  Re: So what *IS* a Building Instruction anyway?
 
(...) Hmm. LDAO can do this. Or, it used to be able to. In the HTML instruction generator, it would scan for 0 SUB meta-statements in the main text. the 0 SUB line(s) would reference files that the HTML-IG would render as an inset subassembly. I (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: File Header request for Minifig Parts
 
BTW, I found part of that discussion I mentioned in my other post. Here's the text. I don't think Terry will mind me posting it. The file I found this in is dated 7/5/2001, the discussion is possibly a year older than that. Some things are out of (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Renaming of 2916.dat
 
(...) Probably true. Some discussion on the train related parts to establish general standards may help though, and it may make sense to do so in the context of specific parts. With respect to this one, does it at all make sense to change the name (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Oh, my! Most impressive. :-D (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Renaming of 2916.dat
 
(...) Hey - my first PTadmin hornet's nest !! Here's my rationalisation for changing the name, FWIW. The only comment on the part name in the review history is from Steve Bliss. No-one challenged Steve's suggestion that it should be linked by name (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: File Header request for Minifig Parts
 
Hi Willy (and everyone :), I mostly agree with your idea that 'minifig parts' need to be rearranged. This has been a back-burner project of mine for over a year (and it had been thought about for much longer than that). Here are some things to keep (...)

  Re: So what *IS* a Building Instruction anyway?
 
[ XFUT lugnet.cad ] (...) Yes, but sometimes it is not exactly in an ideal form for the renderers we have at hand today. It would for example be practical, if it was possible: * to tell the renderer that something ought to be rendered as a (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Part Fix 3959 Space Gun
 
(...) If I'm remembering the part right (sorry, I don't have one handy), I'd definitely want to use torii for the ribs. If you ask Paul Easter nicely, he might generate the file for you. (...) No ideas here, and I've been thinking about it for over (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  BrikTrak 2002 Beta 1 Now Available.

BrikTrak has been designed (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.brickshops)  
 
  Re: Animation actions
 
Currently the animation is done within LD4DModeler. Upon export a Ldraw file is generated for each frame, these will be converted to .pov files using l3p and finally be rendered using povray this is done via one file but all the others are included (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  File Header request for Minifig Parts
 
Hi folks, the other day I was flicking through the "Other Parts/M-Library" looking for the "Minifig Top Hat" and it took me quiet a while to find it 'cos there isn't any criteria in naming the different minifig parts. There are: caps, castle (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Renaming of 2916.dat
 
(...) Yes. And this part has already been used in non-train sets (the Res-Q hoovercraft comes to mind). Couldn't we put "train" in the keyword list instead of in the name? Play well, Jacob (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Animation actions
 
(...) <snip> Will the LD4DModeler engine be doing the actuall animation? Or will it be creating POV ray code so that POV ray can do the rendering for the animation. I ask this becuase if Ld4DModeer will be doing the rendering then how will it handle (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Part Fix 3959 Space Gun
 
(...) Tough call. . .the Bar hierarchy makes the most sense from a geometrical standpoint, but this seems like a Minifig Accessory. BTW, shouldn't there be a keyword "torch", since that is, in fact, what most Castle folks would recognize it as? (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Part Fix 3959 Space Gun  [DAT]
 
Since this part is on the PT, I thought I'd add the ribs. I used cone primitives (1-4con7 and 1-4con8, both on the PT) but if someone wants to supply me with appropriate torus primitive I'll use those. Please let me know if this is change of any (...)

  Re: New Part in progress - Baseplate 32 x 32 with Craters
 
(...) Hi Willy, Wow, I am positively impressed. The helmet, and now the crater plate: you are a significant classic space contributor. Save time and effort: a flat bottom is ok for me. Congratulation, Damien (22 years ago, 22-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Animation actions
 
Hi all, I am currently working on Beta 3 of LD4DModeler, which is mainly about animation editor (Visual timeline editor!) and engine, improvement and extension. I was wondering if someone got some ideas about additional animation actions. Currently (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Renaming of 2916.dat
 
(...) Good point. I looked over all the parts in MLCad w/ the Train designator and found that, barring the parts previously mentioned and possibly the track parts, most of them don't even belong in that category (e.g. the doors and windows) (22 years ago, 22-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
