 | | Minifig heads with torus primitives
|
|
There's been some discussion in the past about updating the 3626 parts to use the torus primitives. Well, here they are (at least for some of the patterns), now these files just need reviews on the parts tracker. (2 URLs) I haven't uploaded all of (...)

Hi All, I added support to LPub for POV-Ray 3.5 and 3.6. I was trying to use MEGA-POV 1.1, but it seems to have stopped supporting the find_edges facility. Anyone know how to do the find_edges in these newer renderers. Kevin (20 years ago, 2-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hi, were there some discussions about incorporating part lengths into the part properties? I mean hoses, strings, cables, tubes etc. The length is an important property when it comes to making an inventory, but I think it's important also for (...) (20 years ago, 2-Sep-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
