FYI: there is a 10.2.3 update. OpenGL is updated to 1.4 in this release. Has anyone else updated and tried LdGLite? I haven't installed it and don't plan to until next week (by then www.macfixit.com should have a good list of problems associated (...)

Has anyone had experience with HUGE LDraw files or MPD files (thousands of parts)? What are the effects? Do they crash some programs, or make them unusably slow? Just curious. Thanks! -Tim (22 years ago, 20-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)
