Dear All,
Can any of you advise me as to how I get rendered files out of Pov
Ray into a decent format i.e. Targa/Tiff? I've made some progress, but
the instructions are really confusing me. If you could explain what to
do in detail I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Adam

ok as detailed as you'll ever need:
code your scene (i am assuming you have done this), then click the little
render button. sit back and wait. patients wears out...., done. depending on
what version, what OS you can look in the folder you saved you pov file in
and find a tga,bmp (system specific) file

Hi Adam,
You need to use the switch +FT ( add it to your \renderer\povray.ini
file ).
This will cause POV to output .tga files.
See Output_File_Options in the documentation for more info.
Regards,
Andy C.

I have always thought that this is the default and that you don't have
to specify it.
And anyways, +FC is better.

It's no longer the default on the Windows platform. The default on that
platform is sys, or BMP. But yes, +FC is probably better, unless you have
a big hard drive and a slow computer. (For the benefit of the newusers,
+FT specifies uncompressed Targa format, and +FC specifies compressed
Targa format.)

Here's a heads-up... for some silly reason my Corel Photo-Paint 7 chokes on
POV-generated compressed targas. So in my case, the uncompressed format is
better. Your mileage may vary.
