  BTW, Dither What Colors...?
 
(...) Hmm. "You may think this is easy, but wait 'til I've explained it to you!" (One of my father's favourite standard joke.) I don't know how much difference it will make, but current standard colors are much better than the 16 original LDraw (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) Your passive-aggressive whining wears thin, Willy. Your chief target laughs it off, but you keep at it. What little sense of community there might be is not helped by this behavior or attitude. This approach says a lot more about you (and (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Warning: Printing Bug in MLCad!
 
Hi, sorry to say, but I just found a bug in MLCad which is caused by the actual compiler I'm using. When you start printing preview in MLCad it is crashing when part lists are printed. I'm working on that .... Michael (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

"Travis Cobbs" <tcobbs@REMOVEgmail.com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:Kxn3yE.p2D@lugnet.com... (...) So I will take over parts of the build in color table in the range of 256 to 511.

(...) I apologize for dreaming out loud. For a sec I've forgotten that we are a conservative community - at least some of us. (...) No password, not a single CA-header edit on your agenda nor a library update since ... was it 2004 or 2005? Steve, (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: *** MLCad V3.30 ***
 
(...) As it happens, the LSC has been dealing with this very issue for the past few months. There is no mention made of dither colors in any of the current LDraw specs (including the official parts restrictions). They somehow got dropped (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Using MPD syntax in official part files
 
(...) I can see that, although a great deal of care would need to be taken to make sure that the MPD sub-files had no chance of being useful in another part. (...) I can definitely see that. (...) I totally disagree with this as an argument for (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Using MPD syntax in official part files
 
(...) I was about to write the same thing, but you beat me. I think it's a great idea! I can think of two potential problems: 1. Programs that create seams between parts but not models. (Are there any more than L3P?) Depending on how they are (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Using MPD syntax in official part files
 
(...) I think eliminating part-specific subfiles would be a nice file-management benefit, if nothing else. I expect that reducing the number of part-specific subfiles would speed up the part-approval process, always a good thing. The most important (...)

  Re: *** MLCad V3.30 ***
 
Hello Don, (...) I thought the LDraw group doesn't allow any other colors than the standard ones? Even so I was in the assumption that I didn't create any special colors, but I toulk them over from some old spec where these colors where mentioned. I (...)

  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) Err, what? No, don't mix color codes and RGBs in official parts! This isn't an issue of backwards compatibility. It's an issue of adding complexity where it isn't needed (IMO, of course). (...) Ha! I'd have to get it back from Chris... Steve (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: German and Italian language add-on for MLCad 3.30 available
 
(...) Hello Michael, thanks for the tip. With the new build Willy created everything works fine without editing the registry. I just put the dll to the directory and it worked. Thanks very much again Marco (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) HURRAY! And in one go we are also gonna drop dithered colors in favour of RGBs. We'll have textures, the LSC is finally shaping the LCD - LDraw Connection Database (URL) and yourself are going to help getting LDView working as PT rendering (...)

  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) By the definitions of that article, *LUGNET* is a walled garden. <blank stare> I have put up a step-by-step showing example source LDR/image files. I did it on Facebook, because it took me almost no time to do. I'd either have had to set up my (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Using MPD syntax in official part files

I'm certainly open to the possibility, but only if it provides a concrete benefit, and I'm not having any luck coming up with what that benefit (...)

  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) I don't know why you need this, but I just did a test with LDView and it works. You can call an mpd file from within a part and the first model in the mpd file is shown together with the other content of the part file. cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: "Dither" colors in patterned/sticker parts
 
(...) I know. It's heresy! But if there are enough good reasons to make that leap, it might be worth it. Steve (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
