When using Create_Ini, the ini that is created uses
subset-framing, reaching from subset_start_frame 1
to subset_end_frame 1, thus, I only get one frame
of any animation.
In order to see if this was due to Create_Ini, which
was also handed to the ini created as being "on" (which
it was to be created in the first place), and if this being
"on" overwrote the ini every time and thus some error
was caused... Well, setting it to "" (off) didn't change a
thing, the ini will only render one frame, the first.
When deleting the values for the subset-commands,
POV will run the ini correctly and trace my animation.
(Not the entire command, just leaving the
"Subset_Start_Frame=", no number anymore)
Could anyone clarify the actual use of motives of this?
Perhaps Create_Ini was made with stills in mind, but
then it might be useful to note this in the docs. Also,
nowhere are the default values for subset-frames noted,
this could be a nice addition in case one is looking on how
to disable subset-frames...
Thanks in advance,
Tim

I must have skipped over this when posted, I read it a couple days ago and
remembered to check it out for myself yesterday (then lost 'net access).
I would have to agree that it apparently doesn't work right for animations.
Looking through the source code I couldn't tell where it would need a change
(optin.cpp, povmsend.cpp, etc.) since I don't understand the programming,
were that deemed to be an appropriate change anyway.
Got to wondering if it has to do with percentage rather than integer numbers
for a float, i.e. 1=100%, and thus some mixup someplace concerning that but
it wouldn't matter. They would need to be set as Subset_Start_Frame=0 and
Subset_End_Frame=1 if that were to be done instead. Leaving them blank if
not used originally seems the answer, like you had done.
Always possible this was an oversight I guess, hate to just speculate on it
myself. Maybe someone knows about that part of the program will see this and
can offer explanations.
