  Re: Request change to ptreleases.cgi
 
(...) That's one. :) (...) Michael had asked for that awhile ago. (...) Good point, I hadn't thought of that. (...) Hmmm, what *is* up with those dates? I'll go fix'em. (...) Yeah, I dunno. We certainly could go create ZIPs for those old updates. (...) (20 years ago, 29-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: (First post) enter position and rotation dialog
 
(...) What you're trying to do is define a rotation vector, which can also be explained as a "custom-oriented axis". Its origin is always 0,0,0 and it will extend in the direction set by the XYZ coordinates. This way of working is very powerful, (...) (20 years ago, 29-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Licensing Update
 
For those following along, here's a link to previous discussion: (URL) carefully considering everyone's inputs and concerns we have decided to pursue an approach that uses only a user license as the licensing mechanism. However we still feel the (...) (20 years ago, 29-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  What's the name of the little brother of big 24x43 technic wheel? (25x??)
 
(URL) It's the ones that came with the 8879 (?) yellow technic tractor. I was just wondering if somebody could take a look at the tyre and tell me the radius (it's written on it), since the Little People has hidden my own versions, and I need the (...)

  Re: (First post) enter position and rotation dialog
 
(...) Well I'd recommend doing it that way, as it is MUCH easier. The problem moving pieces at strange angles is that the default movement is in x, y or z direction - not in the direction that they are rotated. Remember also that you don't have to (...)

  Re: (First post) enter position and rotation dialog
 
(...) I'm not sure what you're saying here, but I'll take a stab at it anyways. If you highlight a piece that you placed earlier in the list, before you started messing with angles, and then add your new piece there, it'll take it's rotational (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: (First post) enter position and rotation dialog
 
Thanks for the prompt reply. :) I am aware of the rotate buttons, and have been using them allot. I even reset the button for the axis I'm working with to step 1 instead of 15, to try and get it lined up. It's still not working. :) To give you an (...)

  Re: Contributer Agreement Version 3
 
(...) I'm terrible at reading legalese, but I do know that the Disney company has the copyright to all the characters created by Mr. Disney, even though he has been dead for a very long time. This suggests that yes, copyrights in the US and in other (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: cant compile ldglite in gentoo linux
 
(...) Ok, I'll try to fix that in CVS. Meanwhile, what does it print in the console window when it starts up? I like to track the opengl driver developments in the various linux distributions. (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: cant compile ldglite in gentoo linux
 
(...) Yes, now it opens in the right directory. (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Problems accessing ldraw.org
 
Hi Everyone! Been a long time since I've been on. I keep getting the following error when trying to access www.ldraw.org: Warning: mysql_connect(): Too many connections in /usr/www/users/peero...ql.inc.php on line 170 (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: cant compile ldglite in gentoo linux
 
(...) That's what I thought. Try commenting the call to platform_sethome() in main.c and rebuilding. Maybe that'll fix it. (...) I agree. This was a quick hack to appease those icon clicking Mac users until the LDRAW.INI search settings are (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: cant compile ldglite in gentoo linux
 
(...) My home directory. Acctually, I think it's perhaps better to start it from the current directory, instead of the home directory. Maybe it's just me, but I usually start programs from other directories, and the files I want to use are often in (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: cant compile ldglite in gentoo linux
 
(...) Should I make a "somewhat newer stuff" section? :^) (...) That's odd. I may have broken it with my recent tinkering. I think I was trying to make it look in the home directory if it didn't see anything like a dat file on the command line. I (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: cant compile ldglite in gentoo linux
 
It didn't work with 1.0.7 but the daily-CVS version worked! In the webbpage, the lines about the daily CVS should perhaps not be in the section "somewhat older stuff" ;-) It works fine with the l3 parser. But it does not show any thing if I do (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Request change to ptreleases.cgi
 
I like it. One other change you didn't mention is the addition of the BASE downloads. That's also very nice, because it allows an app to bootstrap itself completely, without requiring the user to first install LDraw. (Having said that, I'm not (...) (20 years ago, 27-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: cant compile ldglite in gentoo linux
 
(...) I think this means I need to get an up to date linux box so I can try to resolve the incompatibilities with the newer hardware accelerated opengl drivers and the software rendering offscreen osmesa driver. What version of ldglite is this? 1.0 (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
