I decided to release some of the patches i wrote in the last weeks (mainly
pattern stuff). I used PovMan 0.7 as a basis and also added Chris Huff's
particle system patch.
The Cygwin compile as well as the complete source code is available on:
http://www.schunter.etc.tu-bs.de/~chris/povcyg.html
I also wrote a documentation and some sample scenes for the new patterns.
Comments and suggestion welcome of course, if anyone compiles it for a
different platform, i would be happy to supply a link.

It's interesting how many MegaPOV-based patches there are going around
now... for a long while there it was just MegaPOV and people's personal
compiles which quickly became part of MegaPOV...

Perhaps MegaPOV should get a SourceForge project & CVS repository.

Nah, don't worry. They will become one with the collective soon enough. It
always happens. :)

don't bank on it. patches are now frequently using megapov as their base
instead of the regular povray sc

There was also a time before megapov, IIRC it combined a lot of single
independant patches into one.
Since Nathan Kopp and others seem to be quite busy these days, there were
not many new additions in Megapov (0.7 was mainly bug fixes) in the last
time.
I'm also not sure if it's planned to include the larger and more special
patches like povman, cloth and particle system into megapov.

That could change again if 3.5 is out, but i'm not very sure about it. A
lot of Megapov's features will not be part of 3.5 and at least some of
them will probably still be interesting for the new version.
CVS or something similar would be quite useful IMO, but maybe there is
already something planned in that direction (???) :-)

You do not recall correctly, if I may be so blunt. MegaPOV is Nathan's
pile o' patches plus the late unlamented Superpatch, which combined lots of
single independent patches into one. There was another patch prior to
that (and prior to 3.1 as well) which combined a half-dozen or so independent
patches as well, but I've forgotten its name. When I made the first
Superpatch I picked over what was in the prior collection, but I didn't keep
everything. Probably the single most important contribution I made with the
Superpatch was to port pre-3.1 patches to work with 3.1.

Yeah, for some reason he seems to think the official 3.5 is more important.
Go figure.

Before MegaPOV, there must have been a couple dozen patches roaming around
the Net... Then Ron Parker came and created the SuperPatch. Some time later,
MegaPOV creator Nathan Kopp created UVPOV, and UVPOV and the SuperPatch
existed simultaneously for a long time as well. Then Ron had less time on
his hands and passed on the SuperPatch to his successor, Nathan Kopp and the
rest of the programming POVers. Of this merge {} was born MegaPOV. There was
also a MultiPatch on the Mac, but I don't know much about that. I just know
that the Smellenberg joined Nathan's MegaPOV to their patch and it just kept
going on as MegaPOV. I trust the patches that roam free now will eventually
join into MegaPOV.

Ok, thanks for pointing that out, i was't very sure about the details.

Of course, if it sounded like complaint, that wasn't intended.
