  Problems with 3298.dat?
 
In MLCad, 3298.dat is missing a triangle in the middle of the slope at the top where it meets the horizontal top face. Anyone else see this? I'm most definately not a part author, but could anyone take a look at this? Thanks, Ben ===...=== Ben (...) (25 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Line of error
 
I see that missing triangle also, usually on 3298.dat. It renders fine in POVRay though. Lots of ldraw parts have issues like this when you convert them to .dxf and import them into 3d studio max also. Backface cull only does so much. Bummer. -- (...)
