  Re: LSC - current status?
 
(...) I'm not Willy, but I think I can still provide a pretty good answer to all your localization questions. (...) Allow non-English speakers to be able to search for things in their own language when using a modeling program (presumably MLCad). I (...) (18 years ago, 16-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I have applied Robert's Rules in order to get this restarted. I will call for a vote as soon as Orion is back from his trip to sea. (...) This topic has not been discussed. For me personally it is for lack of interest. I have questions about (...) (18 years ago, 16-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Suggested New Primitive: 4-4cyl12.dat (was: More cylinder primitives wanted)
 
(...) I thought of that, but liked the idea of more descriptive names, like the rect*.dat series. The '1' would in this case stand for number of discs, and '2' for number of edges. But I could definifly live with cyla, cylb etc too. (...) Same here. (...) (18 years ago, 15-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: New Part: 3069bpw0.dat - Tile 1 x 2 with "Wanted - Flatfoot Thomsen" Pattern
 
(...) This kind of part can really point out the usefulness of having a viewer that automatically downloads unofficial files: 21 sub-parts. Yowzers! (See (URL) here> if you're confused.) Running with my dev code, I just created a file that (...) (18 years ago, 15-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: New Part: 3069bpw0.dat - Tile 1 x 2 with "Wanted - Flatfoot Thomsen" Pattern
 
(...) Wow. How did you create this masterwork? Was it all manual, or did you use specialized tools? That's a great amount of detail! Hmm, another 8 letters to go, and you'd have a complete alphabet... Steve (18 years ago, 15-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Suggested New Primitive: 4-4cyl12.dat (was: More cylinder primitives wanted)
 
(...) How about N-4cyla.dat, N-4cylb.dat, etc? Although I have to admit -- I'm not a huge fan of saving a few lines of code here and there. When two such primitives are adjacent, I always have to double-check which one includes the edge(s). (...) (...) (18 years ago, 15-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView
 
(...) Any error or warning in LDView can be disabled simply by unchecking the appropriate type from the list on the errors and warnings dialog box. Additionally, warnings aren't displayed at all by default. You have to check the "Show warnings" (...) (18 years ago, 15-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  New Part: 3069bpw0.dat - Tile 1 x 2 with "Wanted - Flatfoot Thomsen" Pattern
 
hi folks, I just uploaded this part to the PT: (2 URLs) considering the sheer number of subparts it'll take probably ages to put it through the reviews but inlining the letters would have blown the file to some 250 KB. 8-) w. (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)

  Suggested New Primitive: 4-4cyl12.dat (was: More cylinder primitives wanted)  [DAT]
 
(...) There is no rule against primitive files calling to other \P files. I didn't have to look very long to find one. And if we inlined them, I suspect the primitive substitution in L3P will not work until L3P is updated to support the new ones. (...) (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView
 
(...) I can definitely see where you're coming from, and there's certainly a danger that having a viewer transparently support unofficial parts will encourage their use without being included inside the MPD file. Having said that, I see a whole lot (...) (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView
 
(...) They'd definitely go into a special directory. (Right now in my development code that directory is u_parts in the ldraw dir. It would probably become "Unofficial Parts", or something similar, since LDView isn't going to work on a system that (...) (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView
 
(...) Hi Travis, I have to second Damien's view but I can think of a possible way around it. If you were to download the unofficial parts into a distinct directory (eg. in the ldview dir tree) and then call them from there it would allow an (...)

  Re: Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView
 
(...) Hi Travis, It's good to know you still think about adding even more features to LDView. At some feature-complete point many programmers prefer to switch to a newer thus more exiting development rather than cherrish and grow the baby. However, (...)

  Concerning LDView (was: Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView)
 
Hi Travis, this option seems very useful, but I am still unable to run the newest version of LDView on my computer :o(. Do I need any special drivers etc.? LDView 2 works perfectly. Leg Godt- Sven (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView
 
Sorry to so quickly respond to my own post, but I forgot to mention something. One of the sample models that LDView comes with makes use of a fair number of unofficial parts (15, to be exact). Those parts make use of 14 unofficial primitives and 1 (...) (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Automatic download of unofficial parts in LDView
 
I'm working on a feature in LDView where it will automatically check the parts tracker for unofficial parts when it encounters a file that it can't find. This has the potential to produce a fairly large amount of requests to the parts tracker, so I (...) (18 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
