 | | New LDView screen saver mode
|
|
I don't include instructions in the release, but LDView 1.9.2 can now be used as a screen saver. This is still in the verification stage, and as such may lock/crash/reboot your computer, etc. (Note that it does none of these things on my computer.) (...) (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Yes, that's the info I'm looking for. Thanks, Travis (and Vincent, too). Related question (for the parts officials, I suppose): Are there any plans (even tentative) to move towards adding this sort of stuff to official parts? Or is the current (...)

(...) I don't know if any official parts do it, but it is possible. Based on an earlier lugnet.cad.ray message, you do this: 0 L3P IFNOTPOV (regular ldraw code goes here) 0 L3P ELSEPOV 0 (POV-Ray code goes here, commented-out) 0 L3P ENDPOV You can (...)

I seem to recall that some curved parts have separate definitions in the parts file itself for POV-Ray to render them better. But I can't find any. Is this actually possible? Do such parts exist? Is there a "better" way (ie through L3P) to get (...) (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
