 | | Questions about existing parts (making BFC)
|
|
After being out of buissiness for a while I continued to make existing parts bfc compliant. Are all primitives already bfc compliant? I thought someone was working on that, so I dont want to spend time to do that over again. Some primitives i have (...) (22 years ago, 6-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad)

|

(...) For reasons of strict compatibility, colors in part files are limited to 0-16, 24, 32-47, and 256-511. Any of the 'post-LDraw' color codes (17-23, 24-28, 57, etc) are not allowed. So for orange, you need to stick with the dithered version, (...) (22 years ago, 6-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

Hello! Is there any chance that L3p will support Anton Raves POVRay Lego Library? I think that would be great because there are a lot of great made bricks in that library and LGEO seems to be dead. Maybe L3P could pick the necessary pieces from both (...) (22 years ago, 5-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

A question for all part authors How do you figure out the measurements for your parts? I'm not talking about the obvious measurements such as stud width but the more intricate details on some of the more complex parts. Do you use a micrometer, (...) (22 years ago, 5-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
