 CAD / *17440 (-20)
  Sounds good, however... (from an LDRAW neophyte)
 
FORWARD: Please accept my comments in the civil spirit in which they were intended, and not an attempt to start some sort of conflict. I asked some very tough questions because the proposal seemed to advocate it. This is also a somewhat long (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Question on transparent printed parts
 
Earlier today, I posted a 1x6 brick with the text "Shell" printed on it. I also have a version of this piece that is printed on a clear 1x6. And I'm trying to figure out how to model that in LDraw. Is there any way to control the alpha level of a (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Parts needed
 
Hey ya parts authors, I confess that yes, I own a few Town Jr. sets. There. *That's* out of the way. Razz away, but in a separate thread please. ;-) I'm looking for someone to create the following part from <set:6474> (1): 30394 - Bulldozer scoop (...)

  New Part: 3009P59.DAT: Brick 1 x 6 with Shell text  [DAT]
 
Here is another vintage part dating from the 70s. I have a picture at: (URL) picked p59 because it appears to be totally unused and lands right next to the Shell logo (p60 on the 1x2 and torso). If there is reason to use a different pattern ID, (...) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Whoops (was: New Part: 3010p20s.dat: Brick 1 x 4 with Town Car Black Grill and Side Stripes)
 
Whoops- I just discovered that Tore Eriksson already redid this piece (without side stripes). He actually went to the trouble of using disc and ring primitives to do the corners. His vertical positioning of the printing is also slightly different, (...) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Question on (unneeded?) lines in printed parts
 
(...) Type 2 lines should not be used to outline the decorated areas on printed parts, so their use in 3010p06 is incorrect. To improve the look of the part when rendered by some of the older LCAD software, it is acceptable to define type 2 lines (...) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LCAD/LDraw.org Formal Organization
 
There's been occasional discussion about formalizing the LEGO-style CAD fan organization. Although an informal organization usually serves us pretty well, there are some things an informal group can not do, such as deal well with keeping a treasury, (...)

  Re: LDraw MOTM winner for February 2001
 
(...) Amnon, First of all congatulations! I have a couple of questions about your model: 1. Are the 9V motors in it functional or did you use them solely for easthetic purpose? 2. I really like the hot-rod cars and would like to build one. Any (...) (24 years ago, 2-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Thank you very much everyone! When I saw the models this month, I was worried I wouldn't have much of a chance, but I am glad to have been chosen.

  Re: Question on (unneeded?) lines in printed parts
 
(...) It's a backward compatibility issue: a. These lines help to identify the various printed pieces in Ledit, which does show the parts as wireframes only. b. In a Ldraw render, it prevents the background color bits "eating up" the pattern color (...) (24 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
