror films.
To keep the goblins out!

Great scene!!!

Don’t forget that Ken will need Moray to export them to Pov-Ray script. Also
they are version 3.2 will Moray 3.5 open them?

To be entirely correct: version 3.3 (and higher) :-)

You will also notice that number 3 and 4 are missing. I uploaded them, years 
ago, but Lutz never made them available (booohh...booohh...).
If you are interested however, I can put them in moray.binaries.

It would also be time for me to update them a bit, but as I am very lazy....

That’s a good idea. I have used a couple of you models and have appreciated
them.

I really love this scene. I'd suggest trying ground fog instead of (or as
well as) distance fog - that would give more the impression that it's heavy
acrid fog rolling across the streets from the river Ankh; or that it's
clinging to the heels of the reaper, either of which could be good!

I take note and I'll consider  that though rendering time is getting longer
and longer.
I think a patterned media will not reduce it ;-)

I have a copy of 3.5--though I haven't used  it in a *long* time. Downloaded
it before I started learning to use POV-Ray, but couldn't make any sense of
it at the time. NO fault of MORAY, just my own then-ignorance of POV-Ray.
Not now, of course!  :-P

I thought POSERAY could do the conversion, but I see not. So I'll crank up
MORAY again.  A good idea anyway.

But, seriously, if I can find the time, I shall certainly revisit the

some building aspects are not up to my own standards anymore...

Oh, Moray is a whole different world of experience! :-)
In fact, it is very easy to use, very fast for building rapidly complex 
scenes, and with a treasure trove of nice and useful plugins.

Apart from the three houses available at the Moray objects download site, 
the two missing houses are now available at the moray.binaries ng.

Er... no, that's true. It seems I have several projects running at the same 
time at this moment!! Also the IRTC is craving for attention, and I have 
finally downoladed Poser5, so there is work to do there too...
So Moray will have to wait.
