  Re: Parts editing made easy (well, easier)
 
(...) Thanks for the encouragement! Multiple meshes in a single 3DS or ASE file is now supported. I came across a nasty bug in the 3DS export from 3dsmax that took me a whole day to straighten out. It turs out that if any of the mesh objects (...) (20 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: TrueType font converter?
 
(...) Your best bet to get a quick result would probably be to look in some 3D graphics libraries for OpenGL and find working code to get a TT glyph out into a mesh model. Exporting a flat mesh model to LDraw format yourself is not very difficult, (...) (20 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  TrueType font converter?
 
Does anyone know of a utility to convert TT font glyphs to LDraw DATs? I would be interested in looking at writing such a beast, if it hasn't already been done. I'm looking at this to be able to create LDraw representations of custom stickers. And (...) (20 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: No mention of scale in file format doc
 
(...) But what's required by/for the parts library is different from what the basic file format spec lays out. I think it is better (more flexible, easier to write) for the file format to be flexible. When I'm doing rough coding of new parts, I (...) (20 years ago, 25-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: No mention of scale in file format doc
 
(...) All BFC requires is uniform, non-bowtie winding. While currently the spec doesn't require winding, I see no reason not to revise the new spec to make it a requirement.
