(URL) which you will see a very 'youtube'-ish low quality video of our classic space layout at the show last weekend. Besides the stock '77 thru '82 space sets, you will see a moonbase-compliant monorail station built by Jeff vW, a classic (...)

(...) I completely agree that changing the colour codes at this stage is a terrible idea. However I have nothing against duplicating them. One thing we do need is to maintain, alongside the LDraw codes, mapping lists to other known systems such as (...) (16 years ago, 25-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Since MLCAD (and other programs) do not support color codes above 511, a different approach to reading TLG colors is needed. However, I have to strongly agree with Philo. Changing color codes that have been defined for years is not a good (...) (16 years ago, 25-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)
