  Re: The geometry of minifigs
 
(...) Da, you are correct. I'd go with the (14,0) shoulder position -- it has better (hidden) precision. 14.345 is derived, as you pointed out, and it is rounded. Does LGEO have the minifig torso? It'd be so nice to have truly rounded edges and (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Minifig Torso With Wolfpack Pattern
 
Oh, BTW, something else. When viewing this DAT file as well as the one for the Black Falcon torso, you've got the same bowties as the ones I noticed for the shields. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorderly Yours ;-) Franklin (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: The geometry of minifigs
 
(...) Ok, thanks. I understand. It's not interesting for me (in this setting) to know the angles and offsets of the _true_ minifig. What is of interest is the values that were used to _model_ the minifig. This is because what I want to do is to pose (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) minifig scale battle droids from the LEGO System Star Wars theme. Of course, I am also very happy to see that you are working on the larger version you showed me above. Great work! Fredrik (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Minifig Torso With Wolfpack Pattern
 
(...) My fault, the part file I have is p05.dat. I guess I copied the line from the falcon torso & forgot to change the number. (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: Some Words To BFC
 
(...) I can't speak for the other programs but if you allow a part to have CCW and CW faces in any OpenGL program, it's going to be slower (but as LeoCAD's library is pre-processed than it won't be a problem). If you have some parts BFC compliant (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Some Words To BFC
 
(...) I agree that an automatic process might not always work 100% but it can make parts almost perfect and with only a small effort you'll be able to completely fix them. (...)

  Re: Some Words To BFC
 
(...) If you use a 3D card then the speed increase from BFC becomes negligible, I've tried to activate BFC on LeoCAD and it didn't show a big difference with the current library. Keep in mind that the current cards (except the newer GeForce) have a (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Good news for Autocad part developers ! My stl2dat converter now reads binary stl files. It recognises binary files automatically. I also introduced a new option to set the origin, because some cad-cam programs can only produce stl files where all (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: The geometry of minifigs
 
(...) No, the part is authored with an angle of 9.782. The (x,y) values of the lower facet of the shoulder is (14.345,2) and that at the waist is (19,29) - hence 4.655/27. Or alternatively the top of the torso is (14,0), giving 5/29 - the same (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Are anybody working on the Star Wars Battle Droid arms?
 
Are anybody currently working on the Star Wars Battle Droid arms? I would like to use these in a model, and would be quite happy with some simple mock ups. Thanks! Fredrik (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: The geometry of minifigs
 
(...) Thanks. Can I safely assume that the author used 10 degrees when modeling the part? BTW: This is just what I find unuserfriendly about the parts library: You had to reverse engineer the part to find the angle. I'm sure the information I asked (...)
