  Part Needed for Project
 
I have MLCAD v1.99 and I am trying to find some rubber band parts, I believe that there would be at least 3, one that is just round, one that would be sort of squashed in the middle, and one that would simulate going from a small pully to a large (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: L3PAO 1.3.1 is up
 
(...) Okay, I've got a problem. With L3PAO 3.1, it finds LEdit no problem and finds POV-Ray no problem. But as soon as I install 3.1.1 and run it, it no longer can find either and when I try to select the correct directory where LEdit is located (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  bryce and ldraw
 
Is it possible to get an image from Ldraw to Bryce3d? I tried 3dwin, but it's dat export ignores colors, so the image is gray. I also tried the DXF export, but it was unable to export transparencies and would not let me change the materials on (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  L3PAO 1.3.1 is up
 
Working in conjunction with Lars, the new L3PAO is up, supporting all of his new features in L3P 1.3. (URL) this is short (working on another coding project, non-lego). The help file gives a quick rundown and Lars' readme for L3P 1.3 is the best (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: .dat files for legos
 
I asked because I started to build up my .dat files this weekend on the exisiting sets I have. I figured that I should make electronic instructions of my sets in case I ever "lost/burn/destoryed" the original instructions. The naming issue of files (...) (24 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)

  .dat files for legos
 
Does anyone know if there is a place either on lugnet or the web where the building instructions (in .dat format) for all or most of the lego sets that lego has made and we have on the lugnet set search are? Has anyone undertaken this project? (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: DAT to GIF/JPG/EPS
 
(...) The code at sgi has an option to sort them by depth. It's not perfect though, and it uses a lot of memory since you have to push ALL the triangles through the feedback buffer before you sort. That's a lot of triangles and postscript is quite (...) (24 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)

  L3P v1.3 20010120
 
As you can read in "The motive to L3P" it was Lutz Uhlmann's LGEO library (or rather its incompleteness) that inspired me to get started in the LDRAW business. It resulted in my L3 (Lego+Ldraw+Lars) project, which has spun off L3P and L3Lab. The (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray) !!

(...) Where does hidden triangle removal happen in this process? Or do you count on getting them in proper back-to-front order? I'm experimenting with a postscript renderer plug-in since about a week ago. -Erik (24 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Double side 8 pin plate?
 
Has anyone heard of a plate that has pins on both sides? My Megabloks has them and I thought lego did as well. Joe (24 years ago, 20-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: DAT to GIF/JPG/EPS
