Hi all!
Is povanim able to export texturemaps into pov-ray? I mean automtic textures (flat, square …) as well as uv maps?

“export”, no.
A future version (next sunday or monday released, perhaps) will give ability to “create” a copy of this type of texture. But for moment you can’t export the procedural, Blender or plugins, textures.

So when I create a scene in Blender and export it to POV, all texturing will lost. Hmm - the Blender to VirtuaLight script can’t export textures either, but it can prepare it so that you only have to insert a “UV ImageMapping” directive and you can use texmaps.
Oh, you probably misunderstand me. When I wrote “automatic textures” I didn’t meant procedural textures but automaticly mapped textures (flat, square or spherical texturing is sometimes called ‘automatic mapping’ in opposite to uv-mapping).
So is it possible to export textures at all?

Except UVmapped image and vertex colors.
With povanim the directive is added automaticaly.
In next release…

OK then I’m looking forward to your next release.
