  New to the world of LDraw
 
Hello, A few of you may recognize me from other forums. I am in the very early stages of learning MLcad. Meanwhile, I'm having install problems (I'm using the disk that came with the Software Powertools book). I get an invalid path error when I try (...) (18 years ago, 23-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: // Empty model errors in POV-Ray
 
(...) I ended up uninstalled everything on my C drive and deleteing all traces of the ldraw apps on the C drive and then reinstalled the ALL IN ONE INSTALLER and worked my way thru each one (MCLAD, L3PAO, and POV) to ensure that they were all (...) (18 years ago, 23-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Animation problem
 
Hi, I've made a simple animation in PovRay. I've edited the file coming out from L3P with these camera commands: camera { location <52+ 550 * sin(2*pi*clock),-140,5+ 550 * cos(2*pi*clock )> sky -y right -4/3*x look_at <52,-60,0> angle 65 rotate (...) (18 years ago, 22-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Bionicle masks available to convert to .dat
 
I have multiple extras of the first line of Bionicle masks. They are in a box waiting to be shipped to whomever is willing to do the work. I don't expect them back. Cut 'em up if you need. It's a needed sacrifice for a great cause. I'm even going to (...) (18 years ago, 21-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: // Empty model errors in POV-Ray
 
(...) I recenlty ran into this same problem becuase I have 2 LDRAW folders on my computer.

  Re: // Empty model errors in POV-Ray
 
Ok, I removed all spaces from the file names and folders. Still no go. Same exact results. The top section of the files are just header info, aren't they. They all start with the // which, if I remember right, means that those lines aren't being (...) (18 years ago, 20-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: // Empty model errors in POV-Ray
 
(...) You could also try quoting the long file names like C:\LDRAW\L3P.exe "I:\LDraw\MODELS\OFFICIAL MODELS\4883-Designer Set\4883-C Spaceship Racer.ldr" "C:\LDRAW\POV-Ray Files\4883-C Spaceship Racer.pov" -cg45,45,0 -ld -lg45,0,0 -lg30,120,0 (...) (18 years ago, 20-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: // Empty model errors in POV-Ray
 
(...) First thing you would try is avoiding spaces in file namnes and directories. L3P is a DOS program, and DOS programs generally hate spaces. /Tore (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 (...)
