  Re: L3PAO does not work with LGEO
 
(...) Jaco travi's solution to downgrade is the BEST option for most people. L3PAO does not PLAY well with POV-Ray 3.5 right now. There is a way to FORCE L3PAO to play with POV 3.5 but you must manually edit some files. Search his forum for POV 3.5 (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  24-tooth Technic gear confusion - Part(s) 3648, 3648a, x187
 
I am really confused about the variations on the 24-tooth Technic gear which appear in quite a number of the sets I am attempting to inventory/verify. First of all there seem to be two major variations: the earlier one has three axle holes, and the (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.db.inv)

  Re: Lego Brick Dimensions Changes?
 
(...) This is one prime number relationship in the system. If cell spacing is 20 and stud radius is 6, then a diagonal distance between two studs is 20 * Sqrt(2) - 12, or about 16.28. This is the tube outside diameter. The inside diameter ought to (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: A Portable Modeling CD for Holiday Travels?
 
Not too much to add except this... drive letters can be used not only for things like CDs but also for subdirectories of existing hard drives. (1) So you could set up a directory like C:\mumble\LDrawCDimage\ then do a NET USE like net use l: (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Lego Brick Dimensions Changes?
 
The LDraw standards for dimensions make up a self-consistent system, though that system has some fundamental differences when compared to real-world bricks. (...) The general rule is that a plate is 1/8th of an inch, so one ldraw unit is 1/64th of (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: A Portable Modeling CD for Holiday Travels?
 
Shaun, Not sure if this will help you or not, but there is an old dos command named SUBST, which will substitute a drive letter and path for another. For instance you could type Subst L: D:\ and that will create an L drive on your system that refers (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad)

  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)

  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)
