They have some great docs on their website and some fun tutorials. it woudln't actually work in POV but you'll get the idea or write computer programs to generate it. The input is script driven, so you basically have to type it all in by hand. Povray is a ray tracer and its very similar to renderman which the one used in a lot of movies. Does anybody have a link to the Mac version? Since I run a Mac, this does not help, now matter how much they crow. All I can find with my web searches now is this "hypersquid" windows-only version. I remember a link to the Gmax site being posted a while back that had a Mac version.
#Importing image into wings 3d how to
Does anybody out there know of a site that explains the *basic* use of POV for total beginners like myself? At the very least how to use it as a renderer for programs like Wings? The site says Wings 3d doesn't have a built in renderer, but is compatable with POV-RAY. It's also telling me that the dowloaded file is a compressed image file, not an application program. They're using some kind of esoteric compression format that my computor doesn't recondise.
That Wings 3d looks useful, but I can't get the download to work. I've figured out how to import textures and image maps, which you're not supposed to be able to do the intended way with the demo software. The demo version has a lot of neccisary features disabled, but you can still do a lot of fun stuff with it, like making VERY realistic planets for your photoshopped model pix. POV *may* work, I can't tell what I'm supposed to do with it, and I can't find any manual/tutorial links that don't assume you already know how to use it. Amapi is a HUGE memory hog, and less intuative than Strata (very, very important when there isn't a manual offered). I have the demo versions of Strata and Amapi, as well as POV-RAY. I've been trying to get some good 3D freeware for some time.
