  Re: Trouble creating building instructions using lpub and mpd file
 
(...) Hi Don, Using MLCad as a benchmark, the name with blanks is *not* enclosed in quotes. I use the remainder of the line, sans end of line as the file name. Alas, my efforts are for naught. L3P quietly ignores the lines that have names with (...) (20 years ago, 8-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Trouble creating building instructions using lpub and mpd file
 
(...) I think you made the right decision, but I have a question. Do the filenames with embedded spaces have quotes around them, or do they just use up all the space to the end of the LDRAW type 1 command line? The reason I ask is because I seem to (...)

  Re: Raytracing a primarily black model
 
(...) Right...I was just wondering if anyone had particular settings they used in POV-Ray that worked well. Otherwise it's just that much trial and error on my part, which is really slow when you're using radiosity. --Bram (20 years ago, 7-Apr-05, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
