thank you for your reply. There is indeed the image type 'png' missing. After adding it, I got an error about 'union'
" *File 'render_frames.pov.assets' line 66659: Parse Error: No matching } in 'union', union found insteadFatal error in parser: Cannot parse input.Render failed* " and the related snippet of the file *render_frames.pov.assets *is as follows *66655 #macro mt_94543288114160()66656 texture { uv_mapping pigment { image_map {png "/home/starwar9527/Coding/opensource/github/chrono/build/data/textures/bluewhite.png" }}}66657 #end 66658 #macro sh_94543288114560()66659 union {66660 box {66661 <-0.1,-0.1,-0.01>66662 <0.1,0.1,0.01>66663 quatRotation(<1,0,0,0>)66664 translate <0.4,0,0>66665 }66666 }* *66667 #end * Because I am new to povray, and I googled for the error, but could not find a correct way to fix it. Do you know how I can make it correct? Thank you!
