No height_fields, just CSG boxes and cylinders and such.

I used ffmpeg to make the .mp4 file using this command line:

ffmpeg -y -r 60 -start_number 0 -i Frame%03d.png -crf 17 -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt
yuv420p -r 60 LavaText.mp4

I don't actually know what some of those switches even mean but the end result
is a high quality 60 FPS .mp4 file. I'm glad it worked for you! I know exactly
what you're talking about regarding the past problems with animation files and I
agree, it's great that it works now.

Have a fantastic day!

Kind regards,
Dave Blandston
