Livecoding the 'carto' sequence

@tth : Pour continuer, je pertinente avec la vidz en bonne qualité et le lien vers le code source. Et toujours sans la moindre #IA pour faire le truc à ma place. #POVray, c'est facile à apprendre, et bien fun aussi à apprendre.

Fork it and enjoy.

#Raytracing with #Povray - The #Hexacone family wish you a better new year. Stay tuned, film at 11

Running gpt-oss-20b on a MacBook Air M1 with #ollama reminds me of the days when I tried #PovRay mid 90s: I get one word every ~20 minutes, and while the task given is useless (a hello world in Typescript in Node), I don't dare to stop it before the end.

#raytracing avec #povray : Voici le dernier commit avant la #sieste, la #gif89a qui va avec et les séquences en mode graphique #EGA comme au bon vieux temps.

Et pour une vue générale en bien grand, c'est là --> http://maison.tth.netlib.re/p/hc/grande-carto.png

Le code #povray est dans le Git du #tetalab --> https://git.tetalab.org/tTh/HexaCone (fork and enjoy)

Comment mettre de la couleur dans votre #raytracing de la famille Hexacone..

#local R  = rand(Rng1);
#if 	(R < 0.25)	texture { tPlasticOrange }
#elseif	(R < 0.50)	texture { tPlasticBlue   }
#elseif	(R < 0.75)	texture { tPlasticPrune  }
#else 			texture { tPlasticGreen  }
#end	// if

#Povray, c'est trop cool !

Haven't done much else with my render of nearest stars to the Sun, other than refactoring code and changing the view. But I updated the colour pallette and processed it in GIMP with a bloom filter, which works way better than I hoped!

Just added Opus 4.5 pelican on a bicycle (raytracer edition) here:

Significantly worse than Opus 4.1!

did I mention my fondness of platonic solids

I've updated my LLM raytraced pelicans to include GPT-5.1 models:

#Raytracing avec #Povray de la famille #Hexacone, voici le #commit du matin.

https://git.tetalab.org/tTh/HexaCone/commit/0b04ffd35922a56aa66c052a4b3ab5e650cbd012

Du #raytracing en #Povray, je demande le projet #hexacone en mode #EGA.

@tth@tube.interhacker.space : Alors là, je n'ai aucune idée de comment cette vidéo arrive dans Mastodon ! Et elle est très ancienne. Ceci dit, c'est un projet de #raytracing en #Povray que je pense remettre en route un de ces soirs.

#raytracing with #Povray : working on a new sequence for the #Hexacone family's saga.

Though all of my current and previous computers were without exception too underpowered for any professional work, I have nevertheless always played around with #3DGraphics. It started on the #Commodore64 with #GigaCAD and ended nowadays – of course – with #Blender3D. In between the usual suspects (#PovRay, #3DSMax, #SoftImage, #Maya, #Rhino, etc.).

For the #Amiga I bought the #bookware "#Reflections 2.0" which seems to have been lost. While the @internetarchive has copies of the books of version 1, I couldn't find version 2 anywhere (not even in printed form). The software itself is also nowhere to be found.

A twist on @simon getting LLMs to draw pelicans on bicycles: Getting it to do it using a raytracer:
