  Re: 81 million points
 
(...) Wow. That must be amazing in fly-thru mode. I'm also curious. What sort of CPU and how much memory do you have, and how much of that was in use by the LDVIEW? (...) I bet you have to get all your display list(s) and vertex arrays into the (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Bram's LDraw and LEdit Tutorial
 
(...) I have a copy. Let me know if you still need it and I can email it to you. I still point to the LEDIT portion of this tutorial in the ldglite instructions so I'd like to see this back on the internet somewhere as soon as possible. Don (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: [LSC] Colour Definition meta-statement
 
(...) Color codes will be defined in decimal notation and the 24-bit RGB will be in Hex. -Orion (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Help needed: Are these parts really LEGO?
 
(...) I started on that one a long time ago. Got the sources somewhere I suppose. Please contact me if you plan to LDraw it. (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Vintage lightbrick 2 x 4
 
(...) I always try to upload subsequent parts in the proper sequence. This time the ring primitive just slipped through. Mayby a warning message would be helpfull to remind missing files. Niels (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)

Talking about vintage parts, when I browsed for old instruction scans I discovered this vintage motor part: (URL) Never seen or heard anything about this before. Niels Karsdorp (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: [LSC] Colour Definition meta-statement
 
(...) RGB is actually 3 numbers - I'd suggest something like RGB(r,g,b) where r g & b can be decimal or hex as per other numbers. ROSCO (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Bram's LDraw and LEdit Tutorial
 
(...) What would the name of the file be and how big is it approx.? Then I can browse through my 6 year old collection of "Download CD's..." :-) Jaco (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  81 million points
 
I normally don't make posts like this, but I thought the numbers involved deserved a post. Just out of curiosity, I stuck a counter in my development LDView code to count the number of points being drawn. I loaded up the copy I have of town.dat (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: [LSC] Colour Definition meta-statement
 
I'll bite. (Note that none of my comments are meant as criticism.) In lugnet.cad.dev, Steve Bliss wrote: <SNIP> (...) I personally think the # for hex numbers is a mildly bad idea. The currently accepted way to specify hexidecimal values is to (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  [LSC] Colour Definition meta-statement
 
Here's the initial write up for a color definition meta-statement, to be used in ldconfig.ldr and in any model file. The LSC has a couple of outstanding issues with this spec, let's discuss those in follow-up messages. Please respond with any (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Matrix mirroring question
 
This question is mostly directed a developers that have had to deal with mirroring while processing LDraw files, but I welcome comments from anyone. It seems to me that any model specified with a mirror matrix will be mirrored relative to its parent (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Change to existing policy on embedding POV-Ray code in Official Files
 
(...) Save that code! Once an LDraw/POV-Ray library is a going thing (and it looks like that won't take so long), those parts can be submitted there. Steve (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Change to existing policy on embedding POV-Ray code in Official Files
 
(...) True, but the 'embedded code' is still code we are effectively certifying as being good, whether it works strictly within LDraw, or in other GDL/SDL's. (...) Sorry, we never got around to making the list public. I'll work on that. Steve (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Help needed: Are these parts really LEGO?  [DAT]
 
(...) No sweat. I had some other projects, so I didn't hold my breath waiting for you. :) (...) The bricks were made long before Byggis existed. The idea of grooves was yet another thing that Byggis ripped off from LEGO, but Byggis had a different (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Bram's LDraw and LEdit Tutorial
 
Attention all, Thinkquest, the site that hosted Bram's LDraw & LEdit Tutorial, recently deleted this tutorial from their archive. Neither Tim nor I had a hard copy of the webpages. While I've contacted Bram asking him if he still has a copy, I'd (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Vintage lightbrick 2 x 4
 
(...) No, because it assumes you'll be uploading any missing files shortly. Otherwise, the submission process could be really restrictive/annoying, when all files have to be submitted in the exact proper sequence. However, once files are processed (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New colors are defined as what in LDraw????
 
(...) In general, I'd recommend people use the old color codes for the new 'flavors'. In cases where people need to differentiate between the old colors and the new colors, they should investigate MLCAD's and LDLite's custom color options. For (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Adding part updates (and clone parts)
 
(...) snip (...) Hey Don, When I click a [DAT] link the windowbar of the ldglite window says "/Users/cjmasi/Deskt.../mini.dat" which is where the dat file is put before is it handed off to ldglite.
