  Re: 10177: UCS Boeing 787 Dreamliner!
 
I think this is a good looking model. Its nice to see Lego is till doing UCS type models that are other things then Star Wars. I showed it to my Dad who works at a boeing plant when he got home, and he said that he hadn't heard anything from anyone (...)

  POV-Ray file problem when rendering
 
I am working on a moc scene and everything is coming along nicely(that is once I remembered how to render mpd files so that everything shows up), but I have run into a slight problem. See in MLCAD there is the proper number of figs in the scene, (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  A new Lugnet poster.
 
Guten Tag! My name is Jeffrey Jarvis. I have been a long time fan of Lego from as early as I can remember. I decieded to get Lugnet posting access because I have a problem, and this is the place to come to have questions answered. But enough about (...)

  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
(...) Well, if you read all postings on MPD through the last seven years you should be able to piece the correct answer together :-) I believe the L3 parser (used in L3P, L3Lab and "ldglite -l3") reflects that information. > However, I can tell (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Talk about a hard choice! I voted for #2 because of the sheer awe-inspiring size, but if I had 2 votes, the Hungry Hippos would get a vote, too. (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)
 
  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
(...) Sorry, you're right every part in the mpd should see any of the other parts. May be Ldraw.org should post a set of 'testcase' files to be used as a reference for programmers. For each file there should be a description of the expected results (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
(...) Is that what I said? I didn't mean to... If an MPD contains main.dat, a.dat, and b.dat, then a.dat should be able to 'see' b.dat. I make heavy use of the MPD format while working on part files. Inside a single MPD, I typically have long chains (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
(...) You can do it in one pass (if you don't count the loading of the file to a stringlist). Wile walking through the file you build you're objectlist with subparts. Afterwards you go recursively through the list of subparts. This way all mpd (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
(...) I mentioned in my other (long) post that I don't think that MPD files should be required to have a .mpd extension. However, I'd like to add more here in answer to your specific question. I could be wrong, but I'm almost positive that it is (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
As you have pointed out, the spec is indeed ambiguous. Consequently, there's probably no correct answer as to how things should work. However, I can tell you what I do in LDView, so that you have an idea of how at least one MPD-compatible program (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
Thanks Tim and Steve, I think I will go with Steve's advise to let only the main part in the mpd see the other parts in the mpd. This will give a much cleaner recursive approach, in which I can easily support sub mpd's. Further more I think I will (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
