In the scene file in the first post use

sphere{0,1,-0.8 scale <1,0.00021,1> Point_At_Trans(Normal) translate
Normal*Distance*1.2}

inside the blob loop

and this for the lighting:

light_source{< -300, 3000,   0> rgb <0.3,0.35,0.2>}
light_source{< 3000,  300,-500> rgb .5}
light_source{< 700,  300,-500> rgb <0.4,0.2,0.0>}
light_source{< -300,-3000,   0> rgb <0.2,0.2,0.6>}

There is no control over the modelling, it is an intersection of many blob and
the blobs are scaled "thin". It would not surprise me if the result is also OS
dependent.

Here's an other one, from the same scene file settings: N24SY0.0001
