  BFC and details
 
Questions, questions, questions, yes I know I have lots of questions ;-) How big is the BFC-issue actually? Is it a goal to have (somewhere far in the future) all parts BFC certified? I started to make all the parts I have created BFC compliant. (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Outlined part edges in L3P?
 
(...) All line type 2 (and some type 5) should be visible. Why not? Edge lines along primitives are harder but not impossible. /Lars (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: Outlined part edges in L3P?
 
(...) L3P works on one file at the time (it doesn't walk the tree), and when it processes the model, the parts and submodels have been thrown away. Otherwise you are right. After posting I imagined I would let L3Lab (which walks the tree) generate (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: Outlined part edges in L3P?
 
I realized that this suggestion might work fine for rectangular parts, but cylindrical parts won't have edge lines along the cylinder walls, right? Kevin (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.inst)

"Lars C. Hassing" <lch@ccieurope.com> skrev i meddelandet news:H7JwBt.7t1@lugnet.com... (...) Perhaps L3P could collect all the edge lines during part generation, but defer the output until the complete model has been generated, and then write (...)

  Re: Parts authoring status update (patterns, PATTERNS!)
 
(...) Take your time, don't hurry because of me, I can wait... I just noticed some differences between the old logo (open O) 2x2 brick and the newer logo (closed O) 2x2 brick. If I look at the topside of the brick having the 'Lego' text on the studs (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: QTVR of a model
 
(...) This is really cool. Quicktime VR has always been a nice thing to see and look around in, and now Lego models can be seen within it! Great job, I hope others will take notice and attempt to create more Quicktime VR files of neat MOCs. (By the (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Outlined part edges in L3P?
 
(...) First, I don't think that it is related to the "smooth triangle" algorithm, because this is independent of the scale of the triangles, it only deals with their surface normals. The basic problem is, that there is no such thing as a line in (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.inst)

  Re: Large LDraw/MPD Files?
 
(...) In August 2001 I did a render of Datsville with QUAL=0 (URL) be able to render the huge POV file (11 MB) generated by L3P in finite time on my old PC (450 MHz Pentium II, 128 MB RAM) the QUAL flag in the POV file was set to 0 initially using (...) (22 years ago, 23-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
(...) Yes, I plan adding -co for orthographic camera with automatic camera positioning. But the orthographic camera has changed in PovRay 3.5, and it is playing games with me.

  Re: *** Start celebrating .... NOW
 
(...) Is there a doc anywhere describing how to use the MLCAD hose generator? I've been trying understand how all the points contribute to the curve but must be missing something obvious. Jennifer (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Outlined part edges in L3P?
 
Excellent suggestion!! I've been wrestling with MegaPOV lately, having frustration with different size submodels and the find_edges settings. I want to keep the line thickness relative to the _parts_ and not to the render resolution, but since the (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.inst)
 
  Size of electric plugs (4.5 / 12 V)
 
I decided to finish the lightbricks (2x2) I have started a while ago. When comparing the socketholes with those used by the 4.5 Volt technic motor 6216m.dat and the plug 766c01.dat I noticed that the size of the metal plugs in part 766c01 are too (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)

  Outlined part edges in L3P?
 
Hi Lars, I was wondering if you had ever considered adding a feature to L3P to provide the lines at edges of bricks, so that we don't have to use MEGAPOV to do so? The advantages are that we would not have to play with MEGAPOV settings to get them (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)
