JPGFILE: fc_laber.jpg ZIPFILE: fc_laber.zip RENDERER USED: Unofficial MegaPov 0.7 TOOLS USED: Cyberlat Color Encoder 1.0 Sherif Photo Plus 6 RENDER TIME: ___ 3 minutes 31 seconds !!! HARDWARE USED: Pentium III 733 MHz 256 Mb of RAM IMAGE DESCRIPTION: I was thinking in the Fortress topic and I thought that a maze is a good idea. A maze is not like a castle or a dungeon, but is a place in that is very dificult find the exit, this maze in particular is a maze that I saw in a dream, for this reazon I did the sky very cloudy. In the dream the maze was very large, like in my scene, the skeleton was for increase the drama and like a reference point. Excuse my english, in fact i speak spanish. I wrote this file in english because most people in the IRTC speak english. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: First I did a wall macro (it is in the .zip file) and with this i did a block of my maze (the principal block), next I did other block, in total I did 3 kinds of blocks that I was combine in the principal file fc_laber.pov to create the maze effect. I created the floor in a similar way. The skeleton was a model that I obtain in a Internet chat (thanks mike22). I made the mountains whith the Sherif Photo Plus, these are a heightfield. The stone textures are the textures that you can find in the stones.inc file, for the sky I used a real sky image as a image_map, I can't simulate a realistic cloudy sky with the texture capabilities of POV-Ray and I think thath the sky effect is very important for my scene and it was the most difficult to. I used normals for the walls and for the floor, I used a discreet gray fog in the horizon and lights with shadowless, because in a cloudy day the objects don't cast a shadow. I used other texture of stones.inc file for the mountains and I think that is all... For any question you can write me to: majucatur@yahoo.com ...or to my e-mail of my web page: povcorn@yahoo.com Only remember that I don't speak the english very good, I am studying the idiom.
