  Cheap container  [DAT]
 
This is a container that MichLTC has built in the past for the container swap. It's very cheap to build in the colors we used and conforms exactly to the form factor of the containers in 4549 0 Cheap 4x8 container (derived from Std) 0 Name: (...)

(...) You're welcome. :) (...) The way the page works is the history text (the reviews & submits appearing at the bottom of the detail) is searched for 'Submitted by: pneaster' and any matching files are returned in the list.

  Re: Vertices not coplanar?
 
(...) What Orion said. (...) Sometimes, it just means the vertices are incorrect. If the vertices are correct, then you should break the quads into two triangles, and put a soft edge (linetype 5) along the common edge. But often, it's worth looking (...)

  Re: LDraw-to-Raves (was: POV in Part)
 
(...) [snip comparision of libraries] Many parts look about the same, whether their code came from LDraw or Anton's library. Also, there are a number of small differences between the versions of the some parts in the two libraries. Sometimes Anton's (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Vertices not coplanar?
 
(...) When a renderer goes to render a quad in 3D, it will almost always (perhaps always) first split the quad into two triangles. As long as the quad forms a planar surface, this will result in fairly equivalent results no matter which of the two (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDraw-to-Raves (was: POV in Part)
 
(...) Hmm, thinking more about this, it could be done with individual files, and then a single master file that includes all the individual wrapper files. The master file could be auto-generated whenever the wrapper-library is updated. That would be (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Vertices not coplanar?
 
(...) If I remember my 3D theory correctly, these quads can mess up the normals associated with them. Also, noncoplaner quads cause small gaps in the part since they are, in essence, bent rectangles. Usually these gaps are too small to see, even (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Vertices not coplanar?
 
What troubles do these warnings cause? I see no problems with the renderings, no matter what renderer I use. How do I correct them? By splitting all the quads into two triangles each I guess? If so, why not make a tool that splits them up? /Tore (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LGEO Part 3741 (Plant Flower Stem) Fix
 
I think I may have found an error in the LGEO code for part 3741 (Plant Flower Stem). The part appears to be the mirror image of it's LDraw counterpart. To fix it, flip the sign of the number 120 on lines 120, 124, 130 & 135 of file lg_3741.inc. I (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
