  Re: Tyre 28 x 70 (Technic low profile tyre)
 
(...) Thanks. I use solidworks to model the parts, and my converter stl2dat to produce .dat files More details on my site (URL) Klein A Mindstorms fan. (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: LDraw History - here's one for the old timers in the group....
 
(...) [snip] (...) Yeah, I was in there - part 30055, Fence spindled 1 x 4 x 2 was my first. Followed by 2593, Wheel Hard-Plastic Medium (was that the first use of subpart files?).

  LDGLite bug report: Setting of z clipping plane without any effect
 
I have played around with running LDGLite as a pure command line tool by redirecting its output to a virtual X server (Xvfb). This works fine once you figure out how to generate the appropriate orientation matrices to compensate for unusual aspect (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Parts Tracker: Alpha Version of Parts Release
 
(...) Umm, I'd say yes. Especially in KEYWORDS entries. I can sort of imagine that we *might* need to put 'train car' in a part's title, but I can't think of a specific instance of that. Are you asking this because of something specific on the parts (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDGLite bug report: Segmentation fault on Linux/Alpha
 
I managed to compile LDGLite for Linux/Alpha, but every time I run the program it aborts with a segmentation fault just after it has opened its drawing window. I suspect - as I have written elsewhere - that this is due to a mismatch in the size of C (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Using LDGLite with Xvfb
 
Dan: (...) LDGLite still seg-faults on Linux/Alpha. I have been playing with LDGLite and Xvfb on a Linux/IA32 system this weekend. I suppose that the source of the segmentation fault is a mismatch in the size of C integers and pointers on the Alpha (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

  Re: Using LDGLite with Xvfb
 
(...) Making the screen even wider was not a practical solution. There is a screen width limit somewhere between 2048 and 4096 pixels. Now I simply made Xvfb work with a 2048 by 2048 pixel display: Xvfb :9 -screen 2048x2048x24 -ac This gives (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: Tyre 28 x 70 (Technic low profile tyre)
 
Hi Marc, thanks a lot for creating these wheels (and many other wheels and tyres, which aren´t official by now). This helps me a lot by finalizing my own creations. I do not know HOW you create those dat-files, but in my opinion the results are (...) (23 years ago, 10-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  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: 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)
