  Using LDGLite with Xvfb
 
I have experimented a bit with using Xvfb as X server for LDGLite. It seems to work, but there are some things to be aware of. I start Xvfb with the command: Xvfb :9 -screen 0 2048x1280x24 -ac "-ac" means that there is no access control. That's kind (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Updated Part 30117
 
(...) OK, I checked the part a bit more. If you look at line 568 in the file it's a quad, but it should be a triangle. The 4th point is the same as the 2nd point. I'm not sure why the l3 parser in ldglite doesn't convert it to a triangle during (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: carriage house / former hospital - Datsville
 
(...) It looks like you forgot to send the submodels! Since it looks like you are using MLCad, here is something that may help you. Go to the "multipart" menu and choose "import model." Choose one of the submodels (e.g. "center.dat")in the pop-up (...) (23 years ago, 13-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Careful what you wish for: clone LOTR blocks sighted
 
(...) Not only do I think that someone should build a mini-fig version(s), but also if the people are right, and the sets are substandard, then design a legoized LotR with a more realistic set-up. Benjamin Medinets (23 years ago, 13-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.cad)

  Re: Careful what you wish for: clone LOTR blocks sighted
 
(...) I think if 'they' have provided the instructions to thier models then we should make use of them somehow. Ok. Hands up anyone who thinks building a mini-fig version in ML-Cad will cause problems? Alex (23 years ago, 12-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.cad)

  Re: MPD files showing mixed up
 
Hi Jeroen, MLCad does currently not support including mpd's into other files! The result when doing it are uncontrolled. Alternativly you can extract all the files from the mpd and import them into another project. Regards, Michael (23 years ago, 13-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Re: Parts Tracker: Alpha Version of Parts Release
 
It seems the word Car is a little source of potential misunderstandings. To me, it has always been equal to automobiles like Ford and Opel and others on rubber wheels. Until LDraw.
