Hello!
I want to make an animation with different objects- and
camera-positions. Whats the best way to test siglne pictures out of the
animation? Okay, you could edit povray.ini and then redeclare the
animation-variables:
Initial_Frame = 10
Final_Frame = 10
Initial_Clock = 0.5
Final_Clock = 0.5
Is there a more comfortable way to do this?
Martin

... maybe use the commandline-switch "+k" ....
after this you can specify the clockvalue ...
that's how I do it ...

I either use a custom ini file which has:
Subset_Start_Frame=10
Subset_End_Frame=10
along with the usual stuff and leave it in the editor while I make changes.
If you wanted to go with command line instead they would be +sf10 +ef10.
You can even choose to use a fraction, or percentage, of the whole by using
numbers 0.0 to 1.0

I usually replace the clock variable in various places in my script.
#declare Camera_Clock = 0; // or any value, or clock
then I can render any moment in time of my animation without turning
animation on.
SInce I tend to manipulate the clock variable a lot in an animation,
this works best for me.

I use three .INI files:
final.ini is for doing final renderings (antialiasing on, pic size is
320x240)
still.ini is for doing tests of individual shots (antialiasing is off,
pic size is 512x384)
test.ini is for animation tests (antialiasing is off, pic size is
320x240)
This makes it easy to stop the final rendering when I get the machine
back from the wife, do some modelling, some test renders, and then
resume the final rendering where I left off, when I go to bed.
Regards,
John
