  Re: Segmented parts (ie hoses and flex tubes)
 
(...) Actually, by the guidelines for parts I posted, the flex-axle subparts should be in the parts directory. Moving the hose segments to parts/s/ would prevent the shrinkage problem, but I think there are better solutions. Steve (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) Yes, but according to this page you can override the global DecmimalSeparator value in the SysUtils module of Delphi. (URL) might want to do that so European users can keep their Windows regional settings and still use your program. Don (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) I read the GPL and intend to release the source when I finalize how I want the program to operate. In the mean time, do you think I credit your work sufficently? I hate legalese, such as the GPL, and would prefer a more direct reply on exactly (...) (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) The source code for LDraw-mode is published under the GNU General Public License. This essentially means that anybody can read and modify the source code at their own will. But if anybody publishes any work derived from my program, they have (...) (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Excellent rendering...
 
(...) If it's not in the latest POV-Ray version, then it is at least in Mega-POV-Ray. I don't remember right now... Fredrik (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Excellent rendering...
 
(...) My words exactly. It is only the segmented surfaces on the round brick in the foreground that reveals that it is a rendering. - Okay. There is also a revealing lack of ridges between the bricks. (...) Yes. Has POV-Ray implemented rendering (...) (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) Basically I translated the ELisp code into Pascal, simplifying and consolidating where I could. I credited you because I felt that I took too much from your original code. BTW, ELisp is not a very intuitive language to translate. I had to make (...) (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) This question is directed towards Orion Pobursky, by the way. I'm sorry for the confusion. Fredrik (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) May I ask what kind of relation there is between the code in LDDesignPad and LDraw-Mode? Have you captured my general idea, but implemented it by yourself from scratch? Or have you followed my algorithms more or less step by step? Fredrik (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  4-4disc.dat  [DAT]
 
Also here is an optimised 4-4disc which uses seven quads to replace 16 triangles which results in 14 triangles if split up. I know that optimizing discs by replacing triangles with quads has not been very popular as many renderers splut quads up (...) (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  2-4 disc primitive  [DAT]
 
Here is an optimised version of the 2-4 disc primitive.

  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) That's really wierd. It uses decimal points on both my machines. The problem may be due to your Windows regional settings if you are in Europe ( I think some European nations used the comma as a decimal separator). -Orion (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: santa fe -poster- in progress
 
(...) the signal tower? yes. i will post instructions soon, maybe tonight. the poster is not the final product though. it came out bad cause of the lighting. (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Segmented parts (ie hoses and flex tubes)
 
(...) Oh, I meant the first one *I* mentioned, not the 751.dat :-) (...) Well, after second thoughts and various comments from you guys, I think we should keep segments in PARTS. (...) Yup, I agree, that is the solution. The curve generator should (...) (22 years ago, 26-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New LDDesignPad Plugin
 
(...) . . . This might work better if it used decimal points instead of the commas. Don (22 years ago, 26-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Excellent rendering...
 
(...) To put this into perspective, the Brazil Artist Bundle is $1200, which includes one workstation license and two render node licenses. It is an amazingly good render, though. --Travis Cobbs (tcobbs@REMOVE.halibut.com) (22 years ago, 26-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)

It's rendered with the Brazil renderer inside 3ds max.... and.. not by me..... THL (22 years ago, 26-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) Good idea! My biggest problem, though, is in trying to figure out how to join many line segments into one long line; for example, in Jacob's rendering the wings look *too* broken up, where one jagged line would have served better. That, and (...) (22 years ago, 26-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
