        Hi,
        @vidy: sorry, but the old material editor has been deleted... (it was windows-only).
        @solodown: il me faudrait le message d'erreur en entier (avec le numéro de ligne où ça plante). merci.

              If you mean attach another image (than the one of the texture) for the bump effect, the answer is no, but you can do this editing the pov-ray material manually.

                  actually i want to add the same image, but with normal map or black and white version..
                  any tips about edit it manually as you describe above? thanks

                      thanks for your response didier, but that technique kind of make me nervous, since im not good at programming.. 😳

                      what i want to confirm from you, is there any possibility to add an external image texture in your material "surface effect" dialog box? (something that we can browse it independently) 😄

                      thanks,

                              Merci pour cette version pour mac.

                              Elle tourne en effet sur mac. Le fichier pov est creé. POV n'est pas lancé automatiquement, mais pour moi tant mieux, car je peux lancer MegaPOV manuellement.

                              Pour moi, c'est suffisant. Cependant, le plugin essaye de créer des fichiers dans un sous-directoire mais en utilisant le séparateur "" comme en windows, et pas "/". Le résult est que "" vient à faire part du nom du fichier.
                              Si, par exemple, le nom du sketch est "sketch",
                              en lieu de créer un fichier "sketch.pov" dans une directoire "sketch", un fichier avec le nom "sketch\sketch.pov" est créé et le directoire "sketch" reste vide. C'est pas grave, mais quelque chose à rectifier peut-être dans une nouvelle version.

                              Merci beaucoup!

                                    Didier,

                                    I installed Su2POV3.5: no problem. However when I start rendering I get the message: "POV file created in C:\users..\desktop\untitled but unable to launche POV-Ray......"
                                    What's going wrong?

                                    Cees

                                        Hi.

                                        I have discovered a rather obscure but very inconvenient bug in su2pov.
                                        While trying to render an architectural model using POV-ray and su2pov i found that parts of my model were in the wrong place (far far out of place).

                                        The common factor for all the missing or dislocated parts is that they have all been scaled as a part of an operation using other addons.

                                        Components that have been scaled while using Chris Fulmer's ComponentStringer or Scale and rotate multiple are moved out of place.
                                        If a component has been scaled manually it behaves as normal. However this problem is reproducible when using the aforementioned plugins.

                                        One of the components i am using is dynamic and the other is set to face camera. i have not tried with basic components.
                                        I have tried removing all my other plugins and just using su2pov but the problem does persist even so.

                                        I am using SU8 pro, su2pov 3.5 and the latest versions available of ComponentStringer and Scale and rotate mulitiple.

                                        Seeing as all these plugins are very useful tools, I hope it is possible to make them work together.

                                        regards

                                          Bonjour,

                                          Ce plugin est très intéressant...

                                          Malheureusement, il semble y avoir quelques problèmes de génération des uv_vectors pour les textures dans le fichier .pov

                                          Par exemple, lorsque l'on fait un rectangle sans épaisseur les uv_vectors "ressemblent" aux vertex_vectors...

                                          vertex_vectors {
                                          4,
                                          <208.246285635031,0.0,265.826360174799>,
                                          <-396.253714364969,0.0,-140.798639825201>,
                                          <-396.253714364969,0.0,265.826360174799>,
                                          <208.246285635031,0.0,-140.798639825201>,
                                          }

                                          uv_vectors {
                                          4,
                                          <-208.246285635031,265.826360174799>,
                                          <396.253714364969,-140.798639825201>,
                                          <396.253714364969,265.826360174799>,
                                          <-208.246285635031,-140.798639825201>,
                                          }

                                          alors que l'on devrait avoir

                                          uv_vectors {
                                          4,
                                          <-3.25384821304735,4.15353687773123>,
                                          <6.19146428695265,-2.19997874726877>,
                                          <6.19146428695265,4.15353687773123>,

                                          }

                                          Ca serait cool si une correction était possible...

                                            Bonjour,
                                            Oui effectivement il y a un problème, mais qui n'arrive que sur des faces non extrudées, je ne sais pas pourquoi.
                                            Fait un cube avec cette face et tu verras ça marche 😳
