  Re: Cross platform GUI
 
(...) The look and feel is one of the reasons why I rejected GTK (...) To me, compile times are a non issue. However the non-free nature of Qt leaves a bad taste in my mouth (and I not even a Open Source zealot). I can however develop a Qt based (...)

  Re: Experimenting with camera.dat and look_at.dat
 
(...) It would be nice if there were also a part used to store points. It would then be declared at the end of the .pov file as a uniquely named vector. (20 years ago, 25-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Spline-based Road Creation
 
(...) The next things I'm working on are the superelevation calculations, as well as an automatic intersection generator. (20 years ago, 25-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Rendering implementation details
 
(...) You're right about the performance hit. We've discussed this issue previously on lugnet, because quite a few of the renderers out there use opengl (ldview, leocad, ldglite, Mac Brick Cad...) Source code is available for all of these if you (...) (20 years ago, 25-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: need help with instructions
 
(...) When you make your LDraw model add STEPS for each image of the BI you want to create. Once you have that use LPub to create the BI images. Depending on the number of STEPS you have in the model, LPub will create "x" number of images each one (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Rendering implementation details
 
(...) Someone once suggested to me (Dan from Microsoft maybe?) that given today graphics libraries, one could probably get away with ignoring op-lines altogether and use edge detection. This would present a potential problem since edge color is (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Rendering implementation details
 
I was envisioning how an LDraw renderer would be implemented if it were done with OpenGL, and I've arrived at some questions that I can't answer for myself. I'm particularly wondering about line type #5, the optional line. According to the LDraw (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Experimenting with camera.dat and look_at.dat  [DAT]

  Re: Experimenting with camera.dat and look_at.dat
 
(...) Yes,I am very well aware of the multitude of camera settings POV offers, and I haven't yet decided which way to go. The fastest way may be to run my own race using my own META statements: 0 LDA CAMERA.POSITION x y z 0 LDA CAMERA.LOOKAT x y z 0 (...) (20 years ago, 24-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Cross platform GUI
 
Personally I don't think using GTK under Windows is a good idea. I've worked with it before and even released an application that used it and you won't believe the amount of people that have trouble using a Windows application with controls that (...)
