  Re: Vikings?
 
(...) So, is it a hoax or not? Any idea when these may be coming out? John R. Beck (returning fan) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: need help with instructions
 
(...) Do you have Adobe Acrobat or Macromedia Fireworks? These are NOT freeware or shareware programs, but can get a trial version of Macromedia Fireworks to use for 30 days by going to the Macromedia Website. Macromedia Fireworks is a graphical (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Open letter to the CEO of the LEGO Company / Call for your signs! (no discussions here please)
 
I wholeheartedly agree. Chris McNamee (18) Portland, OR (21 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: RCX3 - Can extra hardware functionality be added?
 
(...) Having built a number of prototype "clone" bricks, I feel reasonably certain that the RCX's internal space is not the limiting factor. The surface area occupied by 2x2 I/O connectors is the true limit. (Assuming you dedicate a board to hosting (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Hey, The monitor is a bit huge, but the shape is really nice. I like your mouse solution particularly. Bruce (21 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Interesting roof idea...
 
on a very nice model (URL) hope I'm not stealing anyone's thunder but I saw this train in the new folders on Brickshelf and had to post. As well as simple but clever tilt technique it looks really good, with a complicated front well rendered in the (...) (21 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains) !

(...) Yea, new rule. If you want to express something controversial on lugnet, then do it using bricks, rather than words. :) -Alfred (21 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: need help with instructions
 
I have used LPub in setting up the instructions. Could you tell me how you have used these other programs (Adobe Photoshop, Macromedia Fireworks) to create the backgrounds and arrows and how you create the box call out things? I am not very well (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Parts editing made easy, anyone?
 
(...) No DAT part can provide a perfect render without using some substitutions - flat polygons just can't do perfect curved surfaces. But that's another issue. I have recently finished re-authoring Ben's wheels (URL) (waiting for his OK before I (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: RCX3 - Can extra hardware functionality be added?
 
I've seen this topic come up several times, and am curious why no one suggests that the input and output ports be extended from the RCX to pods. Using the same form factor constraints limits the possibilities. Using a more condensed cable connection (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Open letter to the CEO of the LEGO Company / Call for your signs! (no discussions here please)
 
I pretty much love LEGO unconditional. But the supply of the old colours will eventually run out. A lot of parts will not be available in the new colours for quite a while, so it is a problem for Moccers. How would you feel, if you had a car (...)

  Re: Parts editing made easy, anyone?
 
(...) I should probably find then for what is LDraw library aimed at. If it's something like as perfect as possible renders or some quick mockup prototyping. (...) Wouldn't it be possible to be the parts as accurate as possible and then (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Cross platform GUI
 
Well I'm kind of of pissed. ** begin rant ** Curious to find an acceptible substitute for Java, I was looking into cross platform GUI toolkits. GTK+ came to mind but alas no Mac support for the latest version. Then I thought of Qt. I visited the Qt (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: No Comment
 
(...) Tim, That is great. And I know exactly what that feels like. Last week, a coworker and I got buried in 6 feet of code vomit. The monitor is a little big for MF scale but that's OK, it's very nicely made and believable. KR (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Re: Sorting Bley and Chocolate Brown
 
(...) Me too! Light grey is light grey. Occasionally a new color piece really stands out so I simply discard it back into the tub and grab for another. My collection is still mainly old, so that procedure works well. The only real problem is my (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.storage)

  Space Shuttle at Zellers
 
Guys (and Janey) This is probably old news, but my local Zellers has the Space Shuttle (URL) On for $29.99!! I hope it's not a local misprint, but I got the last two here for Christmas/Easter/Bday gifts for my nephews this year. Cheers, Ralph (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: Sorting Bley and Chocolate Brown
 
(...) I too mix all my greys. Having a mostly technic collection, I don't have much new brown, but it will be mixed in too. I have already built MOCs that mix the greys, and have no problem with it. If I build something that just has to be (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.storage)
 
  Re: New Train Moc - Simple Red Caboose
 
THANKS EVERYONE! Not only for the compliments but for the courteous exchange! I have to admit that it feels good too! :) It was just one of those MOCs that just came together. I guess I have been so obsessed with building in rare colors that I (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.trains)
