Apparent Error Rendering to Pov-Ray??

Terry Capps · 15th February 2022, 02:11 PM

While doing a render to Pov-Ray, AC3D seems to be specifying an invalid file path (see
attached collage of images illustrating the action).

Pov-Ray shows a message saying "invalid path."

The correct image in "ac3dpovfile.pov" is still generated and can be run by Pov-Ray by
clicking on "Run", but I believe Pov-Ray would allow the rendering to happen immediately
if the pathname was correct.

Actually I ran into this problem before and found a solution (see attached image collage to see
how to make it work flawlessly).

This issue could probably be moved over to the GENERAL category.
