  Re: 30086 (and 30087) 'Rubber' Dinghy
 
(...) I had this same problem when I first put this mpd in my /parts directory. Apparently, MLCad does not like mpd files in the /parts directory. I had to separate the mpd into its subparts. Since I'm more picky than some, I put all the subparts (...) (23 years ago, 12-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  POV-RAY / MPD File Question
 
To All, I have went into the whole ML-CAD / POV-RAY deep end for my continuing war pages. I started to use ML-Cad to draw them into dat files, and it is great. Now, I have figured out how to use the L3P Add on, and POV-RAY itself. Now my only (...) (23 years ago, 11-May-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Part Authoring FAQ (was Re:Some submission guidelines...)
 
(...) Oops, sorry about that. Really all this info should be added to the FAQ on www.ldraw.org. All the FAQ says about submitting is "When you have finished the part, you should check it for technical mistakes with l3p -check, and then send it to (...)

  Jessiman family to attend Brickfest 2001

  Some submission guidelines (was: Re: 6002 mpd version, now I think I got it.)
 
In lugnet.cad.dat.parts, Don Heyse wrote something that triggered me to write at length: (...) Posting to lugnet.cad.dat.parts as an MPD is cool. It's better than the alternative (posting several messages, possibly pointing links to (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: LGEO and colours
 
(...) I get the same problems. I think it has to do with l3p not reconising it as an "official" ldraw color, but as a homemade/custom color. I do not know how to fix it though. l3p Does this to me with trans orange as well, so it is not just l3p (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Demo of part manipulation in isometric view

  Re: Demo of part manipulation in isometric view
 
(...) I like it! Ultimately I suppose you'd have a toggle for finer-detail motion, but as a demo I think it's quite cool. Would it be possible in the final product to rotate the scene, or even to change the centerpoint of the view? In any case, I'll (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Demo of part manipulation in isometric view
 
Will this new program have the ability to move objects both in the iso.. view and other views that MLCAD currenlty allows. This would be best! (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LGEO and colours
 
I've noticed that if I use tan in my models the parts actually come out using the default colour choice set using l3p (greyish if not defined). I've got the complete lgeo download and the #15 update. Anyone else managed to fix this? Or is something (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: 30086 (and 30087) 'Rubber' Dinghy
 
I'm having a little trouble loading this as a part in MLCAD. When I load it on its own it's okay but when you use it in a Model the bow moves away from the side ribs. Does anyone else have this problem. Other than that it looks good. (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Thanks for the feedback, Dan. I'll see what I can do about straightening these parts out. Now, on to the next step: managing feedback and updates to files. :) Steve (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: 6002 mpd version, now I think I got it.

I was under the impression that you can submit them all as one MPD file and then someone in charge takes it apart and puts the individual files in the right directories (as long as the MPD file contains the paths).

  Re: 6002 mpd version, now I think I got it.
 
(...) Actualy I think it would be better to submit the primitives seperately so they can be used on other models as well, plus it makes the file smaller which was why I split the piece up in the first place.
