Years ago I created an animation with Povray.
See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0o0fgmyYYk
Now with a faster PC and a much better version of Povray I like to create the
same movie in Full HD ( 1920 x 1080 )
For older versions op Povray I used a Pre_Frame_Command to generate an insert
file for Povray.
like:
Pre_Frame_Command = \raytrace\cbx\tools\makeobj.exe
\raytrace\cbx\inifiles\movies\camfol\camfol %n
In fact I call my Borland Pascal program makeobj.exe with 2 parameters:
1) the path and name of a number of files to create the animation.
2) the frame number for the animation.
With Povray 3.7 it doesn't work anymore:
Ik looks like the program MAKEOBJ.EXE is executed, but without the parameters.
If I call a batch file and redirect the output of MAKEOBJ.EXE to a file I see a
file-not found error.
And If I call a batch file with parameters it (sometimes) crashes Povray.
If I open a command prompt and copy the command line it works fine!
Now I remember that there was a note somewhere that in an earlier release the
Pre_Frame_Command did not work.
Is there a workaround for this problem?
