(...) Nice work M, I think the decision to ditch the top turret was a good call. The new color scheme is great, and so is the swarm pic. So what is next? Some kind of hive-carrer for them? -Keith (20 years ago, 3-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.cad, lugnet.space, FTX)

Tore, Sorry. Things shouldn't be that difficult. I suppose I could have made the Couriership demo easier (I'll have to fix the 404). Anyway, the minifig should be alot easier, because everything except Anton's Library and POV-Ray is included. Easy (...) (20 years ago, 3-Mar-05, to lugnet.animation, lugnet.cad.ray)

Awesome! Very inspiring! Not to be a downer, but after the rec room (and highly important kitchen) I'd love to see a quiet study/lego room : ) God Bless and thanks for sharing, Nathan (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, FTX)

DAY 1, 20:00 Posted the following question to Lugnet. "I have POV-Ray 3.1 and 3.5, ML-Cad, L3Lab, L3P, L3PAO, and of course the LDraw package on a PC with AMD1100, 256 Mb RAM and a very old video adapter. What more do I need to make animations like (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.animation)

(...) Thanks! I'll leave that article up indefinitely, in case the subject comes up again. (Funny how my work always comes into my Lego hobby. Or is it the other way around? I can never tell. I guess I'm just a Lego person.) Stefan (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I agree but Stefan gave a compelling argument for 1 LDU = 4 mm so I changed the draft proposal. -Orion (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
|
| |
| | Re: No mention of scale in file format doc
|
|
(...) No, Orion is correct -- for LDraw. By definition, LDraw parts have no gap. 1-stud-wide bricks are 20 LDU - exactly. We *really* don't want to get into a game of trying model real-world dimensions in great detail. That it, unless someone can (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

| | Re: No mention of scale in file format doc
|

(...) I beg to differ. The width of a 1x1 brick is not the same as the spacing between two stud centres. Bricks have a small gap between them, whereas studs are very accurately placed on any brick with more than 1 stud. The LDU unit should be (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

| | Re: No mention of scale in file format doc

(...) Well, yes, and no. The bricks are not nearly as precise as the molds, but the dimensional tolerances for parts must certainly be a lot tighter than the difference between 1/64" and 0.4 mm. That difference is almost a full percent, so there is (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
