  Re: LDRAW Package format?
 
(...) Sven, What might be better than sending a viewer app each time awould be send a person an LDR/MPD file and a link to a server running a viewer, perhaps an pared-down version of the java app mentioned in this post: (URL) That would definitely (...)

  Re: LDRAW Package format?
 
(...) Ldglite wouldn't be a good choice (for a packaged solution) -- it needs glut32.dll along with the main ldglite.exe file. But it would be a good choice for a program someone could just grab, unzip, and run. If you pointed them at the download. (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAW Package format?
 
(...) Ldglite is still fairly primitive. For Windows, it's basically just an executable and a dll. If you don't give it an ldraw path, it should just look in the directory containing the model, and in the model file itself (if it's an MPD). Is that (...)

  Re: Massive LDraw file repository
 
I always thought of the MLDFR to look something like this: (URL) (click on the models!) The pictures of the models are clickable and link directly to the Ldraw files. This is merely a small test. We could make all catalogues clickable. If we'd get (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: LDRAW Package format?
 
(...) Exactly this is my problem. It is hard to explain all this to someone who has never heard of LDRAW. What I imagine is something like a (*.zip?)package containing the model file, the parts and the viewer. You just have to send this package per (...)

  Re: Proposed new meta-command: !STANDALONE_LDR
 
(...) This is a bit of a problem for me too. I've written scripts to import and export ldraw data from Blender, and naturally I built a model in Blender following that.. but now I'm not allowed to share the original Blender model without removing (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Proposed new meta-command: !STANDALONE_LDR
 
I'd like to propose the creation of a new meta-command. It is as follows: 0 !STANDALONE_LDR The zero at the beginning of this command MUST be the first byte of the model file. LDraw viewing programs can look for the presence of this command at the (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAW Package format?
 
(...) I forgot to mention that the above programs will of course only work if he creates a directory somewhere that contains P and PARTS sub-directories, and then sets that as his LDraw directory in MLCad and/or LDGLite. --Travis (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAW Package format?
 
(...) I'd say your best bet for that is likely MLCAD or LDGLite. Not sure if LDGLite likes directories inside MPDs, but there's a reasonably good chance it will work. On a related note, have you tried using LDGLite or LDView as the renderer in LPub? (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: ldglite for Solaris 10 Install procedure
 
Yes one could do that. But as compilation is a one time thing and they would still have the distribution in case they mauled it, I didn't feel it necessary to do it that way. (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  New LDraw Tool
 
With this tool you can create 4-4edge.dat that is cutted in y-direction at the high you want (circlecut.xls) and a 4-4cyli.dat that is also cutted in y-direction at the high you want (cylindercut.xls). Hopefully this works also for english version (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad)

Hi Orion, Thank you! So I just need a good viewer for step-by-step instructions! Leg Godt -Sven (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDRAW Package format?
 
(...) Who said that? It's not specifically disallowed in the MPD spec and LDView/MLCad both work fine with s/ and 48/ in the file names. I just tested LDView by changing the LDRAW directory to an empty directory and used a self contained MPD file (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDRAW Package format?
 
Hi everybody, yesterday someone sent me an e-mail and asked for the instructions of one of my models. I asked myself: Shall I render all the steps of the instructions via LPub - which takes a long time? Or shall I just send him the mpd-file and a (...)
