  META commands ??? (was "Re: new part - 71014 Castle Greatsword")
 
(notice "follow-up")... (...) Well, I wasn't actually trying to _force_ anyone who wants to use this to use color code # 383 (and only that one), I was just assuming that someone who may be somewhat forgetful (like, for instance, _ME_) :-P might (...)

  Re: More MPD
 
(...) This seems similar to the recursive MPD problem. At least with the lich.dat example the files weren't really recursive. It was just a matter of the ring2.dat file in the local MPD scope supplanting the ring2.dat from the global (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  CAD Newbie Questions...

  YAL: Yet Another Loader :)  [DAT]
 
I don't know if this little vehicle would be any good at actually loading stuff, but it can at least carry little things around. If someone has a better idea for arms, please share.

I've been having this same problem too. Turning off the computer, waiting a while, then turning it back on had no effect. If it makes any difference, I'm running Win98 too. --Calvin Walton (...) <snip> (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad)

I'm glad to see this part done so soon. I thought a piece this detailed would take longer. What tools did you do this? My compliments to the chef :) Travis Dickinson P.S. You should get the idea with that last comment. (25 years ago, 21-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
