Open source options for a physical based renderer - Stefan (Cloverleaf) - 08-10-2021

Currently there exists one port of a raytracer for RISC OS of POVray https://www.riscosports.co.uk/vfp/
But there exists some more sophisticated renderers that could be ported.

Who would like to port them and maybe inetgrate them into an 3D editor. A very simple 3D editor is available in the form of the Merlin 3D editor on this site also.
