Hi.

Are there alternates for the crand function? The POV-docu says, that this 
function is not very recommended. But what else to use, to create a rough 
surface?

My intention is to create a floor similar to those floors on sport places, 
that rough rust red rubber-alike floor cover.

Thanks,

Sven

Crand, indeed, is not recommended, especially for animations, and imo it 
doesn't look realy right.
I would try a very fine granite normal, associated, for example, to the sand 
texture in isocacti.pov (one of the standard POV-Ray scenes). And then play 
with the bump_size and other parameters to get it right.
