WORKSFORME

Can you post a whole scene that tips over?

----------
#version 3.7;
#declare Inverse = function (x, y, z, R, S) {log( 1-Inverse(x,y,z,R,S))}

Possible Parse Error: Recursive function calls are not allowed!
at File: recursivememdeath.pov Line: 2 Col: 73
Possible Parse Error: assumed_gamma not specified in this POV-Ray v3.7
or later scene. Future versions of POV-Ray may consider this a fatal
error. To avoid this warning, explicitly specify 'assumed_gamma 1.0' in
the global_settings section. See the documentation for more details.
Parse Warning: No objects in scene.
