  Re: *** LDView Version 3.0 Beta 1 Released ***  [DAT]
 
(...) Thanks Travis, i have tested different settings, the wierding appear only if primitive substitution AND specular highlight are on, then it affects any transparent sphere primitive. another simple workaround is to use LDView 2.1 that may be a (...)

  Re: *** LDView Version 3.0 Beta 1 Released ***
 
(...) Thanks for the feedback. I played around, and couldn't get the odd behavior on transparent spheres. Could you send me the dat file, and also let me know if you have tranparent sorting turned on? Also, I assume that you don't get the weirdness (...) (20 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: *** LDView Version 3.0 Beta 1 Released ***
 
(...) Hi Travis, LDView never stops to amaze me :) I have tested dozens of my personal files. my config is win98se,i810,128Mo First impression: faster loading much less swapping more robust more stable Excellent work. May be a bug, may be a feature, (...) (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Like the new layout of the PT activity page
 
(...) I can see how the 'status history' would be interesting, but I use the 'current status' all the time, to help me see what files I should check on. Even when I'm looking at events that are somewhat older. (...) No problem, it's probably a good (...) (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Like the new layout of the PT activity page
 
(...) Steve! The new look is really nice, my only comment is that the content of the "Current Status" column is a bit confusing, because it replicates the current status (the last one) for every row. It would be even more nice if the status column (...) (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad)

  New part: 4876.dat - Fabuland Slide - 1 of 2  [DAT]
 
I've finished the development of this part. It was a bit difficult, especially to measure the curved surfaces and then the Excel acrobatics to generate their Ldraw counterpart. I think the result did worth the effort. I submit the part to part (...) (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Like the new layout of the PT activity page
 
(...) You're welcome. :) Besides looking a little different, the page should also run a little bit faster. Especially if you follow any of the "Events" links from the ptdetails.cgi page. Steve (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad)

  *** LDView Version 3.0 Beta 1 Released ***
 
LDView version 3.0 Beta 1 is now available for public testing, in both source and binary forms for Windows and Linux. You can find both at the new LDView web page on SourceForge.net: (URL) This is an official public beta test for LDView 3.0. LDView (...)

  Re: Part building advice - too many triangles/quads?
 
(...) Shouldn't it be a forward slash (s/6898s01.dat)? Parts use forward slash in the actual part code (which is good, because it makes viewers in other operating systems slightly easier to make). --Travis (20 years ago, 29-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Part building advice - too many triangles/quads?
 
(...) Yes, of course - now where did I leave that backslash? Chris (20 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Part building advice - too many triangles/quads?
 
(...) You can do it in LDAO as well, although there's no direct "round my decimals to 3 places" command. First, open your file in the editor. Second, go to Options | Decimals, and enter 3. Then put a line "0 SCALE 1" at the beginning of the block of (...) (20 years ago, 27-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: LEGOfactory.com launches... and it's big!
 
(...) You're right, the files aren't UTF-8. If anyone is interested, you can convert ISO-8859-1 text to UTF-8 like this: characters from 0-127 (0x00-0x7F) remain the same characters from 128-191 (0x80-0xBF) are prefixed by 194 (0xC2) but otherwise (...) (20 years ago, 27-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Part building advice - too many triangles/quads?
 
(...) Great work. The subpart naming standard(s)n are documented at (URL) So, I'd rather your subpart were named s6898s01.dat. Submitting a new part to the Parts Tracker is easy. You need to register as an LDraw.org user (at (URL)) and then request (...) (20 years ago, 26-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Part building advice - too many triangles/quads?
 
(...) Sorry Orion, I was not aware of that neat feature. I should get out of my LDAO-centric world more often. So, what I meant to say was : "There's this really cool tool called LDraw Design Pad that can do this for you". Chris (20 years ago, 26-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
