  // Empty model errors in POV-Ray
 
I'm trying to render some new models I made out of set 4883, but I keep getting this message when I try to load it into POV-Ray: // Empty model. This is listed where the parts should be in the file. This is a standard .ldr file, not a .mpd file. I (...) (18 years ago, 20-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)

  Flexible hose generator enhancement
 
It could be a good idea to keep in memory the last points coordonates inputed in the hose generator. I said that because I use it a lot and I must adjust my hose many times to find the good way and each time I must rewite all coordonates even if I (...)

  Proposal for MLCad.ini Enhancements
 
In the course of writing a minifigure generator for my Bricksmith program, I've really come to appreciate how nifty it is to have something like the MLCad.ini file to work with. I've very grateful to the people who designed and maintain it. However, (...) (18 years ago, 18-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  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)

  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)
 
  Re: Hangin' around
 
(...) Hi Travis, I didn't realise that you could switch off parts of jpeg compression. Very handy to know. I didn't quite spell it out in my previous post but I actually meant for raytraced images rather than general renders. For edge-lined renders (...) (18 years ago, 16-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Hangin' around
 
(...) In my experience JPEG versions of computer-generated pictures only really look good when you turn off color sub-sampling during the JPEG compression. Many (most?) programs that allow you to create JPEG images don't support this option. It also (...) (18 years ago, 15-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
