        Did this poll help any? How is development going?

        I see the exporter for SunFlow died of malnutrition. I was kinda keeping an eye out for that one, somehow.

            Can you please tell me why the material finishing under Vista Home premium and SU 7 is not remembered and nor processed in the render ?

            With kind regards

              If I understand correctly, SU2POV is of great historic importance. It served as the basis for SU2KT (SketchUp to Kerkythea), which in turn served as the basis for Skindigo.

              So thank you, Didier! All users of Kerkythea and Indigo are in great debt with you. 😄

              And thanks to the POV coders. It was my first realistic raytracer and I learned a lot of terminology.

                Didlier,

                I think you did a good job on SU2POV but I think the hype of the plethora of new (free/cheap) rendering engines appearing on the market would make this project a waste of your talents. I have a small archive of projects that I recoded at some stage or another and wish I had spent the effort on something more innovative than improving the codebase on some of these.

                  Hi Didier

                  Keep the good work you are doing ! I am sorry I've sent you so many email asking why the plugin is not working ! I've really thought is a small bug and it should work under SU7 also, but now I see you are working hard to do the fixes and updates for a new version of SU7toPOV ! Warms thank you to you.

                    Hello all,

                    I'm new to the board.

                    I've been trying to learn rendering and would like to see su2pov work on the Mac with SU7. I have SU6 Pro but the latest version of su2pov ported to the Mac is 2.4 which apparently does not work on SU beyond ver 5.

                    I thought I would work on the ruby script su2pov.rb that comes with the Windows version of su2pov (su2pov3.2) which does work with SU6 to see if I could modify that for the Mac OS, but unlike other ruby scripts I have seen, it is not a plain text file.

                    Does anyone have any information about su2pov for SU7 OR a Mac version of su2pov3.2 OR any guidance as to how I can get a version of su2pov.rb (v3.2) that I can open in a text editor?

                    Thanks,

                    Rich
