time spent well, looking at the follow-up :-), I hope to get a little "play
time" for these tonight.  thanking both you and Gio.

all works nice under beta.2, again, thank you both.  but..  </grin>

I tried the code with WFP's yuqk branch/fork and got problems.

Gio's code takes advantage of "lax parsing" (in the POV-Rays) where WFP has
"tightened up" the parser, ie 'reflection'.

Maetes cleaned that up, but his code hits a problem in another area, "fog",
aptly enough :-).  I think (from the documentation) that is a "work in progress"
area in yuqk, and so may be of interest to the author too.

I've pasted the respective error messages below.

jp, I'm disappointed.
As an advanced povrayer, you should be able to find and delete the fog part:)

I've done it for you.
Below a new zip with littlebit more test, but it has also become very messy.

Among other things, I have made the various meshes hideable so that various
parts can be identified. Unfortunately, the wheels are spread over 3 different
meshes and mixed with others parts :(

Have fun,
M

PS:
Where is the next car?

Thanks to all!
Also thanks for the experiments done on the file I originally posted which can
also help us in future versions after 3.7
It is appreciated to intervene with modifications, also because I dedicate
myself mainly to meshes and volumes.
The next car is coming, but first, for a matter of my order, I post the worker
who owns the first car LOL
I hope is right in English "delivery man" :)
This is also the first version I'm working on using smooth, which is not ready
yet.
I think it works well but I would like to find a way to adjust its effect based
on the consistency of the surfaces.
It's a simple mesh anyway, but already suitable for not too close shots
BR!

NB 3 files, the "main", the include, and a fast png preview

thanks, hope (aim !) to get a look at the update in the coming days.

re typo, looks like I did alright, had it gone "the other way", I'd have been
reduced to a mere file extension.  </grin>

cheers, will try and keep an eye "on developments".

Need a few more hours.

I think that's the 'fog_type' keyword becoming 'type'; Part of yuqk's 
effort to reign in feature specific keywords as I think v4.0 should too.

And, pretty much everything in the yuqk fork is a work in progress! :-)

And once again I couldn't stop.

I hope it didn't get too complicated, but at some point I wanted to know how far
I could push it.

It was kind of exciting to do something different than just my space stuff.

Although I would have to do at least a dozen far more important things :)
