  Re: Parts Update?
 
(...) Regrettably, the only way I know of to get any of the DAT files posted but not yet packaged and released, is to hunt for them one-by-one here at LUGNet.CAD... :-( This is one of the reasons I was so thankful that Tore was doing the Parts (...)

i thought you just had to multiply your matrix with something like 1 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 1 this would make Y 2 times as long. Not?

  Re: Parts Update?
 
(...) Which raises the question (for me anyway) -- where can I get these parts before they're voted upon? You know, strictly for preview purposes only...honest. ;-) Cheers, - jsproat (24 years ago, 24-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Parts Update?
 
(...) M'sieur Tim, I thank you for concerning yourself about the well-being of the parts authors. I, however, am one that actually tries to design new elements *during* his work hours (because I'm usually too spread out otherwise). As for the person (...)

  Re: Solution concerning MLCAD colors (was Re: Question about MLCAD colors)
 
(...) Tim, Color 24 in MLCAD was purposely made to be different that Dark Gray (8), the same way Color 16 is to be different from Light Gray (7). The problem is that it tends to make it them darker than both colors [7 & 8], leaving the Edge Color at (...) (24 years ago, 24-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Reiterate: How to make a squish matrix?
 
(...) Whoops! Thank you Rui for helping me straighten this out -- I'm not doing this in LDraw. I'm just looking for a way to do this with a 4x4 matrix. My target app is POVRay, but I figured this question would be generic enough for people in the (...) (24 years ago, 24-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Baureihe 52  [DAT]
 
Inspired by Shaun Sullivan's fantastic BR52 model I have managed to build a model of the same locomotive myself. Compared to Shaun's model mine is not intended to run over curved tracks.

  Re: Solution concerning MLCAD colors (was Re: Question about MLCAD colors)
 
In addition to this I personally feel that the grey edge colour for black elements is too dark, it works for one black element but when you have a black model the joins become nearly invisible. Is it posible to create user defined custom colours (...) (24 years ago, 24-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  How to make a squish matrix?
 
Hey all, Is there a way I can make a matrix that will "squish" an object? For example, I have a cylinder I want to squish into a truntcated cone. I could have sworn this was possible (I thought this was how perspective was rendered, by squishing the (...) (24 years ago, 24-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Where can I get a part number for a patterned piece?

No insult or complaint was implied by my message. 'What gives?' is just my way of being curious. I've been gone for the the last few month due to the fact I'm in the U.S. Navy and was just wondering why. If you find "what gives" disheartening I (...)

This has come up enough times, after a long enough time, that perhaps some mention of this should go onto the ldraw.org front page (just after the "Contribute" blurb), or on the parts update page, or both.
