It doesn't look like there's actually a file named isocsg.inc in the zip.
(yes, I searched for *.inc)
There _is_ one in the moray zip, but it says it's modified to work with Moray,
not POV-Ray.
Am I missing something?
Does anyone have a copy of the actual isocsg.inc that I can use?

Thanks.

Arg.  OK, I found a copy of isocsg lurking somewhere else on my HDD, but that
doesn't explain why it's missing from the zip.

Now I'm trying to get mechsim to work, and it doesn't like "mechsim {...}" as a
directive in the global settings.

Does anyone have experience with this?

mechsim was an experimental feature that is only available in MegaPOV
(note that this does not contain any of the new POV-Ray 3.7 features).

I guess I'm missing something then, because it all seems to refer to POV-Ray,
with only one small mention of Moray.

I'm good using 3.6 for now.  Heck, I think the last version I used might have
been 3.1... !

you might check out Koppi's bullet physics playground.

https://github.com/koppi/bullet-physics-playground

You'll have to build it from sources, but it does awesome things:

Though I'm having a terrible time getting it to build.  Some things that aren't
available through apt-get or synaptic.

libassimp-dev depends on libassimp2 depends on libstdc++6 (which aptitude says I
have installed, though Archive Manager says it's not)

I had to download .deb packages of the other two, but they won't install...

Shame, really.  It looks like it would be fun to play with.

Hope you have better luck than I did.

Regards,
A.D.B.

It should all be here I suppose: http://www.imagico.de/pov/ic/index.php

I am puzzled. Why not jump to 3.7? There really is no reason not to imho.

I don't remember for sure, but you're running opensuse correct?

I've heard much about it, and looked at it briefly.
I'm stuck on a windows laptop, so I'm not super eager to "build" anything at the
moment.  But eventually.
