Hi I'm entirely new to MLCad/LDraw. I'm looking for 2 unofficial parts files, but I just can't seem to find these. The files are: 10024.dat - this part is the 6 stud wide window found in the Santa FE locomotive set. 9vstrate.dat - this part is an (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Larry, There is only one. At least that was all I had - there may have been more, but my email crapped out. So yes, that one will be a default winner. I've not given a lot of thought about what to do when there is only one entry. Or no (...) (22 years ago, 10-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Is there really a reason they should be dithered? The only reason they were dithered originally is because LDraw ran in 16 color mode, and that was the only way to support more colors, right? If so, then I would argue that if you can generate (...) (22 years ago, 10-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)

Yes its true, however don't too excited yet. For several months now I have been working on a new LDRAW renderer. I did this to over come some of the shortfalls in the renderer in LdGLite (Mac) that I converted earlier this year. In principle I was (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
