  Steering Committee candidate Orion Pobursky - backgrounder and position statement
 
In light of the fact that other candidates are doing write ups with regards to their candidacy, I think it would be appropriate for me to do one. -- I've been an LDraw user since 1998 but I didn't start actively participating until Jan of 2002.

  Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal?
 
(...) It did for me. When MLCad found the refernce to 973p11.dat and asked if I wanted to upgrade, it changed all the "973p11.dat" references to "973p1a,.dat" references. Note the ",". -Orion (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Re: Animation using Datsville
 
(...) On second thought, this would be a bad idea, because objects outside the view cone could affect things, like reflections, shadows, and fog (important!!!). (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Animation using Datsville
 
(...) True, but that would be an example of sloppy modeling on the part of the author ;) . (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Animation using Datsville
 
(...) It's not exactly surprising that it worked ok, but if he didn't include any MPD support, then the results aren't necessarily correct. Since he presumably only pays attention to the locations of parts that he's willing to box, the references to (...) (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Animation using Datsville
 
(...) It worked fine for me. But then, I had to split it up into sections, just like Orion did. (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: New experimental LeoCAD parts update available
 
(...) Are the parts compatible? Can they be batch-converted? (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.leocad)
 
  Re: Animation using Datsville
 
(...) What I meant was that this should be done by POVray within the .pov file, not in the the .ldr file. It is my understanding that one can put ifpov & ifnotpov statements into an .ldr file. They are, however, intended to be used solely by POVray. (...) (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Multiple MovedTo Arguments Really Legal?
 
(...) Sorry, Tore, but this usage was unavoidable. This isn't a normal part-move, the migration from 973p11 to 973p1a, 973p1b, and 973p1c is fixing an anomoly in the parts library. 973p11 is coded so that the undecorated surfaces of the part are a (...) (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Steering Committee candidate Tim Courtney - backgrounder and position statement

In my view, when thinking about steering committee candidates, it's important to think about what their approach to (...) (21 years ago, 6-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX) ! 
 
  Steering Committee candidate Ahui Herrera - backgrounder and position statement
 
Hello all, I remember a post or maybe an email between me and Tim C. on the issue of documenting all the Offical LEGO sets in LDraw. It was something that I wanted to do back in 1999 when I first encoutered LDraw. (I love documenting stuff). I had (...) (21 years ago, 5-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)

  Re: Animation using Datsville
 
(...) All I did was MPD the Town sections and then ran the MPDs through LDBoxer. I tried to run an MPD of the entire Town.ldr file but it was really slow and LDBoxer exited with a access violation. -Orion (21 years ago, 5-Mar-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
