  Re: Capitalization of filenames
 
I think the reason for the capital .DAT extension is because LDraw was original DOS. If you install the original package under windows, all directories and files will be capitals as well. Furthermore I do not experience any problems with lower or (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Lego Brick Dimensions Changes?
 
Has anyone taken the time to measure a standard 2x4 brick or plate in detail? More than just outer height width and length but inner wall thicknesses, cylinder diameters etc. I've been spending time working out the relationships and proportions of (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Capitalization of filenames
 
It seems like a while back, parts were supposed to have the extension ".DAT". But I'm seeing that all the links on ldraw.org seem to point to files with ".dat" at the end. What's the scoop- are lower-case filenames considered ideal now? Which ldraw (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Glass... to BFC or not to BFC?
 
(...) They require a different approach to optimization - visibility culling, not backface culling. You're right in thinking they should not be BFC. The exception I think might be a full box - which gets composited twice in a polygon system like (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Tony Hafner (uploading parts as hafhead) * user since early 2002 * author since late 2001 * parts made so far: 18 new parts in official releases (mostly Duplo) various fixups in old parts (~4?) 10 more new parts on the tracker or ready for (...)

  Glass... to BFC or not to BFC?
 
When authoring "glass" parts, should I include BFC statements? It seems like we wouldn't want to cull because all surfaces should be visible from any direction. On the other hand, BFC is a performance optimization and transparent surfaces are (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Need Part Number - Slope Brick Round 1 x 6 x 1 with 2 Studs on Top
 
I intend to create this part for LDRAW, but cannot find a part number anywhere. Does anyone know the part number? (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Wanted: An AutoTouch Utility
 
(...) It could work, but it would be very hard to find the lines I'm currently working on. The railroad switch is well over 300kb, and growing... And I don't think LDSShell is MPD compatible either. /Tore (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Wanted: An AutoTouch Utility
 
(...) While working on the part you could have it all zipped into an MPD. /Lars (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: ldglite broke in Mac OS X 10.2.2
 
(...) I just checked and the SourceForge compile farm only has 10.1 available so I can't compile it on 10.2 right now. Didn't Apple switch to make extensive use of OpenGL in the 10.2 desktop? Who knows what that may have broken. (Perhaps the patched (...) (22 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
