  Re: New Construction Toy In LDraw Format!
 
(...) Probably. I re-uploaded it in binary mode now, so it should work... (...) Nasty links to local files... Try it now. Thanks, --Ryan (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Need info help
 
BTW - every time I try to cross-post, I must be doing something wrong cause it doesn't go through. Where's the FAQ's on this? Darn it all, someone else DID model the round shield. And here I thought it be a good first project for me (besides just (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: LDGLite bug report (yes, one more)
 
(...) This could be the ldlite large MPD bug again. The ldlite parser has a problem with MPD files if it runs out of cache. I increased the size for ldglite, but it may not be enough for Datsville. You could try increasing it some more and (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  RE: Perspective in LDGLite (Was: About the great datsville)
 
(...) POV-Ray uses "up" and "right" to determine the aspect ratio of the viewing window (which results in non-square pixels if the the camera ratio and the render ratio don't match. I believe the use of either "angle" or "direction" is important in (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  2358p03.dat - Baseplate with plain straight runway  [DAT]
 
I grabbed "2358p02.dat" and simplified the pattern to three lines, which as far as I remember is the only decoration on the plain straight runway pieces (see <set:6597> for an image). Play well, Jacob PS: "2358p02.dat" should probably be renamed to (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  LDGLite bug report (yes, one more)
 
Don: If you try to render Datsville in perspective: ldglite -j -s0.1 town.mpd you will notice some very strange blue lines going from the centre of the window to the blue castle out in the left-side background. They shouldn't be there, and I am (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDGLite bug report/feature request
 
Don: Some times, mostly when rendering large files, LDGLite reports syntax errors in lines with totally unreasonable line numbers. 1) Why? 2) Could you print out the content of the line as well, so I can try to find the offending lines (if there are (...)

  Shrinking ldraw unofficial part list
 
I was looking at the unofficail parts list that was created over at ldraw.org a couple of months ago. (URL) appears to be getting smaller. A piece of mine that was on the list is now gone. Are the parts being processed? Is there going to be an (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)

  Perspective in LDGLite (Was: About the great datsville)
 
Don: (...) Good to know. (...) I think they are called "look_at" and "location" in POV-Ray. (...) It would be fine if you could make something equivalent to: camera { sky <0, 0, 1> up <0, 1, 0> location <0, 0, 528> look_at <0, 0, 0> } in POV-Ray. I (...)

  RE: POVray orthographic optimization
 
(...) Hmm, maybe your lights are too close to the model? Move them further away, and brighten them if necessary. If that doesn't help, try posting your code for the lights, camera, etc, and a sample output image, and I'll see if I can figure out (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: About the great datsville
 
(...) It looks like both "-j" and "-J" turn on the perspective projection from the command line. Otherwise it defaults to the orthographic projection. However since this is apparently undocumented in the readme.txt file I reserve the right to change (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)  
 
  Re: Updated Datsville MPD file
 
(...) There were some errors in the file, but now I have written a (partial) syntax checker in Perl for handling this kind of problems in the future. The two guys/gals who already have downloaded the file will have to do it once again. Sorry! Play (...) (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Updated Datsville MPD file
