  Re: how to make graphics
 
(...) I'm just guessing here, but there's probably NOT a way to do this via LDraw proper. On the other hand, there's probably a way to make it work in POV-Ray, I just don't know how... (...) Yes, but the pattern does not go over the existing plane (...) (21 years ago, 28-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

  Re: how to make graphics
 
(...) We measure units in LDraw Distance Units (LDU). 1 LDU = ~1/64 in 20 LDU = 1 brick width/depth 24 LDU = 1 brick hieght => 8 LDU = 1 plate height -Orion (21 years ago, 28-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: how to make graphics
 
(...) The thing to remember here is that artwork on parts are applied as graphic primitives, like lines and triangles. You can not apply a bitmap image to a part. The .dat format just does not support it. -Chuck (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: how to make graphics
 
(...) First, read the various FAQs on LDraw.org's site. Second, make a copy of the "main" DAT file; in this case, make a copy of "30249.dat". Then, open up your favorite text editor (I like Notepad), and load in your copy of the DAT file. In another (...) (21 years ago, 27-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: LDraw Radiosity files version 2.3

  Rounding Utility?
 
Has anybody made a rounding utility? I mean, put dat files with numbers like 0.5369117673 in and get 0.537 out. I'd prefer it as an LDDP plugin, but a standalone program will do, too. /Tore (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
