I just came accross this excellent 3d Animation package "blender"
www.blender.nl . I am practising on its NURBS feature and would like to know
what is the best way to export the model to povray. Does anyone has
experience with it?

I have no experience with it but there are a couple of people who
regularly visit comp.graphics.rendering.raytracing and use both
programs. If you don't get the info you need here try reposting
your question there.

There are Python export-to-povray scripts written by a Blender developer
(Jan Walter).
You can find them on http://www.janw.gothere.uk.com/. There is other info
there too
You will need to have python installed plus a mySql server. Details should
be on the page.

The way I did last time worked very well
for my needs :
first of all, your model should be converted
into meshes, with the "alt+C" blend command.
Then, save your blender file in to a DXF file, and
import it into "3d Win file converter"... and
export it to POV !!
...I think you can even get differente layers
conversion.... But I am not quiet sure.
Have a good day, Alex
p.s. Congratulation, your discovered somethig great.(the blender softwa
re)
I did the same 3 weeks ago ! There will have a "showcase" on
the Blender-site, take a look at blender.nl
