  Re: Can anyone help by suggesting some lighting tips?
 
(...) Ah, O.K. I think I see how this works. You're effectively telling POV-RAY, "here's a color file I want you to use. Now, here's what color you should assign that file to. In other words, when I say RED from now on, I want you to use that LUGNET (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Minifig Generator Plugin for LDDesignPad Version 1.6
 
(...) Are you planning to support plugins via dlopen and dlsym? That'd be fantastic. I just modified my plugin test program to take a plugin name on the command line and ran some more of the lddp plugins successfully. (I think the bezier plugin (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Minifig Generator Plugin for LDDesignPad Version 1.6
 
(...) That's great. So it should work if I make a plugins directory off whatever directory ldglite.exe resides in. I take it that's where you'd look for the lddp.ini file as well. Is the lddp.ini file a replacement for the lddp registry entries? (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Can anyone help by suggesting some lighting tips?
 
(...) Ok, I quickly whipped up an include file for all the LDraw colors in the LUGNET Color Guide library. Find it here: (URL) under the Program Addins Section. It's down at the bottom. (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Minifig Generator Plugin for LDDesignPad Version 1.6
 
(...) Unfortunately no. The component library I used for rendering, GLScene, is only available for Windows. Though I read that they were think of proting to Kylix. As soon as they relase a stable version, I'll work on it (...) I love for you to use (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Hey, cool. Is there a linux port in the works? (...) I have questions. I think these plugins are pretty cool, so would it be OK to use them as plugins for the LEDIT mode in ldglite? I did a quick and dirty feasibility test and it looks doable. (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Can anyone help by suggesting some lighting tips?
 
(...) It's working but very,very slowly. If the POV clock hasn't stopped, then its still rendering. Like I wrote above, it'll take a long time to render on Rad Level 3. Try Rad Level 1 first and then, if you like the way the scene is set up, use (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

  Re: Questions: 12 volt train track parts
 
(...) It seems to me that this is where we draw the line between ray tracing parts and ldraw parts. Extra details and rounded edges belong on the ray tracing versions of the parts, but not on the ldraw parts. Ldraw parts should render quickly (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: portable version of mklist?
 
(...) Ok, I tried to recreate the changes for 1.3 based on the message strings contained in the executable.

  Re: portable version of mklist?
 
(...) I asked Lars to add -i and -o functionality to mklist (so I could index various directories of part and primitive files). He sent along the EXE, but not the source. When LDraw 0.27 was being finished up, I included in the 1.3 mklist.exe. I (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
