Yes, (n/t) means "no text" - the headline was meant to say it all!
As I'm an absolute newbie to the Object Collection, I probably uploaded
the version under a wrong name, so that you can't find it - I simply
entered "Flags" in the "Name" line, if that may help you...
See you in Khyberspace!

The name "Flags" should be right and it should have asked for a new version
number.
However, I don't see it under that or any other name. The last submission I
see was a new one from a couple of days ago.
Did you get something like the screen shot attached, confirming that the
upload had worked?

I tried it once more, and now I got the confirming screen!

High!
But now another problem occurs: as I tried to compose the texture of the
Afghan flag as a layered texture consisting of a simple three-column
pattern (lower layer) and an object pattern generated from a vectorized
bitmap made with Inkscape, I got the message:
Illegal texture or patch in clip, bound or object pattern.
Here is the definition of the "AfghanFlag" macro:
#macro Flags_AfghanFlag()
Flags_ThreeColumnFlag(0, <191, 0, 0>/255, <0, 0.6, 0>)
// Layered texture, coat of arms object-patterned texture yet to be
// added!
texture
{
pigment
{
object
{
object { Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms }
scale 0.01
color rgbft 1
color rgbft <1, 1, 1, 0, 0>
}
}
}
#end
What went wrong? I also submitted the file Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms.inc
containing the definition of Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms to the Object
Collection, so you can look it up...
See you in Khyberspace!

POV-Ray does not allow for a textured object to be used itself in an
object-pattern. It must be "naked", so to speak.
I guess this is intended to avoid people having wrong expectations about what
the object pattern does.
BTW, instead of
> object

> color rgbft <1, 1, 1, 0, 0>
> }
you can just as well write
object { Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms
scale 0.01
color rgbft 1
color rgbft <1, 1, 1, 0, 0>
}

I removed the textures from the inc file, now the render runs... but
although I defined a white pigment for the object pattern, it does not
show up at all! The only way I can tell from is the slowing down of the
render...
See you in Khyberspace!

Congratulations :o)
Now that it's there I can see a few reasons it might have given you problems
with the upload:
When you download from the object collection it generates some files that
you don't need to upload (a readme, a little script and a copyright logo).
Basically anything that isn't prefixed with the object name you don't need
to upload.
To make it 'standards compliant' you mostly just need to prefix everything
with the object name. So I've prefixed the new include file and all the
variables contained within it. With files generated from Inkscape this only
needs two simple global changes, AllShapes to Flags_AllShapes and path to
Flags_path.
I've also added the same 'Flags_' prefix to the new image files and changed
all references to file names to lowercase. The server changes the file names
to lowercase automatically, so any references to files from within other
files need to be in lowercase.
I've made those minor changes and marked it as fully compliant (3).
I hope these trials and tribulations didn't put you off. The flags you've
done are excellent.
Best Regards,
Chris B.

> 3. Spain
> 4. Switzerland
The Spanish flag doesn't look quite right. The middle yellow stripe should
be twice as wide as the red stripes. The image looks like 1.5 times only.
The proportions of the Swiss flag's cross don't look exactly right either.
According to Wikipedia ("Flag of Switzerland") the cross's arms should be
"a sixth longer than their width", and "a relation of 2:3 or 7:10 to the
span of the flag is usual".

They were just meant als provisional... currently I'm working on Chris
Bartlett's Flags.inc, thoroughly revising these preliminary drafts!
See you in Khyberspace!
