  Re: BrikTrak 2002 Beta 1 Now Available.
 
(...) Very cool! I've been playing with the DAT/LDR/MPD import, and I have a few suggestions. 1) I often use color 256 for black rubber. Could you modify the program to interpret color 256 as 0? 2) One part that came up as UNKNOWN was 2412a.dat. In (...)

  Re: Part Fix 3959 Space Gun
 
(...) Yes, "Torch" is best to cover both horizontal usage and vertical usage. It has been used as a flashlight but mostly in my imagination as I can't exibit a 1980s town set proving that. Personnaly, I view it as a flashlight in any space set. It (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Updated 30399.dat  [DAT]
 
I have fixed the duplicated lines according to L3P. Is this the correct name? Also, do I need to submit this to the tracker? If so, how do I get an account? I hope this one is correct, I don't think any of the parts that I have made have been OK'd. (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: Trouble with POV 3.5
 
(...) I have found 3.5 to be almost twice as fast as 3.1 with the same files - tested on a PII, P3 and P4. Most incompatabilities can be removed with the version directive. (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: ASSOCIATE (was: Re: Renaming of 2916.dat)
 
(...) WAY better than using naming to overload. 2916 and 2917 get at best a very weak association if they have train in their name. With the ASSOCIATE keyword extension it becomes quite explicit what their connection is. (and parts can also have (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: Trouble with POV 3.5
 
(...) Can't help it, I'm an upgrade junkie. Been that way for years :) Anyway, is there a good tutorial on MegaPOV? I have not used that yet, still using L3P. (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  ASSOCIATE (was: Re: Renaming of 2916.dat)
 
(...) Hmm. Interesting idea. So part 3937 (URL) might have an entry like: 0 ASSOCIATE 3938 6134 and part 3938 (URL) might have: 0 ASSOCIATE 3937 2440 (of course, these examples capture information that otherwise might be captured by a connectivity (...)

  Re: New Part in progress - Baseplate 32 x 32 with Craters
 
(...) Wow! I think you've definitely got sufficient detail there. (...) If you include a comment in the part file, indicating that the bottom is modeled as a flat surface to reduce the size/complexity of the part, I think that would be alright. (...)

  Re: CMDLINE Meta-statement
 
(...) The purpose is to specify viewing characteristics for a part that should be the default, but we don't want to hard-code into the part itself. Generally, it's used to specify the 'correct' color for patterned parts. So a patterned minifig head (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Trouble with POV 3.5

  Re: Trouble with POV 3.5
 
(...) Unfortunately, the POV dev team has a history of breaking backwards compatability in their revisions. Think back to how they mutilated the halo feature of 3.0 when they introduced media in 3.1. Their goal is to force everyone to use the latest (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

It's a understandable name. Space gun is to one-sided. 0 Minifig Torch (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jul-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
