(...) Sorry for the smartypants non-answer, but you'd probably find it easier going to just model the minifg in Maya to begin with. I think someone even had a tutorial on how to do this somewhere, though I can't remember the link offhand. Maybe it (...) (19 years ago, 30-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

This is a cool little part that can work as an escape wheel for a clock. I wanted a dat file for it, but nobody seems to have made one, so I made my own. This is my first try at making a dat part, so please let me know if I made some mistakes. (...) (19 years ago, 29-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

(...) It's certainly theoretically possible to convert much of the geometry with high polygon counts. LDraw primitives are such that a smart converter can use aribtrary complexity for cylinders, spheres, tori, etc. Having said that, it doesn't sound (...)

Hey, I've been stuck with this problem for a while, so now I've come here for a discussion. It's quite simple actually, but I must say that I'm fairly new in the 3d world so I might have missed something crucial here. 1. I've made a simple minifig (...)

(...) Yep, looks good. I did notice that the January 2000 MOTM entry has a broken link for its actual image while browsing, but all the others I looked at worked fine. --Travis (19 years ago, 29-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) You take the cross product of two of the sides of the triangle, this will give the vector perpendicular to the triangle plane: (URL) will point either upwars or downwards. Unless your triangle is in a known winding state there's no way to (...) (19 years ago, 28-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad)

I get the same error when I try to click on the voting page: (URL) It might dissapear when some entries are added... Btw, the guidelines of MOTM say that we should send in ldr, mpd or dats, and you will render them from three different angles.. Is (...) (19 years ago, 29-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)

(...) Hi Niels, There isn't really a meaningful way to get an angle out of a plane defined by three points. What would the angle mean? The xyz, angle formula in MLCad just says rotate the vector angle degrees around the vector xyz but in the case of (...) (19 years ago, 29-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Heh, probably ;-) Well, perhaps I got the math part, and definition process a bit mixed up: I'd just like to have a program that, from a three coordinates on a plane, can give me a rotation vector+angle that I can enter in MLCad... And I'm a (...) (19 years ago, 29-Nov-05, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
