  Re: L3P / POVRay material questions
 
(...) Thanks. :-, That's pretty much what I was doing (actually just using "ambient AMB * 3") -- but while the color becomes more "illuminating" of itself, it doesn't cast much light onto neighboring pieces. Is there a way to do this as well? (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  L3P / POVRay material questions
 
Hey all, While being fairly decent at LDrawing stuff, I'm still banging my head against some of the nuances of POVRay.

  Re: The Artemis Project
 
Karim, I happen to like the look of the user interface. It definitely has the "Adobe" look and feel. It also looks like the best interface I have seen, although it looks like it adds a little to the learning curve. Of course, added power comes at (...)

  Re: Idea for a new feature to help rotation of parts in Ldraw Cad software
 
I this is a very good ideia, which I have also been researching due to LSim. Basically it's a good ideia for two main reasons: 1 - it allows for an easyer/faster placement of axel/axis connected parts, so it's good for editing and model authoring. 2 (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Idea for a new feature to help rotation of parts in Ldraw Cad software
 
Perhaps what is meant is to add an additional method of rotating parts... In addition to having the ability to rotate in the X, Y and Z directions, some parts would have an additional axis of rotation, in which you could rotate them, REGARDLESS of (...) (24 years ago, 24-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad)
