  Re: lugnet.cad.dev (2004.03.03.1000) #9551 (1 article)
 
(...) Well, there is Mac OS 8-9 and Mac OS X. Mac OS 8-9: The search path for the ini/pref file is: /System Folder/Preferences There is no where else it should be saved. Andrew can tell you what the format is (I don't think it is xml/plist). Mac OS (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Animation using Datsville
 
(...) Yes, I just did this yesterday. I'm now able to render Datsville using qual > 0 but without studs. I'f I turn studs on, POV-Ray fails with an out of memory error. This happens at about 2 GB of memory used. Even with my page file jacked up to 3 (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  MLCad.ini 2004-01Update Now Available
 
Hi, I just updated the MLCad.ini file accordingly to the latest LDraw.org parts update 2004-01. The .ini file defines the parts available in MLCad's minifigure generator. Download the file from my website: www.holly-wood.it/mlcad-en.html The update (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad.mlcad) ! 
 
  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
(...) You're welcome. I chose C rather than C++ because L3P is still also compiled with 1988 TurboC. L3Lab and LDrawSetup is C++, but can easily interface to a lib in C. You can write a wrapper class if you think it's necessary. (...) But of course (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
(...) Sure. (...) OK. (...) Fine. (...) I think so too. Users will also have the option to use the new app LDrawSetup, which can setup LDrawDir, SearchDirs, LgeoDirectory, MIME-types. /Lars (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
(...) It's no problem handling the \ or /'s. We do that all the time already in our parts referencing e.g. S\3039S01.DAT, we do manage to find the subpart on unix too :-) My library reads env vars and ini files in any format and converts it to the (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
(...) No, but leading blanks would be preserved as well... (...) Isn't that what %ALLUSERSPROFILE% is for? (...) LDRAWINI is just an opportunity for quickly temporarily using another specific ldraw.ini file. /Lars (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
(...) Oh yeah. One other thing about an ldraw.ini located on a central server. I'd prefer to leave the client OS up to the user. This reinforces my case for the <LDRAWDIR>parts path format without the nasty OS specific slash character. Enjoy, Don (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAWPREDIRS LDRAWPOSTDIRS - additional search paths
 
(...) I agree, and prefer <> around all tags. (...) Ah, but what about leading blanks. ;^) Nevermind, I don't think you can create an absolute path that starts with leading blanks. (...) But wait. The reason given for looking in LDRAWDIR is for a (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: "Illusions"
 
Couple of things: 1. Where I said "By setting the transparency and transmit values high", I meant "By setting the transparency and *filter* values high", 2. Let me once again point out that CGI and real objects might look the same, but often act (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: "Illusions"
 
(...) Looking at your file made me notice something that tells me definitely that you and David are correct. I never noticed before that there is a filter value in there after the rgb vector. Naturally that would skew things a bit. So David was (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: "Illusions"
 
(...) Well, let me try it. I tried RGB values for the flames of 1,0,0 - 0,1,0 - 0,0,1 1,1,1 - 0,0,0 respectively.

  Re: "Illusions"
 
(...) I've played around with this a bit and I think what is happening is that you're trying to accomplish several things at once, and some collide with others. By setting the transparency and transmit values high, you're bascially instructing the (...) (21 years ago, 3-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: "Illusions"

I did, however, study theatrical lighting design in college, so I have some solid knowledge about how light works. For instance, if you place an object (...)
