  Re: MLCad blacked out views problem
 
I'm beginning to wonder if Direct X 9 is the problem. Although I can't say this problem started immediately after I upgraded to Direct X 9 it was definitly around the same time that the blackout problem started. Anyone else have Direct X 9 installed (...) (21 years ago, 25-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) Please read this article about POV-Ray 3.5 (I assume you using 3.5): (URL) the directions to fix the undocumented error in the POV Distribution. This will fix most of the problems you encounter. -Orion (21 years ago, 25-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Help a guy out...
 
I wanted to get this out earlier but, have been busy. I want to thank the hand full of you guys that took time out to give that file a Render. I still can't believe how well it came out. I also found a few goofs in my model but, nothing that can't (...) (21 years ago, 25-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Possible Bug?
 
Joe, the hidden attribute is never saved. So when you save such a hidden group, only the group itself is saved, not the hidden attribute. When you reload the model now, you will see the group again. When you ungroup the "group" its just split up (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Color Definition for Dull Silver
 
How about dropping the AA ? So far, IIRC, no-one has ever used it. If another value than the default (0x80?) is wanted, it can be put into the MATERIAL section: transparent=25% The we will use the familiar LDraw color codes for both EdgeColor and (...)

  MLCad blacked out views problem
 
I recently upgraded to version 3 of MLCad and I'm having a problem were all the views have turned black. It appears to be some sort of graphics problem, because the parts preview window is also blacked out, and all the colours in the default pallet (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: LDraw to RenderMan conversion
 
(...) Very cool! There was a guy from DreamWorks at SIGGRAPH who was looking for something like this. I'll be sure to pass it along! -Tim (21 years ago, 24-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Color Definition for Dull Silver
 
(...) Ok, I was agreeing with your proposal to make it optional and relegate it to the end of the line with the MATERIAL properties. And hopefully it'll never be used, except possibly to reproduce a texture that's stippled in real life like the (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  LDraw to RenderMan conversion
 
Hi there! Neither do I rendering nor am I enemy of POV-ray, still posting this: I've found an LDraw to RenderMan convertor here:(URL) it might be useful for, let's say, 0.5% of you ;) bye rob (21 years ago, 24-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Part Renames
 
(...) The Castle Walls (including the newly LDraw one) need to be renamed to be Panels. Also, the names for minifig parts (of which there are many) are a great mystery to me. E.g., Minifig Castle Helmet with Chin-Guard was recently officialized, but (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Color Definition for Dull Silver
 
(...) Actually, I want to keep dithering. (...) Shrug. I dunno. (...) I'm OK with AARRGGBB, if everyone agrees with that. I'd recommend that programs recognize a variety of semi-standard formats, specifically: #AARRGGBB 0xAARRGGBB AARRGGBB (...) (21 years ago, 24-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Variants of Wheel Holder Brick (Wa: Rubber Colors Needed)
 
(...) Witch one of them? I know by three variants only by heart and with some research, I will probably find more... :) (...) I think it would be great for Bricklink and such purposes. /Tore (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) So far it is worth less... ;-) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Color Definition for Dull Silver
 
(...) No it's not. If the render is old and not updated then it will never the ldconfig.ldr file anyhow, so the dithered colors in ledit and ldraw will never change. This is for the future. (...) That's still true, but you should be able to replace (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Part Renames
 
(...) I think Bracket 3 x 2 x 2 would be the best alternative. Keep the space seat line, just use it a keyword. And although I sure it has been mentioned before, I think that all theme names should be relagated to keywords and not as parts (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Rubber Colors Needed (Was: Color Definition for Dull Silver)
 
(...) I seem to have a few of these white (sort of a chalky gray-white, in my collection) tires from the early 70's, but I have no idea which of my early sets included them. I always figured that the white color was simply a sign of degraded rubber. (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
