  My New House!  [DAT]
 
Here's a model (first version) of my new home. Because the front door is higher up compared to the cellar door, it looks a little strange. Some landscaping with green parts around the house is yet to be done. 0 Tore Eriksson's House 0 Name: (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  MLCAD exploded view?
 
Can MLCAD do an exploded view of an already existing .mpd model? If not, is there any software that can? Thanks, Rand (23 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) Judging from your statement above, I'd say that your problem is your user agent. If the user agent decides to line wrap quoted text, it should make sure to retain the quote symbols, usually ">". My user agent refills the quoted paragrahps to (...)

(...) Actually, the problem seems to be one where the L3PAO outputted file doesn't contain the complete paths to the parts in the LGEO library, this causes POV to bomb on each and every include statement.

You can also use Lars C Hassing's L3P to convert a .DAT file into POV-Ray (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)

Certain pieces don't seem to work, hence the lack of the 24-tooth crown gear in my pictures. <snip> (...) <snip> (...) I also (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)
