  Sharing directories with models/parts
 
Hello all, A friend of mine asked me the following question related to MLCad and I couldn't help him, but maybe some of you know more about this. Is het possible to change the directory Models so that different people can use the same directory, for (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) checking. (...) I guess I should have picked this up in the final checking for the 2003-01 parts release. Regardless of the results of this discussion, I have submitted a fixed part to the Parts Tracker. Chris (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Actually this is stated in the BFC spec but it wasn't enforced until the PT was created. -Orion (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Latest BFC Spec?
 
(...) There are currently a number of flags that indicate that a file is a part. The official one is only present in files that have been updated since it was made official. However, this isn't a problem, since any BFC-certified part is guaranteed (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: BFC problem with s/3070bs01.dat?
 
(...) I personally feel that whitespace should be ignored. However, if that is the case, the BFC spec should probably be updated to note this. It might also be argued that further comments after the INVERTNEXT should also be ignored. However, I (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: BFC problem with 970s01.dat?
 
(...) Actually, no it wouldn't. It would render incorrectly after the primitive was BFC certified if you guessed wrong about the ultimate orientation of the polygons in the primitive. However, until the primitive is certified, it will not be BFC'd, (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  MoonBase Corridor 2.0 ?  [DAT]
 
I was playing around with moonbase ideas, but the current standard corridors only allow one MF to walk through at a time and aren't big enough for trams or monorails : ( I took a stab at a new revision of a moonbase corridor. The 4 red (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

  Re: Latest BFC Spec?
 
I saved this thread for later reading, and I've got a few questions now. Sorry if I'm resurrecting something everyone thought was dead :D (...) Once the parts library is fully BFC certified, will there ever be a need to use CLIP or NOCLIP? I'm not (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: BFC problem with 970s01.dat?
 
(...) No I thin khe meant that only new and updated primitives are required to be BFC compliant to be accepted to the parts tracker. Parts are still accepted that aren't certified though that is preferable. Though I'm not sure I've seen anything (...) (22 years ago, 20-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: Backwards Compatibility (Was Calling all Meta-commands)
 
(...) I like that. I think a clear indication that a comment is in fact a meta statement is needed. And I find "0 {META} " more distinct than (META), <META>, {BFC}, <BFC>, MODULENAME and whatever else has been suggested. But we're still stuck with (...)
