  Re: matching pattern numbers???
 
(...) That seems perfectly reasonable. (...) Cool! Thanks! :-) (...) [snip] (...) Very nicely done, sir! ;-) I've got some of the new (2002) 'figs, so would you mind if I give you more info for this list, or else use your info in a list of my own? (...)

  Re: Parts as volumes (instead of surfaces)
 
(...) Well, I can have a twisted mind sometimes. I know these moments when the best idea today, will just be plain stupid tomorrow. Thanks to Eric Olson for more precision: he used bounding boxes, not collisions. Also I still think, whereas higher (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Han Solo "gunbelt" hips/legs (was "matching pattern numbers???")

  Re: Modeling String
 
(...) Incidentally, I have considered it. But so far I have concluded that the mathematics are too complicated for an analytical solution. And I am a bit tired of programming numerical optimalization.. Fredrik (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)

I went with pattern number "4f", since "4b" has been taken by some other torso.

I've created a temporary webpage for LD4DModeler, in time you can download the beta there. The url is: (URL) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Parts as volumes (instead of surfaces)
 
(...) That was only bounding boxes (minus the studs). The piece in question was matched against all other pieces, any pieces in a line above or below were put into a list. In case one of them intersected the piece in question, a new place would be (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Enhancement request - File dialogs
 
I think the File dialogs could benefit from some improvement in how path is determined. This applies to at least export model and export submodels (in Multipart mode) Both default to the root of the C drive and don't remember last filepath selected. (...)

  Re: Parts as volumes (instead of surfaces)
 
(...) So stud4 would be decomposed into 16 trapezoidal prisms? That sounds like a fair amount of mark up. (...) Nod, true. But I'd rather decompose a 1x1 brick into 6 volumes (4 walls, 1 top and the stud) than 46 (one volume for each surface (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: panel with round windows (for 10020) updated
 
(...) I stand corrected- I didn't realize that L3P did that. I just checked through the text file and found the reference to it. So yes, using primitives is a better way to go. Ugh, and now I have to rethink how I lay out some parts, as the (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: GPF on manual zoom in MLCad 2.11
 
(...) Hey, neat tip! Thanks. (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: matching pattern numbers???
 
(...) When reasonable, yes, we should. If I make the Johnny Thunder face today, but don't make his torso for a couple of years, I wouldn't expect that the same pattern number will necessarily be available later. There are too many patterns for that. (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  "tangenting"
 
Is there an easy way to rotate by dragging in MLCAD? I have a situation where I want something to be tangent to two things and it's a complex 3 dimensional angle to calculate. I know the endpoints, more or less. What I would like to be able to do is (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

She is good model you guys should Look at it. could be in your town too. (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: panel with round windows (for 10020) updated
 
(...) Hi, I also don't know all of the primitives there are available. I want to make a list with pictures and description. Using the primitives is like using subparts, but with streching them in the right orientation. It's a little bit linear (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: panel with round windows (for 10020) updated
 
(...) Go to take a look at your ldraw/p/ directory. ;) More seriously, I've reposted the slightly-dated Primitives Reference page at (URL). That page gives you an outline of most of the 'types' of primitive files. Steve (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Modeling String
 
(...) Thanks for that and it may come in handy. I am just doing loose string though rather than the kind with the molded studcaps. I subsequently posted a string segment that I ended up using. It's way too long to work as Rosco described (but I (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Modeling String
 
Maybe you could use my rubberbelt generator and remove unneeded portions ? (www.philohome.com/r...elts.htm). The version that uses cylinder primitive could use a "braided primitive" with the same dimensions. (...) (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: matching pattern numbers???
 
(...) This sounds like a sensible suggestion. The change should of course be made, so there are only minimal (if any) changes to the names of already published parts. Jacob (23 years ago, 10-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
