Hello Alex,
I enjoyed meeting you at Pyros's place at Siggraph. Great work on the
refraction mapping ipas!
You mentioned PMATH.PXP. Have you had any luck with PMATH? I tried it
yesterday and with the preset formulas (great shell, eh?!) or with my own
formulas, I get the same result: I get a nice-looking mesh in the editor but
when I render I get nothing. When I save the mesh to the disk and reload it I
get what appears to be a single vertex instead of a mesh. (I think the mesh
dissapears and the single vertex also shows up when I switch to the KF and then
back to the editor)
Have you seen any of these problems? Perhaps I have a bad copy of the IPAS?
If this works properly, it will be a very useful program.
