RENDERER USED: 
    Pov-ray v3.6

TOOLS USED: 
    Easy Graphic Converter 1.2

RENDER TIME: 
    I didn't keep track. It took me a couple weeks to get the final
thing together.  And the include file took a week.  So three weeks.

HARDWARE USED: 
    Windows XP

IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


I took the title and made a game out of it.  I love those "Find the missing
things" games, so I took Absence, and made my own.  For those who want to know
right now what the things are, Here is a list.

1. No milage after "Hartford, CT"
2. No Exit Sign for the exit.
3. No windows on the sky train.
4. One sky train coach is missing.
5. There are no liscence plates or any sort of identification on the cars. (one
of the harder ones to spot)

The fog was meant to be associated with a storm, but it was hard to get in the
proper rain, thunder, etc.  So I just stuck with a cloudy atmosphere.  Also, It
saves a lot of programming around the image.

You should note that I did try to make a car taking an exit.  If there is
anything I can do better, or someway to improve the cars, please e-mail me.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


It started with the skyway layout.  The exit is a while tutrial.  There are
three cars and one train in the include file.  The sign is also in the inc
file.  I hope to upload the include file on my webpage in about a year. I want
to keep the source secret, and what I use to make them.  Please keep looking,
and I hope to use this in my next animation as well.  I create the Adventures
of The USS Starrider. If you haven't noticed, I am in to future technology
enough that I program them into reality.  For other futeristic scenes, look at
my webpage, which includes a hologram projector, space scenes, etc.  I update
images every week.

        If anyone wants to use the source code, email me and I will give the inc
for the cars and proper citation instructions only.  Usually, If you tell me
how you want to use it, I will feel better of giving the files away. Good Luck
to all other entrants.
