(...) Ummmm. I think 7 holes is correct. I think standard Technic Beams have holes that are equal to... Holes = Studs - 1 With the exception of the 1x1 with hole and 1x2 with 2 holes. So. 8 Studs - 1 = 7 holes. Count'em, if I'm wrong I will eat my (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw FilTEr
 
Thank you, Micheal. I am not following you completely, but never mind. I'm glad you like it. Hopefully, this weekend I'll have the time to improve to filTEr, with separate output files and more. Thanks, /Tore (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: The first video showing a datsville building
 
I've surfed around the web and found a few utilities that allow you to record flight paths. It would be cool to convert them somehow to work with LDraw/POVray. I'm looking into it... Also, I've created a few images of scenes I've made using 3D (...) (23 years ago, 31-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad)

I've updated the image. (URL) I find out, is very limited because it's a demo version. The save option has been disabled, and there a limit has been placed on the size of the world file.
