Joshua,
I'm curious about the POV-Ray crash you described. Does VMD
itself crash, or does POV-Ray crash? How much memory does your
computer have? It is possible that either POV-Ray or VMD are
running out of memory. If you can tell me more details of your
machine that would be helpful.
Cheers,
John Stone
