New user to PovRay and Moray, I try finding out how to make Moray read .POV
POVRay files, and how to make PovRay import .MDL Moray files...

I also tried to use 3DWin, which talks about 'POVRay Binary files' or such
things, but I'm still stuck..

Could you help me ?

thanks a lot..

AFAIK Moray can't read .pov files at all nor Povray can't import .mdl
files.
But Moray exports to .pov, which in turn of course can be read by
povray. ;-)

There is a POV-Ray to Moray conversion utility by the author of the
3Dwin converter, although only for older versions. URL:

 http://www.stmuc.com/thbaier/pv2mr217.zip

Check up on the *.pob format at:

 http://www.stmuc.com/thbaier/pob_sdk.html

however I doubt this would be useful to you (never know though!)

Choose Render>Export from Moray's Menu. This will create a .pov and .inc
file in the directory you have selected in the Render Options dialog
("directory for POV files", moray\povscn\ by default).
