(...) partsref (...) difference (...) I was able to lay my hands on 5 ClrDkBlue parts and all are marked 6259. And the grey ones on my Y-wing are 6218. IIRC the UFO quarter saucers used different mould numbers for the clear and opaque versions of (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I am trying to render a DAT with a universal technic joing, 90.dat and a 24 tooth crown technic gear, 3650a.dat. POV-Ray chokes at the line that includes "lg-0090.inc" which is not present in the lgeo directory. I cannot find that file anywhere. The (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)

For a project I am working on, I need a picture of a datapad (which I posted to .models) with text displayed on its screen (and I don't mean a perfect front view). I rendered the model in POV-Ray, but have no idea of how to get the text on it, (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)
