  zoom function
 
Is there a way to set up MLCAD so that when I do a zoom in, say change from 100 percent view to 300 percent view, to have the view centered on the part that is currently selected? It is a minor thing, but something that i would like to be able to (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Macintosh LEGO CAD/LEGO Designer
 
Just in case any one is actually reading what I am writing... MLCad works fine with VPC 4.0 as long as my PBG3 (FireWire) (AKA Pismo) is plugged in. When I run unplugged, the computer freezes after a while. I wonder if the freezing has something to (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Add more lights, reposition the lights, and/or make the lights brighter. Brighter lights can be obtained by using color values greater than 1. I usually create one main bright light source and then add a few dimmer (and often shadowless) (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: New Render
 
Thanks for posting a link to that file again Bram, I had downloaded that file of yours before and had forgotten about it. It makes the colors look much better, in my opinion. Do you have any pointers for making the rendered images brighter? I seem (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: ldglite 0.9.1 (now with better LEdit emulation) err, maybe not...
 
I guess I should clarify this. The reason I'm asking for feedback is because I'm certain there are bugs in the software. The new LEdit emulation mode is a lot of new code. I need some help to find all the problems. Everyone has different hardware (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Macintosh LEGO CAD/LEGO Designer
 
Oops, I have to add to my previous comment. I am currently having problems running MLCad with VirtualPC 4.0. MLCad runs for a while and then my entire computer freezes. I will reinstall VPC and MLCad and see if that solves the problem. Chris (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jun-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.dacta)
 
  Re: Call for Action!!!
 
(...) I've figured out a relatively simple way of working with minifigs in a CAD scene. I copied 979.dat and 980.dat into the MODELS directory, and renamed them minifig_stand.dat and minifig_sit.dat.

  New Part - Technic timing wheel  [DAT]
 
I've been cadding the UCS X-wing fighter, and much to my surprise, the canopy piece HAD been modelled (somewhat complicated) but this part hadn't. It was pretty simple.
