Just send me one of these files by e-mail (you have it), then I check it here - it's better.

I figured it out.
It was because what sandman has reported before.

I think I told before: if you didn't added lights to your scene, the exporter will export one or two infinit lights - looking for the option you have choosen in the View menu.

As you render directly from Wings you only see the message "No image rendered". If you export and run it on POV-Ray app and there we get a better message about the undeclared object:
The lights declarations are:

Quote:#declare wl_1_Infinite1 = light_source { ...
#declare wl_2_Infinite2 = light_source { ...

but the object declaration is
object{ wl_0_Infinite1
}
object{ wl_1_Infinite2
}

I'm working on this too.
