(...) This is actually very logical. And it fits in the description from the 2000 post pointed to by Lars. So all objects in the mpd are available for recursive children of the main part, being the first place to search. (...) I don't think stuff in (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: POV-Ray file problem when rendering
 
(...) First off, I'm guessing the picture was taken with LDView 2.1, since you don't have 3.0. Obviously it's got problems; I have no way of knowing for sure if those problems are present in LDView 3.0, but it does have completely rewritten file (...)

  Re: POV-Ray file problem when rendering
 
Thanks for the tips and help. I opened the file with LDView last night and the road/sidewalk/stopli...posts(they are all part of one file) file couldn't be opened. It gave me an error with the line specifying that file. Since I had exported all the (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

(...) archives? (Are there list archives?) I remember that the list archives of some LDraw-based mailing list were public and contained the email addresses of the people sending messages to the list. That's a sure recipe for lots of spam. --Travis (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) That is a two pass algorithm. It's optimised by only searching files that have already appeared but the search in stage II is a second pass. Tim (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MPD file loading search order

  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
(...) It seems to me that an MPD is functionally equal to a disk folder which has been added to the (beginning of the) search path for parts. No more, no less. If a part is found in the search path it is used, if it is not found it is ignored (with (...) (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Position of LDraw.org on Lego Digital Designer
 
Thanks for that Tim. I have never used LDD, as I do not have a machine with the graphic card to run it, so am thankful LDraw will continue to be made available. -Rob A> (18 years ago, 26-Jul-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: MPD file loading search order
 
(...) You're right, but Jacob invented the MPD, so I guess I just followed his wish, though I would have preferred the scoping.
