  Re: Let there be .space
 
(...) Awhile I ago, I created a translation library, to allow people to use Anton's parts in L3P-generated POV files (or, eventually, to generate L3P-like output, but referencing Anton's parts via the translation library). See (URL). Would such a (...) (20 years ago, 14-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New game: Orphan part of the week
 
(...) That's just too funny of a vision not to snicker at. Thanks. (although the Pepsi in my nose isn't going to leave a mark, is it?) (...) I would... although it might be worth dropping a note to the last known addy for John Van Z, after that, if (...) (20 years ago, 14-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  New game: Orphan part of the week
 
dear authors, I thought al lot about hold voted parts an orphans over the last couple of weeks. getting a hold vote at the PT to me is almost a slap in the face therefore I try to fix my parts as soon as I can. at the same time I'm also aware that (...)

  Re: Nice Viper
 
(...) Thanks Darrell, I was hoping to sell more than one model too, but first I need to buy more parts to make a second one and the instructions. Once I have this finsihed I may be able to invest some money and buy the parts for 25 cars directly (...) (20 years ago, 14-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Nice Viper
 
Misha, As an AFOL, CAD teacher, Mopar nut, and Le Mans fan, all I can say is HOLY CRAP that's a great MOC! Have you thought about advertising (once you're ready to sell) in Viper magazine? When you can afford a $70,000 sportscar you get your own (...) (20 years ago, 13-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Nice Viper
 
(...) Hi all, This is my first post on lugnet, so don't blame me if anything goes wrong :-) First of all, thank you for the complements on my cadwork, I plan on selling this model in the future, so I don't publish the actual file yet. Therefore, all (...) (20 years ago, 13-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) We're doing everything we can to secure that, behind the scenes, although we don't yet have it, it's only a communication issue, we're pretty sure. I'd rather not go into more detail than that for privacy reasons. (...) That's a key point. We (...) (20 years ago, 13-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) Having an official reference implemention would put us in a better position in several ways. For the parts library, we could resolve a number of nagging issues, like the dithered-colors-have...e-subfiled restriction. For the rendering (...)

  Re: Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) You have some valid points here but I want to respond to this one specifically. The copyright decision has been made. It was finalized a month and a half ago. What are we waiting for? We're are waiting for consent from the Jessiman's to go (...) (20 years ago, 13-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) I never knew James; I became aware of LDraw a long time after he has passed away. I have no idea what would be best for the file system, the prog, to honour his accomplishments ... actually I don't care about much. I'm not very good in this (...)

  Re: Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) Excellent point. However there are a lot of (in some ways incompatible) dialects of C. There ARE reference implementations for things like all the Java components (the javac compiler, the java jvm, the jms messaging, jca, the rmi server, etc (...)

  Re: Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) Why have a replacement at all? The file format stands by itself. There's no reference complier for C code, no reference viewer for the PNG format, and no reference CAD program for the DXF format, why should there be one for the LDraw system? (...)

  Re: Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) IIRC, the limit was only on the size of the root directory -- but I could well be wrong. I think there are two separate, and related, questions here: Do we want to keep supporting DOS as a platform? Do we want to keep supporting LDraw 0.27? (...)

  Who Uses Original LDraw? (Was: ... Rocket Launch Pattern)
 
(...) Willy, You really got a good point here. I don't know if there is anyone that still uses original LDraw. And, I don't think the LDraw parts library is LDraw compatible anyway. At least not running under DOS - I think there was a limit of 2000 (...) (20 years ago, 12-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Brick 1 x 6 x 5 with Rocket Launch Pattern – RELOADED
 
Hi folks, I overhauled the Brick 1 x 6 x 5 with Rocket Launch Pattern - 3754p90.dat. (URL) Although this is the re-engineering of an existing LEGO part, it will NOT be submitted to the LDraw Parts Tracker for certification. It would never make it (...)

  Nice Viper
 
I was browsing Brickshelf when I saw this (URL) only is it a nice model and nice renders the thing that struck me most was how much work must have gone into placing and rotating the parts into their non-standard positions Tim (20 years ago, 11-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Let there be .space
 
(...) I think I downplayed the differences between Anton's parts and Ldraw. The Ldraw library is made up of lines, triangles, etc that represent walls. The parts are "hollow". Anton's parts represent cylinders, cubes, spheres, etc. Anton's parts are (...) (20 years ago, 11-Dec-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.cad)
