  Re: I can't run L3P
 
(...) You must have a MS-DOS Command Prompt window open before you can issue the L3P command. Here is what I have done as a setup for L3P: Search for cmd.exe (probably in your Windows\System32 directory, it is the program that opens the Command (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDraw.exe
 
Okay, I'v been a user of "LDraw" for several months now, and yet I haven't figured out how to run LDraw.exe. All I get is the DOS window saying, "your pop-up program is ready to run. When you have finished using it, press ctrl+c to close this window (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: some thoughts on ldraw parts
 
(...) THIS user of LDraw tools considers decorated torsos of GREAT value. I only wis they were all done or that there was an easier way to do what are essentially bitmaps tiled onto a flat surface. Too bad the LDraw standard didn't allow for tiling (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  I can't run L3P
 
Hi, Lars, I recently downloaded L3P and went through the instructions, setting the paths for L3P and LDraw. But when I type in the command C:\> l3p car.dat it says, "This program cannot be run in DOS mode". Do you know what I can do to get it (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: some thoughts on ldraw parts
 
(...) [snip] (...) Speaking for me personaly, I happen to like it, as it is now. I want the part library so complete as it possibly can be, and I want it sitting on my own hard disk. We should also remember that our programs are very internationaly (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)
 
  personalized arragement of part library
 
Hello all, I vaguely remember that in one of the cad programs it was possible to make your own custom arragement for the part library. I don't remember what program. Would someone please be so kind to remind me where such a thing was possible, and (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: some thoughts on ldraw parts
 
(...) Please don't misunderstand me here. Trust me, I as much as anyone depend on these parts authors. What it comes down to is with a rewpository if you really want the minifig torso with the zipper pattern slightly cocked to the left with the (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: "Step" mode for MLCad?
 
(...) Not really viable for me. I'm a mouser and I don't have the keyboard memory space to remember LEdit commands, although I have lots of visual memory space left to remember what MLCad icons mead. Plus running two different editors against the (...) (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: *** LDView v0.9 Released ***
 
(...) Well, it looks like you caught me on that one. I have not read the read-me file... :-) I will get to it right away. I didn't even think about using the right mouse button. Ooops! Thank you for reminding me to read it. Paul (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Architecture project 2
 
Right now, this is a non-LEGO project, so please FUP .o-t.fun Hey all, I'm working on an artist's studio with living quarters for my second architecture class project.

  Re: Does this part exist?
 
(...) You're right, but we don't have to add keywords to *every* file. Just the ones that are hard to find. The hinge-rod-with-end-stud is definitely one of the part files that needs keywords added. Steve (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: some thoughts on ldraw parts
 
Here's a list of the types of files in the ldraw\parts directory: General parts - like 3001.dat, the 2x4 brick. Components - pieces only released by TLC as part of an assembly, like 3149.dat, the base for the classic 2x5 plate-hinge. Composite parts (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Does this part exist?

  Re: "Step" mode for MLCad?
 
(...) Having this particular setting shortcutted (via a button on some toolbar, or via a cntl key sequence) would be very handy indeed. I find of the settings, this is the thing i turn on and off the most. I am OK with having to do a cntl-r to get (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: some thoughts on ldraw parts
 
(...) Don't be disrespecting the part authors. They all choose what parts to work on. They voluntarily, without compensation, contribute their time and effort to the LCAD Part Library. Which provides a valuable resource to *all* AFOLs. People who (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)
