I've modeled the Light Cycle arena from the movie TRON.  I'm wanting to
render a few fly-by animations with the camera banking, etc.  I'm familiar
with Spline_Trans.  Is there a way to apply this to a camera?  Or is there
a better way to generate simple fly-by animations.

Thanks,
Carl

There's a good example of how to use Spline_Trans with a camera in the
supplied demo scene "Splinefollow.pov". You just have to use
   #declare FirstPerson = yes;
to activate it. It does all the banking automatically.

Thanks...  That's exactly what I was after.
