|
|
(URL) ULOW-1x: Unmanned Listening Outpost, Winterized> The Blacktron Intelligence Agency has recently set up a prototype listening station (ULOW-1x) on the ice covered proto-planet PP1. Sources close to the BIA have confirmed the rumor that this (...) (15 years ago, 29-May-09, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space, FTX)

| | Re: DATHeader NEW as .NET application (version 2.0.1)
|
|
(...) I use it sometimes in the middle of part design to make sure I have a valid part header and be able to get smooth shading with LDView. Philo (15 years ago, 29-May-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | Re: Suggestion: !TYPE line
|
|
(...) Sounds logical, but if we would have that in this way we just could go and hard color the part. At this point you should not be so narrow to the real part. In our part files there should be only the geometric data defined. The color is defined (...) (15 years ago, 29-May-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | Suggestion: !TYPE line
|
|
LEGO parts may vary in colour and pattern, but they are always of the same material. For example, there is no such thing as a Technic Axle 7 made of rubber or the Axle Flexible 7 that's solid, is there? Here I got an idea: have parts identify what (...) (15 years ago, 29-May-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | Re: LDraw.exe removed from distribution?
|
|
(...) I'd go with ldconfig.ldr. LDraw.exe is now legacy software (and is in fact not complaint with the current spec). Since ldconfig.ldr is per spec where color are defined, it should always be present in a 100% complaint distro. -Orion (15 years ago, 29-May-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | Re: DATHeader NEW as .NET application (version 2.0.1)
|

(...) If I would make the "Old Header" and "New Header" larger it would not fit good to smaller desktops. I am thinking of make to whole window able to maximise. That would then help both of us. At present DATHeader is designed to output a file that (...) (15 years ago, 28-May-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hello, I would like to have larger components "Old Header" and "New Header". Often the header does not fit to them and you have to scroll down both lists. And, please, make replacing "0" comments by "0 //" as option. This feature kill mlcad hide (...) (15 years ago, 28-May-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | LDraw.exe removed from distribution?
|
|
Hello all, I just downloaded the complete.zip and discovered LDraw.exe is no longer present. I take this is a step in creating the 100% CA distro? Anyhow, I always used LDraw.exe to validate (in LD4DStudio) if a folder is indeed the library's root. (...) (15 years ago, 28-May-09, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | Re: Looking for dimensions of LEGO bricks.

(...) I was aware of the Kiddiecraft connection, and that TLC bought all the remaining rights from them at some point, but I thought the original Automatic Binding Bricks were a legally licensed copy/variation of the Kiddiecraft bricks. If they (...) (15 years ago, 28-May-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | Re: Looking for dimensions of LEGO bricks.

(...) That's hardly some freak coincidence. The original 1949 Lego brick was an unauthorized copy of the Kiddicraft Self-Locking Building Brick, invented by an Englishman named Hilary Page. When the Christiansens got samples of them from the British (...) (15 years ago, 28-May-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) Center-to-center, of course. The stud diameters differ by 0.028 between the drawings too, creating a diff of the gaps of 0.046 (but the length of the parts are exactly the same). (...) Well, the drawings are of parts, not molds (and the parts (...) (15 years ago, 27-May-09, to lugnet.cad)

| | Re: Looking for dimensions of LEGO bricks.
|
|
(...) That much? Wow. I figured the distance between two studs should be closer to 3mm, since a LEGO tile is (in theory) 3.2mm thick, and it will sorta fit between two studs. Or were you refering to the center-to-center distance? Anyways, one thing (...) (15 years ago, 27-May-09, to lugnet.cad)

It was felt that the community would benefit with an (...) (15 years ago, 27-May-09, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Wow! Good to hear from you after all these years. I'll never forget the sight of your monster ship packed up in sections and squashed into the back of your car at Brickfest ;-) You can still contact me about roller bearings when you want ;-) (note (...)

(...) I'm not at liberty to say too much, but I have actually looked at three real drawings of LEGO parts, and not even TLC seems to be sure what the dimensions should be - I've seen the distance between two studs dimensioned as 8 mm on one part and (...) (15 years ago, 26-May-09, to lugnet.cad)
