from what I've seen it looks pretty good but so I downloaded a copy of it and when ever I start it it quits and the error message pops up I've downloaded it about three times and still the same thing. is it for classic I do have access to classic or windows if I need to but I want to avoid that. I have intel with osx 10.5.6 on it
 
From their website:

Important: Some users with an Intel-Mac (any Mac sold in 2007 or later as well as some 2006 models) have reported problems running POV-Ray 3.6. These problems are due to Apple's PowerPC emulator crashing for an unknown reason. The emulator is part of Mac OS X and out of POV-Ray's control. Numerous users, including all POV-Ray developers with Macs, have no problems. We suspect some weird configuration issue at this point, which only Apple service could help with if you are experiencing this problem. We cannot do anything about it, so sending us bug reports will not solve your problem. Sorry!

If you have an Intel Mac, classic will not work.

If you have access to a machine with classic, OS 9.22, or Windows, I'd suggest running the appropriate port of the program in one of those environments. Sorry.
