I once heard that many people want
a CD texture suitable for animation.
I tried to make one, and I posted it in
povray.text.scene-files.
It is not finished solution, so if you
have improvements, please post them
here (or there).
Let me hear what you think.

Amazing!
I havn't figured it out yet, but I'm sold.
The next problem is how to get sound out of POV-Ray.

When I'm doing a particuraly difficult piece of
coding in Pov my wife hears all kinds of sounds
coming from me running the program :)

How old are you Ken? I'm just interested in the age groups using POV-Ray.
Are there many "young" people out there using it??? It seems most of the
POVers are older...
Come on everyone, lets have a show of hands... (and ages :)
If you don't want to, it's fine with me, I'm just curious.

Oh yeah, that's right, I also wanted to say I've had a few good results in
the past using reflection mapping in MAX with a frozen UVW mapper... Could
this be done with POV-Ray??? They have to be inversely normalised to the
lights in the scene...

I'm 20. What do you mean by "older"? Like "elderly citizens"? :P
I'll probably look like one before this year-end madness is over & I finally
get some sleep... (sigh)

From the replies to this thread I can safely say I'm ancient
and if all of you think you feel old now just wait 20 years.
I was graduating high school when most of you were still wearing
diapers and your moms were wiping drool from your faces.

20 yrs. here. I feel young still, but I always seem to want to be 3
years older, no matter how old I have been.
oops, personal issues... .. . . .

I'm 20 as well... seems to be a popular age... So if we are all normally
distributed random ages around....oops, sorry, it's my damn probability
class coming out again.. it keeps doing that.

I'm 18. I learned about POV through a cool math teacher a few years ago, and
he got some other students into it, one of whom regularly uses it for
projects, including some very cool animated credits to a movie project at the
end of this semester...

Most of the maths teachers I know couldn't turn a computer on!!! he he he
OK, I guess I better say how old I am right? OK, well, I'm 15 and 9 months
(oh ah, getting accurate here :)
Most of my friends are older than I am though, because I was in year 10 this
year but I was in a year 12 Commercial Art and Design class... long story...
It's good to see that "younger" people are getting involved with POV-Ray
though. Oh no, here I go again, "younger"...
Actually, speaking of credits and movie projects for school, I just finished
a 5 min long animation project for my school's Year 10 Speech and Drama
Extravaganza, it wasn't done in POV-Ray though (I had to get it done in 3
weeks...). It was finally projected with a hi-res video projector onto
stage dividers, so it was full movie size. I did the final breakdown,
modelling and rendering in MAX. Even then it still wasn't as fast as I'd
hoped when it came to rendering, especially when it was interupted by a
lightning strike in the middle... twice... I REALLY need to get an
uninteruptable power supply!!! The final file size was 1 Gb without music.
It had a hard time playing it back, but I eventually got it to work
properly. It was still rendering 2 hours before it had to be presented!!!
I was really getting anxious over that one... But, it did make a lasting
impression on everyone, and of course I got an A+ for the whole presentation
and all segments!!!
Oh, by the way, it was to Zombie, by the Cranberries. It was an animated
prelude to the night and was about violence in society (as the song
suggests).
If the hard drive died or the projector element burnt out, I would have been
devastated to say the least :)

Oh dear, Confession time!
In '93 when I first picked up Craig Lindley's book on Ray Tracing
(with DKB Trace on the disk) I was a sprightly 60 year old.
Now, having learned a great deal from the combined wisdom of this
newsgroup, I feel much younger. I wonder how many other wrinklies are
out there reading, but not contributing?
Keep up the good work you guys and every seasonal good wish to all
from Scotland.

What is it about statistics, anyway?! I studied it last year and
actually considered making POV plugins for all the distribution types!
Damned if I know what use that would have been...

Actually, I was frightened when I realized that the atmospheric
distributions are actually statistically random distributions that I
recognized from class (not the same names, but the same distributions)
Actually you could get some interesting procedural results that way I
think.

I hereby cast one vote for "38", a very fine age :-)
Not yet a wrinklie, but heading leisurely that way. Unlike my dad who at 40
decided to go in reverse - he's now a teenager! (*Don't let him near a

Ok, after reading all of that and if anyone is still
interested about one month later, I'm 31 and am using
POV-Ray (or DKBTrace, for that matter), since it
exists.
I use it partially for some sophisticated 3D diagrams
(electrical engineer speaking here), partially for
fun ("art" ??? ;-).
