  "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
Lutz Uhlmann and I are happy and proud to announce the release of a new large set of the LGEO parts and the supporting L3P. Well, more than seven years since last release of L3P... what can I say? During that time I have had several periods with (...) (16 years ago, 30-Sep-08, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray) !!

  Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
Woot!! Woot!! Thanks! Does this affect L3PAO? Or does L3PAO still work OK with the new L3P? Did you add any new "-xxxx" that L3PAO does not have I guess is the main question. Ahui (16 years ago, 4-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
(...) L3PAO should still work with the new L3P. I have added several new options, which L3PAO obviously cannot set until it is updated. /Lars (16 years ago, 5-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) OK, good idea. You mean the %APPDATA% environment variable ? Where should it go in the search order ? Like this: The LDRAWINI environment variable %APPDATA%\LDraw.ini %USERPROFILE%\LDraw.ini %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\LDraw.ini LDrawDir\LDraw.ini (...) (16 years ago, 5-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Wow, Lars! looks like I have a ton of work ahead of me getting the GUI to accommodate all the new options. I'll get started this week. Jeff (16 years ago, 6-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  L3PAO Update Status (Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930")
 
(...) I've been working the last couple of days to update L3PAO so that it will accommodate all of Lars' enhancements to L3P. It isn't fully-tested yet, but I figured I'd give everyone a look at the interface changes. I think I've incorporated all (...) (16 years ago, 9-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
(...) Hi, very nice work, thanks for everything :-) I invoke l3p using OMake build scripts and the many command line switches it offers are fantastic. I have one question about LGEO: The part "Cockpit 4 x 11 x 2 _2/3", 6058.DAT, seems to be placed (...) (16 years ago, 19-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
(...) No, of course not. LGEO parts are intended to have the same orientation and position as the LDRAW parts. Thanks for your note, I fixed this. The new file will come with the next update. to make a quick fix, open lg_6058.inc and change lines (...) (16 years ago, 21-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) The info you refer to is only about the new stuff. I normally include a mini man page (l3p.txt) with the executables, but this time the beta release was meant primarily to old users. The next release will include doc again, probably in HTML. (...) (16 years ago, 30-Oct-08, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
Awesome! I totally missed this. A couple of requests: 1) An option to search for and "#include" L3P-generated parts instead of writing them all to the POV file. 2) Replace mesh objects with mesh2. Thanks for all the hard work! -Mike (16 years ago, 29-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)

Does anyone know of if "fastrad.inc" is compatible with the L3P 1.4 output? Thanks. -Mike (16 years ago, 2-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: "LGEO" and "L3P v1.4 BETA 20080930"
 
One additional suggestion I'd like to make is to, instead of writing the same data repeatedly over and over for each part, store the part data (matrix transformations and materials) in arrays and then traverse at the end of a file using loops. (...) (16 years ago, 3-Dec-08, to lugnet.cad)
