(...) This is all going into the keywords search info, so stunningly technical is probably more than I'll deliver on. :) Steve (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Chrome Parts
 
(...) Because of a change to the way Partsref images are generated, the silver and gold images dropped in quality from "poor" to "useless". Until I can figure out a way to generate images that actually look right, and are the same size as the other (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: MPD spec
 
I think I am going to load referenced subparts only and use the first one of recursive mpd files, ignoring the rest for now for LD4DModeler's MPD support. Roland. (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Color fidelity - duplicating brick colors in print
 
I wasn't sure where to post this, so I'll start here... I'm trying to work up some artwork to print (on a T-shirt or sticker or something), and I want the final printed colors to match "official" Lego brick colors, specifically Red and Green. Is (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)

I've been working on a realistic planet generator in POVRay for a while now, and was hoping someone had a better solution than mine! :-, But thanks for the link, just looking at the output from Lunarcell is giving me new ideas...

  RE: High Quality Technic Friction Pegs DATS
 
William, Thanks for the effort. Thise scans really do look good! In the end, I used MLCad to generate wireframes and has my wife (an architefctural renderer) trace the contours using a good old Pilot Fineliner. Then I scanned the drawing and cleaned (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Don't know if you still need to illustrate the point, but if so, I have just scanned the 5 technic pegs I have at 600dpi to show the ridges. (URL) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Nice microfig Star Trek render
 
It's the same picture of the Constitution from the microfigure gallery. Sorry to disappoint you, but it's not Pov-Ray. I used Adobe Photoshop on it. I used the filter "Lunarcell" to make the planet, then I added the Constitution, I noticed the (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.cad.ray)

Portals. It's not backface culling, it's testing all polygons for visibility using possible rays through the openings, or from the sides of a bounding box. This is no longer culling based on front/back but true visibility that is computed once at (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Detemining Polygon Winding (Was: New Plugin for LDDesignPad)
 
(...) OK, but if the quads and triangles don't form a single closed surface, or actually a bunch of closed surfaces, then the algorithm won't work. However, like I said, if you find something that works, post the code or the algorithm and you'll be (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
