Hello, fellow AFOLs and LDrawers.
I would like to ask for some advice, please.
I wish to render some of my LDraw models in a night setting. In other words, they will be in darkness (or near darkness), but I would like light to appear to come from inside the model. Think lights coming from the window of a house and illuminating the street.
My usual method is to model in LDCAD and use its export feature to generate a .pov file, which I then render using POVRay. I have been learning how to edit the .pov file to alter the lighting, change the floor etc. I tried to place a lightsource inside the scene, but this is clearly the wrong way to do it. Can anyone offer advice on how to achieve what I am trying to do?
Apologies if this topic has already been covered elsewhere.
Many thanks,
Max

So on my first time here I accidently pressed to always download as a .Dat file.
I need .ipt, does anyone know how to change the file download or any tips to convert it?
