  Re: little help with rendering
 
(...) What software systems are you using for your rendering? Dave! follow-ups to the lugnet.cad.ray-tracing group. (19 years ago, 2-Sep-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: little help with rendering
 
(...) Vineet, This post belongs in the lugnet.cad newsgroup so I have moved the thread across. Unfortunately I can't help you with your question without more information. Tim (19 years ago, 2-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad)

@ (URL) Dave Schuler> Never seen that before, quite interesting. @ (URL) Mladen Pejic> Many MOCs that are new or that i did'nt previously noticed. I really like the M:Tron OrcFish. I have downloaded several MPDs, they are great. Can i make one (...) (19 years ago, 2-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  Re: Newbie questions about Lego CAD
 
(...) I'm still working on this modell, slow, but sure.. I've found a solution for the above problem: I 'created' a dat-file for the complete turntable. Well, 'created' is a bit exaggerated, I just 'hacked' the both part-files via copy&paste to a (...) (19 years ago, 2-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

  LDGLite 1.0.18 for OS X now sets LDRAWDIR correctly
 
Thanks to Erik Knopp we discovered that the set-ldrawdir.command script that shipped with LDGLite 1.0.18 was not correctly setting the ldrawdir value for users who placed their ldraw directories in their user libraries (~/Library/ldraw). That error (...) (19 years ago, 2-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: The LDraw MOCs tour
 
(...) Heck this is right up my alley! Here's the link: * (URL) 13 MOCs, most are variations on the Blacktron theme * The as-yet-not-formally-released clone.dat library is needed * Extensive (bordering on exclusive) use of unofficial parts! Thanks (...) (19 years ago, 2-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)
 
  The LDraw MOCs tour
 
Hi All, Please post in this thread if your website has more than 10 LCAD-ed MOCs. Please precise: * webpage URL * number of MOCs, plus eventually archive format and size * LDraw Update needed * comment about the usage of unofficial parts I start (...)

  Re: LDraw Animation - Why MPD?
 
(...) (* off-topic discussion *) To create a matrix the OCaml code is: let x = Array.make_matrix nrow ncol 0.0 I acknowledge: * OCaml is not widely used * even more esoteric than Perl would be a complete turn off * popular is not a word I would (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Bag inventories now available in LDD format!
 
Several industrious guys (Larry, Adrian, Dan, probably some others I'm neglecting) have figured out the part bags that LF is using for its pricing, and how to convert these into files that can be used directly within LEGO Digital Designer! By (...) (19 years ago, 1-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX) !! 
 
  Air Hockey table on LEGO Factory
 
I've made a minifig-scale air hockey table, as well as I could given the LEGO Factory constraints and the desire to keep the price as close to reasonable as I could (which is to say, I built it from a single kit — this was before the bag inventories (...)

  Re: Am I the only person who finds Lego CAD systems infuriating?
 
(...) "Infuriating" is a rather strong word, but I definitely find all the LEGO CAD systems I have tried suboptimal. Unfortunately I'm a lazy bastard who spends more time thinking about how to solve the problems than actually solving them. (...) I (...)

  Re: Dinosaur Body Neck/Tail Ring (40375)
 
(...) Wow, it looks like you got a long way on it. But I don't think I'm the one to finish it at this time... I'm actually using the neck ring for a smokestack on a steam train, and idea I got from Jeremy Rear. -Matt :) ---...--- (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Idea for better LEGO Factory building
 
(...) Me too, actually, as long as no elements not from the palettes are introduced. I may have missed something when I perused the XML looking for things that it might key off, though. (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Surface-only convertion to POV-Ray
 
What tool would convert just the surface information from ldr to pov or lws? Would 3DWin do it? (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Idea for better LEGO Factory building
 
(...) Ah, no, I'm sorry — I didn't test that part. I tested that you can load such a custom .tix file into LDD, add it to your active list just like one of the built-in part sets, and make use of it to build a model. I didn't test that LF will (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Reduced versions of BBB wheels
 
(...) Thanks Tim, yes I believe the originals are from a modelling tool. And I'll be first to admit, mine are not as accurate as the originals, I sacrificed accuracy for size. But they use a lot of primitives, which most LDraw renderers are able to (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Idea for better LEGO Factory building
 
(...) Joe, what did you test? Did you use this small file to try to upload a design to the gallery for others to buy? My concern is that might not work, I couldn't tell what you meant, but if you tested it, coolness! (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Reduced versions of BBB wheels
 
(...) So thats what you and Tim were talkin about yesterday, I was most confused. Your new versions look as good as the originals, so the reduced file size was deinatly worth doing. The originals were huge (some sort of conversion from the CAD (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
