  How do I write a header file for an updated part...
 
...when the new version is redone from scratch? In the past, I've done some minor reworking of files. In these cases, I simply added the date, my name, and a description of what I'd done to the file. But what about when I fire up Notepad and start (...) (22 years ago, 12-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: question/problem with some flag parts
 
You're right. The 43.dat isn't a 6 x 4 flag. But I can't tell you if there exists a real 6 x 3 1/3 one. The "Jolly Roger" one is named correct. Does anybody want to fix this? CU Bernd Jaco van der Molen <jmolen@globalxs.nl> schrieb im Newsbeitrag (...) (22 years ago, 12-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: question/problem with some flag parts
 
Hmm... The flag 6 x 4 (#43) is actually 6 x 3 1/3. Flag 6 x 4 (#43P01) is 6 x 4. Strange. I do not own any of these two parts, but I think part 43 is either mesured wrong or the description is wrong. Or part 43P01 is wrong... Jaco "Jonathan Wilson" (...) (22 years ago, 12-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Why should parts not have vertices lying along edges?
 
(...) My opinion is that this isn't a significant enough problem to worry about. Further more, I consider this is a renderer limitation and not a problem with the part itself. Therefore, feel free to ignore this if it suits your purposes. -Orion (22 years ago, 12-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Rendering over lan?
 
There is another way, but it's not for the feint of heart. It's distributed raytracing. People have hacked pov and made it run across multiple machines. I'm not sure if it's actually been done on Windows OSs yet, bet it has worked for other people (...) (22 years ago, 12-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.ray)
