# Raytracing Occasionally the motivation to do a little modelling or raytracing comes over us. The longer pieces would consume too much bandwidth, however I did long ago select a few that looked interesting at the time. Most are povray 3.1 models. ## Stills Some furniture. A rocking chair, another rocking chair and Round desk. My cats made me put their favorite objects up here: The catcondo with fully articulated carpeting is a favorite as it took several hours to work out the math to mesh all the carpet fibers around the object. And yes, the fibers are all seperate objects. ## Animations (short ones anyway) A gear (47kb mpeg) A gear. A little bitty gear. Klingon Birds of Prey attack the enemy (691kb mpeg) Three birds of prey assault borg cubes in an unknown star system. Povray 3.1 Red Giant (472kb mpg) Animation of celestial motion around a Red Gant star. Originally created in Povray 3.1 then converted to MPEG1. A-Wings scramble towards TIE Interceptor (2.085mb mpeg) A short clip from a Lightwave project that has been lost over the years. Premise: Star Wars. A group of A-Wing fighters make a mad dash through an asteroid field to destroy a TIE Interceptor before it can take warning back to it's Star Destroyer group. Solar System (736kb gif) A solar system animation script in Povray 3.1. sol.ini and sol.pov. ## Utilities These are a few c utilities (with pre-compiled command-line Windows executables) to do some post-processing work on renders. POSTTOOL 0.1.13 (86kb, '98) This DOS DPMI program is a utility for frame rendering software (such as POV-ray or Lightwave) that output type 2 uncompressed Targa files (TGA). It takes all the frame images in your current folder and imprints the image from IMPRINT.TGA on them. Post filtering options are available as well. The primary use of the app is placing copyright notices and logos on your animation frames before conversion to MPEG, MOV, AVI, etc. Syntax is: `imprint [-?] [-m] [-a] [-aa] [-nm] [-bi] [-tri] [-bw] [-gray] [-sepia] [-soft] [-hard] [-neg] [-softneg] [-texel] [-in filename] [-sort] [-v] [-frames offsetX offsetY]` AFRAMES 0.0.1 (63kb, '98) A simple tool to average any number of uncompressed TGA frames into one frame. Useful for motion blur time lapsed photo effects.
