  Re: How would you do it?
 
(...) I'm 99++% certain that's not the case, given the input data Jeroen was able to recover for me. I think removing reflections would be a lot of work, better to change the properties of the surface to get them not to happen. (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Asking for RIS 2.0 patch under Windows XP
 
Threre are two fixes to the "A critical error has occurred" problem. One fix is to uninstall the latest Quicktime and install the older Quicktime version from the RIS CD (or any Quicktime version older than version 7). Another fix (described earlier (...)

  Castle at Brickworld 2011
 
This info has been on classic-castle.com and the Brickworld website for a while, but I figured I ought to post here too, just in case. If this is your first time reading this, and you're thinking, "Aaaah! There's only a couple of weeks left before (...)

  Re: How would you do it?
 
(...) You can use many lights, and still have a single shadow by making all lights but one 'shadowless' (a modifier to the POV light description). I often put a (not too bright) shadowless light at the same position as the camera, to make sure (...) (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: How would you do it?
 
It looks to me like each model / row of models was rendered in POV-Ray individually and then PhotoShopped together. Probably removed any reflections when combined on to one image. Scott (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: How would you do it?
 
(...) Hi Larry, I'm not much of a POV expert, but it looks to me like Jeroen used a single light source (I only see one shadow per model). I'd guess the light source is very far away (to simulate sunlight) because all the shadows cast proportionate (...) (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  May
 
Wow; looks like I missed May. So, a quick recap of May: We decided to recreate Rice Park in St. Paul, MN, complete with The St. Paul Library, The Landmark Center, and, of course, the Ordway Theater. I've already nearly completed the library; just a (...) (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, FTX)
 
  How would you do it?
 
A long time ago, Jeroen kindly rendered this image for me in POVRay (URL) the source got lost. Now I need it much much larger so I'm trying to recreate it. I am all the way there (all models positioned right, etc) except for the lighting/shadows. (...) (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.cad.ray)  
 
  Re: Asking for RIS 2.0 patch under Windows XP
 
I know what the answer to this one is! I solved the "A critical error has occurred" problem with Robotics Invention System 2.0 by uninstalling QuickTime and installing the QuickTime version from the RIS 2.0 disk. Don't forget to delete the (...) (13 years ago, 2-Jun-11, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: new gear? - Column Gear
 
(...) Funny, if not utterly useful... (...) I guess it might mesh with good old 2877 'Brick 1 x 2 with Grille' (URL) as gear rack. (...) If it works (I have no column gear to test), 2877 shall be called the Gear Rack with Two Studs ;) Philo xfuted (...) (13 years ago, 31-May-11, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.technic, FTX)

  Maersk Train in Australian stores?
 
Just wondering if anyone has seen this in any Australian store? Preferably in Brisbane? I know Myer has had the steam train around sale times, but I thin that was about 12 months after it was released as an exclusive to the Lego webshop. (13 years ago, 30-May-11, to lugnet.trains)
