I added some stuff to the superpatch sources and upload a binary to
http://members.xoom.com/POVRAY/minipatch.zip. Currently xoom is down,
but it should be available later once they get their heads out
of...anyway, here's the new stuff:
camera {
spherical_camera
h_angle int
v_angle int
}
and
media {
sample_method 1 or 2
jitter float
}
The first one is self-explanitory, I think. The second one uses evenly
ditributed samples when sample_method is 2 and will use the jitter
amount to stagger the depth of the samples. 0 is none and 1 will move
them around up to the distance to the next sample.

Can you get this out into a new version of the SuperPatch any time soon? You
have been mentioning a lot of stuff, and lots of people have come up with
little patches lately, yet you haven't put out any new versions recently.
Please give us a progress report at least. You know we sit on the edges of
our seats about this constanly. =)
PS: I'm glad you liked the cake. I'll be sending you the sources soon.
Should I include the texture for the floor? (It's a bit large, and I'm sure
you can come up with a better one).

Um. No progress recently. There are a lot of little patches I need to track
down and integrate. So far, I definitely have isoblobs and photons and a
few other little things, but I had those a month ago. I'd definitely like to
add this media one, and fix a smattering of bugs I've posted in .bugreports.
No idea when I'll find time to do that, though.

I'm not so sure. It was a very nice texture. I assume it's an image map?

Oh, I see. Yes, I've noticed.

So why didn't you put it out?

Yes, the media must be added, the bugs must be fixed.

=(
>I'm not so sure. It was a very nice texture. I assume it's an image map?
Yes. I'll include it for you then, I forget where I got it from, or else I
would have given you the link.

Sounds great and I look forward to giving it a try. Now if xoom will just get
their heads out of... well hopefully it will be available soon.

First off, xoom was down before, so they did actually have their heads up
their...well anyway, turns out I wasn't seeing sunshine either, as I messed
up the link when I posted it. I couldn't test it because they weren't
responding this morning. :(
Try http://members.xoom.com/POVRAY3/minipatch.zip
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I sent you an email asking about which ones you wanted, but I wasn't sure
if you got it, so I just posted all the changed files to
binaries.programming. I need to remember to include them next time...

Will you be leaving this on xoom for a while ? I will link to the direct
file if you intend to leave it up.
Thanks,

Yeah, it'll probably be there along as I use the xoom thing, which is probably
too long. I wish I has a decent place to put stuff. If I ever move my stuff
I'll let you know.
