(...) This was actually a misfeature, but it's a convoluted story to explain. I accidentally accomplished what I at first set out to do. :) It kinda looks like the car is decloaking. :) -Gary (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Niftyness :-) I set the image as my desktop wallpaper. Doesn't help that I run the same scree res and I think I have a window maximized when I look at it ;-) BTW - notice it appears James forgot the back right wheel on the car. I like the (...) (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  An interesting CAD image
 
(URL) image shows James Jessiman's car.dat file with every part marked as "selected" in GWCAD. The result is that the car resembles an auto magazine ad in which parts of the vehicle are displayed semi-translucent so callouts can be drawn to all the (...)

  Re: Postscript converter
 
(...) Yes, that's where I got stuck. If anyone knows a nice occlusion algorithm that solves this problem in vector space (without converting to raster) I could probably also use it to speed up the rest of ldglite as well. I'm hoping for an (...) (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Author key in ldraw.ini\[LDraw]
 
(...) Yes, there is. But the [LDraw Add-On] section should really be for stuff internal to LDAO, so we could discuss putting it somewhere else. Like [LDraw] or [New File Defaults], or something. Steve (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: LDraw on Linux
 
(...) Bad code? Ouch! ;-) I guess I'll have to fix the warnings. They're the same warnings I get so you're OK there. (...) Sorry, I've been away on vacation so I've missed most of this so far. I've never used SuSe so I don't know how much help I'll (...) (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)

Jaco: (...) It isn't on the SuSE CD's? I got it from (URL) those packages may be slightly too Red Hat specific. I'll include a complete list of the development and library packages on my system. It might help (but it could also just be confusing). (...) (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw on Linux
 
Hi Jacob! Thanks for all the information. You would not happen to know where I can get Mesa-devel? Does anyone else have LDGLite or other LDraw related programs running on Linux and can help me? Greetingz... Sjaacko (...) (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Author key in ldraw.ini\[LDraw]
 
Oh, is there already an Author key in the [LDraw Add-On] section? (I'm on holiday for the moment and can't check myself) If so, I can use that one instead. /Tore (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: BrickDraw3D 1.0 coming soon
 
You can send me bug reports! Please also report which version of the program: In the Finder, Get Info, tell me either the version number (you should get 0.2) or the Created date (however if not version 0.2 from 7/2/01 the bug report is uncertain...) (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw on Linux
 
Jaco: (...) The easiest way is probably to try to install a package named "Mesa-devel". If it complains something is most likely missing. (...) I'm afraid I don't know enough about Mesa/GLUT to help here. Jacob (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)

  How do I use MAYA or any other modelling program to create parts for MLCAD?
 
Hi, can anybody tell me how I can exchange files from different 3D modelling software to use as DAT files in MLCAD? Or where can I read about creating parts myself? Many thanks, Remko (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
