  Re: MPD spec
 
(...) OK! (...) Where is that documented ? Does it have parameters ? I personally, never heard about that Meta command ! Does a regular (extended) .DAT also suport this or is just an MPD specific meta command ? I think it's the later. [...SNIP. (...) (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: MPD spec
 
Steve: (...) Yes. I think that the right format for these alternative uses is gzipped tar files. There is Open Source code available for reading this format, and there is no need to go through a specification and implementation process. Play well, (...)

  Re: MPD spec
 
(...) I think part of the problem is that MPD files are currently being used differently than they were originally intended. Rui's ideas would benefit a lot of people trying to make use of MPD. But these changes would defeat current uses of the (...) (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: User POV substitutions in L3P
 
(...) Yes, definitely. What kind of commands do you add to the LDraw files? My concern would be how to hook up your stuff with the standard LDraw parts library, so we wouldn't have to maintain two separate sets of code. Steve (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Minifigs
 
(...) Have you installed the complete LDraw package? Without it, you won't get much of anything. (URL) After you get that installed, most programs should go. I don't know of too many custom, un-official minifig parts. Unofficial parts are not (...) (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)

I too would pay $10 to $20 for the disk, If just to support the cause. I really appreciate that I got so many quality tools for free in the first place. -Chuck (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  .datFest Update
 
Greetings Just thought I'd give a little update on 'progress' on .datFest. In reality, there hasn't been any. The last place I talked to for sponsorship/hosting was the Boston Museum of Science. The good news is they said they would look into it, (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad.datfest, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) So are you available to help define a better/improved Multi Part Dat format, not necessarilly with MPD extension ? By using your experience with the current MPD format ? including the splitter and Builder ! What would you improve ? Do you (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Minifigs
 
Hmm...MLCAD lists them under "minifig". Have you made sure you downloaded the "complete.exe" file with all the parts? (I don't mean to sound condescending here, just trying to cover all the bases.) Ben Vaughan ---...--- This space reserved for a new (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Minifigs
 
Hmm... true enough. I hadn't really given it much thought. All the same, for those starting out, (even those of us that aren't 8) ), LDraw and MLCAD offer a fairly simple solution. Making such an absolute statement sure was a goof on my part though. (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: User POV substitutions in L3P

  Re: User POV substitutions in L3P
 
(...) Hm, he uses a special "rugged" texture on the slopes, to give them the correct look. (This can be done in L3P too, with some manual adjustments to the POV file.) Also, he seems to have two definitions for each part, one transparent and one (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
