  Re: "Clusters" of Studs?
 
(...) I thought of 4x4, too. First I rejected the idea as I thought it would only save 15 lines in a file but then I realized that it can be used more than once in a file. I can't find any other sombinations that I would like to have. Maybe, maybe a (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: Formalizing a method for handling synthesizable parts
 
Chuck, This is a good idea. I'll put it on the list. Kevin (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Problem with LDraw-Mode and LDDP Bezier Curve plugin
 
(...) This is a very difficult situation to model. The fact that the end points are parallell make it difficult. Since there is little or no slack for the curve to curve itself in this case, you must make sure that the length of the curve is not (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: 4-4con12.dat
 
(...) I agree this should be done - I had completely overlooked the fact that 4-4con12.dat really is the same as 4-4con1.dat. Deleting parts isn't really supported by te update mechanism, and I feel a little uneasy about creating a real 4-4con12.dat (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: "Clusters" of Studs?
 
(...) In principle this sounds OK to me, but I would want to be somewhat restrictive about how many new files we have - 4x4, 6x6, 8x8 sound good combinations. What others? Regarding a naming convention, though, do we know how all renderers recognise (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Problem with LDraw-Mode and LDDP Bezier Curve plugin  [DAT]
 
This question is mostly for Fredrik but anyone else that wants to chime in is welcome. Have a look at this rendering: (URL) some reason these flexible axles didn't create right. They have a kink in the middle instead of a smooth transition. I (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  4-4con12.dat  [DAT]
 
For the next parts update I would like to suggest that 4-4con12.dat is deleted or its content is replaced by "0 Cone 1.0 Radius 12" Then we can state a template: 4-4conN.dat, like the 1-4conN.dat we already have. The following official files need (...) (22 years ago, 20-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Read and draw .dat files
 
(...) Hello Alex! Ldraw files are made of text lines. Typically, in model files (that contain parts), lines begin with numbers lower than 2 0: comment 1: part (position and orientation) Typically, in part files (that contain primitives), lines begin (...)

  Re: Train Trach Switch Progress
 
(...) Starts looking great! When you are finnished, I will include these into my track generator! Bytheway, does anyone know where part 3230b.dat is? (Outer curve slotted) My track generator now uses 3230a.dat in gray to be at least able to generate (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Question about part 6233
 
(...) I seem to remember that I wrote those primitive files for that part, then I didn't want to go through the headache of getting the primitives approved. Or maybe I thought they wouldn't be very useful primitives. So they were probably inlined as (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Anyone got a 41881 ?
 
(...) [snip] "Library subdirectory must be included" is just the PT's cute way of saying "I didn't find it". Sometimes, it's easier to go to the parts list page, and do a local search for numbers. Steve (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Orientation of train tracks
 
(...) Moving parts requires using a different number. Which is possible if we aren't parked on a 'real' part number, but are using a 3DN (three digit number). But it's not possible if a part is already on the right number. (...) The 9V tracks (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Partnames and numbers (wheels and trainwheels)
 
(...) I've reserved temporary part numbers x242, x243, x244 and x245 for you. So if you don't find out the real numbers, use these temporary numbers instead. For names, I can't give you a definite response until I see the parts (I don't have the old (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad)

  Question about part 6233
 
I was looking at part 6233 tonight and noticed a number of primitives that are inlined. I restored the part to the non-inlined state and did not notice any change in the part. As there is not one listed in the part header, is there a reason for the (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  "Clusters" of Studs?
 
Inspired by parts\s\4186a.dat, I would like to see "clusters" of studs, say 6 x 6 and 8 x 8. That would make a lot of part files *much* smaller. Maybe we could call them Stud36.dat and Stud64.dat? /Tore (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
