Even bigger problems :
I also have a 3.1g version that will not display to X-windows. I will
therefore run a make clean and then compile the x-windows edition.
A much bigger problem that I am having is that POV-Ray 3.1g seems to lock up
while rendering a simple image with a blob in it. ...

Well .. that's all there is to that. Clearly a problem with the makefile. I'll
go get a backup tape and see if I can find the source and distribution files for
3.1e because that worked rather well ...

Here is a screen shot from my workstation ... it pretty much shows what happens
when 3.1e attempts to render my scene file. Sory about the size but I made this
as small as possible. Will anyone be interested in attempting to render this
image? I'd like to know that I wasn't the only one that is having this problem

Email it to me and I will try it on the v3.1g windows platform for you.

Ok !... It took me a while but I think I have isolated the problem you
are having to one component in your blob construct. If you remove or
reduce the amount of reflection you have specified the render time goes
back down to an acceptable level. I believe you are simply experiencing
internal reflections which causes the program to send out a lot more
rays to calculate the object. By removing the reflection component it
only has to work on the transparent surfaces and the specular and phong
highlights you have specified.
It's up to you if you want to live with these long render times but
personally I would either seriously reduce the reflection to something
like 0.05 or less or eliminate it completely. Any other changes I attempted
had little or no effect on the render time but turning off the reflection
was immediately noticeable. I also noticed little difference as to image
quality with it tuned off.
P.S. I never really hit a point where my system was "locked up". It simply
started taking a long time to render once I got to the second frame of the
animation. As the second frame progressed I could watch the pps counter
drop at a visible rate so eventually it might have appeared to have locked
up but of course it really was working only in slow motion.
I have a pentium 200 running win 98 with 128 megs of ram.

There must be a big difference between your Win98 version of POVRay and my unix
build because even after I commented out the reflections in the blob components
I still had a system that looks like its locked up. ITs not locked up, it just
isnt doing anything meaningful. Here is a truss of the process running, if you
can call it that :

write(2, "\n G o t 3 S I G T E".., 15) = 15
setcontext(0xFFBD89C8)
*** process killed ***
which is to say that I needed to su root to kill the process. Other than a
lot of calls to time() and ioctl() there is really only the occasional write()
to the terminal. Once my render hits line 111 of 240, everything just stops.

I had a blob with six spheres that looked like so :
#declare blobber = blob {
threshold 0.65
sphere { < ( -1.0 * sock ) , 0.0, 0.0>, 1.0, 1.0
texture {
// ruby color
pigment { color rgbf <1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.9> }
finish {
ambient 0.1
diffuse 0.1
//reflection 0.25
//specular 0.8
roughness 0.0003
//phong 0.8
//phong_size 250
}
}
}
sphere { < ( 1.0 * sock ) , 0.0, 0.0>, 1.0, 1.0
texture {
pigment { color rgbf <0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.9> }
finish {
ambient 0.1
diffuse 0.1
//reflection 0.25
//specular 0.8
roughness 0.0003
//phong 0.8
//phong_size 250
}
}
}
sphere { < 0.0, ( 1.0 * sock ), 0.0 >, 1.0, 1.0
texture {
pigment { color rgbf <0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.9> }
finish {
ambient 0.1
diffuse 0.1
//reflection 0.25
//specular 0.8
roughness 0.0003
//phong 0.8
//phong_size 250
}
}
}
//sphere { < 0.0, ( -1.0 * sock ), 0.0 >, 1.0, 1.0
// texture {
// pigment { color rgbf <1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.9>
}
// finish {
// ambient 0.1
// diffuse 0.1
// //reflection 0.25
// //specular 0.8
// roughness 0.0003
// //phong 0.8
// //phong_size 250
// }
// }
//}
//sphere { < 0.0, 0.0, ( 1.0 * ock ) >, 1.0, 1.0
// texture {
// pigment { color rgbf <1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.9>
}
// finish {
// ambient 0.1
// diffuse 0.1
// //reflection 0.25
// //specular 0.8
// roughness 0.0003
// //phong 0.8
// //phong_size 250
// }
// }
//}
//sphere { < 0.0, 0.0, ( -2.0 * ock ) >, 1.0, 1.0
// texture {
// pigment { color rgbf <0.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.9>
}
// finish {
// ambient 0.1
// diffuse 0.1
// //reflection 0.25
// //specular 0.8
// roughness 0.0003
// //phong 0.8
// //phong_size 250
// }
// }
//}
interior{ ior 1.5
}
}
and you will note that three of the spheres are commented out so that I could
test for a bug. I didn't find a bug but what I did find was that the following
command :
truss -t!ioctl,time -o truss_blob.out /usr/local/povray31/x-povray

BUT FRAME 10 was over 5 minutes! Why? Because the blob components entered each
others field area at frame 10 but not in frame 9. In frame 9 they were just
spheres but in frame 10 we get a bit of pinching as the components begin to
merge. If the reflection, specular and phong lines are left in the scene file
then the whole process is much like a rocket sled hitting a wall of jello. Even
after 10 hours the computer has not rendered a single line.
What the heck goes on here? IT must be because the individual components all
have different colors. If I change the blob to the following :
#declare blobber = blob {
threshold 0.65
sphere { < ( -1.0 * sock ) , 0.0, 0.0>, 1.0, 1.0

SO unless I have a mainframe or a Sun E10000 with 64 processors, don't bother
rendering a 64 frame animation with multicolor blob elements.

Well, I tried what you said and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the
help....I wish Pov-Ray compile docs were a bit more helpful in that matter
(though, I guess they really don't have to be wish so few people compiling it
themselves).
Good luck, and happy tracing!
