  Re: Using Blender to animate Ldraw models
 
(...) Sorry, I didn't find anything to access that function. It might actually be neat to do at rendering stage, and a somewhat similar effect can be reached using subsurf and creases.. not quite right, though. (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Feature suggestion - auto-add optional line
 
If I have two triangles selected A-B-C and B-C-D adding a conditional/optional line primitive should pre-populate the dialog boxes with B-C-A-D (18 years ago, 17-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: Hangin' around
 
(...) I agree (mostly), which is why LDView doesn't support JPEG snapshots, even with color subsampling disabled. Implementing JPEG support would be fairly easy, but I've always felt that it wasn't appropriate. Having said that, I don't personally (...) (18 years ago, 16-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) which IMO are so detrimental for all pictures containing high frequencies (=sharp edges). PNG is lossless, and doesn't generate anything like that. I know what I would use... JPEG is (maybe?) good for continous color changes, ie photos. (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)

(...) hmm ... the renderings are in .bmp and the zipper reduces file size from say 3841 KB to 1629 KB. I could convert them to .png while .jpg is out of question because of the artefacts. will take a bit though. w. (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)
