Sometimes I'm not quite sure I will have the patience needed. But today I found
out the reason of my problems just by chance. I always had ribbon like
structures around my "cloud" which were annoying completelly. But they did not
come from the df3-file or the scattering or absorbing parameters or the the warp
turbulence, I would have expected them. They came from "interpolate 2" within
the density file definition. I ever thought that a cubic interpolation would be
better than a linear one only resulting in longer rendering time. But seems, I
was wrong with that.

Best regards,
Michael
