Default Re: Hello & Questions

If you're using Bryce now, it may take a bit to get used to POVRay, since it's not really interactive, you have to code everything. If you're going to start using POVRay, I'd recommend you get PoseRay, which is another freeware program that allows you to interact with your models and create the scene without having to code before you render.

Also, I'd be really interested to find a way to keep an external renderer from triangulating every surface in models as well. Some of my models have hundreds of thousands of surfaces, and the renderers make some of them go to over a million!
