  Re: Annoying Reflections
 
(...) Thanks Todd. I never thought of using normals to diffuse reflections. Actually, some turbulence normals might look good on the brown, since it's supposed to be dirt. (...) Already using that. :( (...) I tried that with the last MLCAD scene but (...) (21 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
I just start a new sub-thread to discuss two very important points where I thought over two nights now: The location of the ini file and environment variables! I would not recommend to go with both solutions, because its source for possible errors (...) (21 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New unofficial part: Brick 1 x 1 with Studs on Two Sides (47905)
 
(...) Sven, Thanks for doing this. I think it should be rotated 90 degrees for consistency with 30414 (URL) and 4070 (URL). Once that is done, can you please send to parts@ldraw.org and I'll submit to the parts tracker. Thanks, Chris (21 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Annoying Reflections
 
(...) 2 options (apart from Todd's suggestion): 1. Turn the QUAL value to 1 (first uncommented line on any L3P-generated file) QUAL 2 simply(?) *adds reflections* to parts, while QUAL 3 adds reflections and Lego logos to their studs 2. Look in the (...) (21 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Animation of Mladen Pejic's models
 
(...) Thanks! Ever since I saw LDraw and POV-Ray, I've wanted to make animations like this. It is nice everyone else is into it now too. Hard to say exactly how long it took. Well, it took 3 days of off and on trial and error trying to get alpha (...) (21 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.animation)

  Annoying Reflections
 
Hello all, It's 12:32am right this minute, so this is going to be very short. My bedtime was a looong time ago. But the last thirty minutes have been well-spent: I've redesigned an MLCAD scene and it looks much, much better. Except for one thing. It (...) (21 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

Hi! This looks great. How long did it take exaclty to render it using the grid and in what resolution did you render the images?

  Animation of Mladen Pejic's models

  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
(...) I think you are being a bit unreasonable. The discussion is about a fundamental functionality of LDraw, which has impact on all programs. Agreement is important to ease the life of the end user: *one* place for setup. We try to accomodate (...) (21 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  OFF files ?
 
Has anyone ever made any OFF (object file format) files for LEGO pieces? They're basically big files with lists of vertices to draw when making a wireframe. See here for examples: (URL) there converters to make them from LDraw parts? I'm in a (...) (21 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Question on using stl2dat.exe
 
Hi I have a question on using stl2dat.exe I have a stl file of my new train wheel that I would like to make into dat file. The conversion seems to work okay, but it's the wrong size size as my stl file has mm units. My question is this: Can I edit (...) (21 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Cool. I'm anxious to see it. I've built most of my MLCAD scene for it already - as soon as you release I'll put it to work and make 'em sweat. :) There's just one thing about this include file that is bad but indirectly very good: it makes my (...)
