| Hi Don, I'd love it if you would set up the project on sourceforge. I know nothing about sourceforge specifically, although I've use source code control systems for many years. As we can see, there are plenty of wasy to improve lsynth, and I think (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.inst)

Currently the windows based installer uses the registry to identify (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.inst)

| Jennifer, You are using and old verion of LSynth where the length is provided. Version 2.0 has it removed, because it was not used. Orion, I agree completely on wanting a length control. I also want lsynth to somehow understand hose rigidity (I (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.inst)

| (...) Yes. That is one of the bugs in the program (I'm sure there are more lurking out there.) I've got constraints too close together. Again, I hope to fix this using an iterative length technique, or to have the synthesizer assume know that the (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.inst)

I also need to add (because I need it in a model) the ability to have non-planar belts, and non-belts (constrained by bricks, liftarms and such). (...)

| Hi Jaco, I started out on the wrong approach to synthesized hoses and rubber bands, where I used LDraw parts to create the bands and tubes. In most cases I don't need new parts, I just need to use a cylinder (or square) primitive and scale it as (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.inst)

| Isn't it nice to get parts back? I've Been at a loss for something to build lately, now I can play around with three of your models. BTW, any chance you might do the Esprit?
