  Re: Animation script (again...)
 
(...) Yeah I saw that. Maybe I should look one more time at that option. (...) Yes. But I'm not sure L3P supports 0 CLEAR... But that's an issue to look at later. I guess I'll have to make (at least) two output options. For the moment, I use 0 (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Is this part 4459 or part 3673 ?
 
I believe both parts are the same, cad wise... physically, however, the "pin with friction" has small ridges that create the 'friction'. I believe there's 8 small ones on each pin side... 16 total. You're correct, the "pin with friction" has slots, (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Is this part 4459 or part 3673 ?
 
I have a part which I believe is 4459 "Technic Pin with Friction", but could be 3673 "Technic Pin". From looking at the partsref pictures, I still cannot tell for sure. This pin came from <set:8520> (which I am trying to inventory). The actual part (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Animation script (again...)
 
(...) Hmm, I don't know much about animation scripts. Your approach looks ok to me. (...) Well, POV-Ray does support animations. So you could L3P your world & models, then use POV-Ray commands to combine the separate files into a single animation. (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: 6980 Galaxy Commander
 
That would be one way. The easiest way would be to save the entire 'dat' as a single *.MPD file. If you're using MLCad, it will open the MPD and automatically open the sub-model DATs in it. To EDIT those submodels, you do have to break the file down (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.models.sets)

  Re: Parts lister?
 
(...) Yup... and the new version of ML-CAD has the option to include submodels or not (and labels pieces with submodel name), separate by step, ignore colour, and sort by any field, which is really cool! Cheers, Heather -- Heather Patey Pirate Wench (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: RCX 1.5 and 2.0 Bricks

  Parts lister?
 
I seem to recall a program that could chew up a DAT model and spit out a list of component parts with names and number used. Does anyone know of this program, or who wrote it, or where to find it? Dave! (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: RCX 1.5 and 2.0 Bricks
 
I could do this without much trouble, but I don't have an RCX 1.5. It looks to me from the Mindstorms site that the back side is just flat, but the RCX they show says RCX 1.0 on it. Does your RCX 1.5 say "1.5" on it? Are there any other physical (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Another question from a CAD Newbie
 
(...) Get Jacob Sparre Andersen's buildmpd utility (there should be a link to it from (URL)). It's a command line program, but it will combine all your subfiles in one shot. Or use MLCad's import functions to add each file to the master. Steve (23 years ago, 20-Jul-01, to lugnet.cad)
