Position statement Gudday people, I guess you might want to know who is Andrew and where does he stand? I’m an Australian who just happens to be the author of Mac Brick CAD (MBC). My personal involvement with LDRAW first began back in 2001 when I (...) (21 years ago, 13-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad)

| | [Parts Tracker] No "Pattern" file numbers
|
|
Parts Authors: Please do not post "pattern" subfiles with filenames like p*.dat or p_*.dat. The filename for every subfile (ie, files in parts\s) should start with the number of a related part. Instead of "p_mtron.dat", it should be "3068p68a.dat". (...) (21 years ago, 13-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw) !

Hi, A long overdue fix for Bill of Materials images is working. Jake I'm really sorry that this took so long to fix, especially in light of the grief you got for *not* having BOM images in your book. I've also modified LPub to use subdirectories for (...) (21 years ago, 12-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I've been seeing various bionicle parts pop up in this brickshelf gallery, but I've never seen posts on lugnet or any contact info from Hadee. Anyone know if these are available some where or how to contact the author ? -JSM (URL) (21 years ago, 12-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general)

(...) Just a note: in this situation (which apparently is not actually the situation), this file should have used a tilde (~), not an underscore. Underscores are for "official part shortcuts", which are relatively rare creatures. Steve (21 years ago, 12-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I've never used "CMDLINE -c" except under protest, and dislike its inherent obsolesence. One could argue that almost EVERY part occurs in only one colour the first time it is produced. As soon as the second colour is produced the dat file is (...) (21 years ago, 12-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) Well, I did some tests walking the tree and printing out all line type 2 as cylinders, but I didn't think it looked to well. Mostly because at some edges you only see 1/4 of the cylinder, and at other edges you see 3/4 of the cylinder. L3P (...) (21 years ago, 12-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

Orion has been a great contributor to the Ldraw community, technically with software, parts, website and documentation, and motivationally with much of the same. I support Orion as a member of the LDraw Steering Comittee. Kevin (21 years ago, 11-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
