  Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence
 
Hi, I've created a simple web page with some examples of the output of my program. There you will find the remaining primitives that hadn't been certified yet and all the technic bricks certified with my program. (URL) Steve, could you put them at (...)

Looks great ! Springs should probably be included too as they have ends with something variable in between... Philo www.philohome.com (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Formalizing a method for handling synthesizable parts
 
Larry, Yes, I'm glad you mentioned string. It is similar to both bands and tubes. I'm not much of a mathematical theoretician, so I'll probably need some help designing the algorithms, but I can code like a madman. Kevin "Larry Pieniazek" (...) (22 years ago, 14-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Formalizing a method for handling synthesizable parts
 
(...) I think this would be very nifty! (...) One other type of flexible part is string. Taut string should conform to the shape of whatever it is wound on, leave tangentially, and have a linear path to the other end. Slack string should conform to (...)

  Re: LDGLite and XFree86 4.2?
 
(...) I'm not sure if MESA-demos (I just looked it up) is part of XFree86-devel. I suspect not. (...) I don't know about that. Perhaps MESA-lib is closely tied because of the intermingling of X and OpenGL protocols, but the higher level windowing (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDGLite and XFree86 4.2?
 
(...) XFree86-devel is already installed. (...) I will see if I can get that to work, but I would expect it to be rather closely tied to the rest of the XFree86-package. Play well, Jacob -- Bregnerod (a LEGO town): (URL) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Formalizing a method for handling synthesizable parts
 
I'm relatively new to the LDRAW CAD world, but am very impressed with all the work that has been done. It is amazing that we have such a huge parts database to work with. I've been working on a tool for publishing LDRAW based designs. It has been in (...) (22 years ago, 14-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev) ! 
 
  Re: LDGLite and XFree86 4.2?
 
(...) That's not going to do it. You seem to be missing the glut library which is not a core OpenGL library, but a widely distributed toolkit that's used for most of the example programs. Ldglite uses this extensively to open the window, get the (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  LDGLite and XFree86 4.2?
 
I use a Linux system where I do not have system administrator rights, but I would still like to compile and use LDGLite on it. My problem is that the system has XFree86 version 4.2 installed, and the names of some of the OpenGL/Mesa files seem to (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Detemining Bad Vertex Sequence
 
(...) Yes - "Poll, silent update" - that's the option - it refreshes for me (400Mhz Celeron) every one to two seconds. Not sure if you can control the poll frequency, though. Lars, can you answer this? Chris (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

A couple of notes about this piece: I don't know if "Kettle Helm" is even close to being correct, so name suggestions are welcome. I left out the notch at the back of the neck, because it was easier to do with primitives and didn't seem too (...) (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Rotating and Aligning Elements in MLCad
 
Hey Y'all: I know this is answered elsewhere, but it's a hassle to look for. As great as MLCad is (for me it is "THEE" CAD tool for LDraw action), the documentation is just not there in some ways. Recently I had cause to mess with an angled element (...) (22 years ago, 12-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
