  Re: Color include file in the next parts update.
 
(...) The LSC is currently working on formalizing the format of ldconfig. I don't think we'll be ready in time for the upcoming update. Look for it in the the 2004-1 update. -Orion (21 years ago, 5-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Color include file in the next parts update.
 
Since there's apparently a new parts update in the pipeline, I was wondering if there's going to be any changes to the ldconfig.ldr file to handle the "new and improved" megablock compatible colors. Also, should we make an attempt to agree on a (...) (21 years ago, 5-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Question: polygons filling a t-shape
 
(...) Actually, with LDraw code, reducing triangle pairs to quads reduces that section of code by 35% (more-or-less). If you've got a lot of surfaces, that's not an insignificant savings of bytes. Steve (21 years ago, 5-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Question: polygons filling a t-shape
 
(...) Thanks for pointing this out -- I've been bugged for awhile about the "colinear quads are bad just because L3P says they're bad" situation, here's a very good reason to not use them. Steve (21 years ago, 5-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Lightbricks (x265/x266/x267)
 
(...) "Absolutely" is an exaggeration. There's a very simple need to put the frame and the glass in separate files: so modelers can change the colors of both. Then there's a simple reason to make a combined file: because, as you said, that's the (...) (21 years ago, 5-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)

  LDRAW updates
 
Hi all ! Will there be till the end of the year one more Ldraw parts update ? The last once is from August. Any chance ? Thanks. Mike (21 years ago, 4-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Question: polygons filling a t-shape
 
(...) Yes, L3P detects and warns about the collinear points of the quad. In the case of splitting the T why don't you just use triangles? The renderers do that anyway, but then you can take control of the splitting. I believe quads are mainly a (...) (21 years ago, 4-Dec-03, to lugnet.cad)
