  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) Actually, that grep doesn't return anything. '^[ \t]*1 24' does return hits from three files, though. Every single place in the library that this is used, it's used in a reference to one of the edge primitives. The edge primitives use color 24 (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) In the case of some kind of direct color, I guess the rendering program is free to do whatever it wants. The simplest action would be to default to black (either LDraw 0, or RGB #000000). I'd be interested to hear what actual rendering (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: RC track now available
 
(...) Hi Thomas, Thanks for using my MOC of the 2859 to create the 9V R/C Track! I downloaded the files from your Brickshelf folder, but there's one file missing : 53404s022.dat Can you upload this one too? I hope to free-up some time this year to (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
Okay... that makes sense. But what if the contrast color for the current file's main color is just an RGB value rather than a color index? What should the subfile's contrast color be set to in that case? Thank you for your help, by the way. >> Mark (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) The contrast color within the subfile would be defined in the normal way - use the main color for the subfile, and look up the contrast color from the color table. The fact that the originating linetype 1 used color code 24 shouldn't matter by (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) Right... but what should the contrast color be defined as within the subfile? The same? >> Mark (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) Not exactly -- just use the current contrast color as the main color for the subfile. Whenever a subfile is rendered, it should already be looking up the local contrast color based on the local main color. Steve (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) Does that mean that it would be appropriate for a renderer to just swap the main and contrast colors when it encounters such a line, or what? I just want know what a renderer is supposed to do. (...) Well, doing grep '^1 24 ' on the parts (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  A small (and my first) train animation done with MLCad
 
Hi all, after playing around with nearly all (common) features in POV-Ray - like radiosity, media, fog etc. - I have finally started the latest excurse into working with the clock variable. Here comes my first small animation movie (1.5 MB) of the (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) It will be the constrast color for the constrast color. Which may be the same as the main color -- but it may not. Also, some viewers (like L3Lab) may balk at rendering a file which uses color 24 in a line type 1. Steve (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) OK, I was partly right. There actually is a standard defined for colour extensions, you can view it here (URL) it only applies to colours defined either in ldconfig.ldr, or in the part files or model files themselves. And it is still up to the (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) Hi Mark, I'm pretty sure there is no standard for that, and it depends on which renderer you use. ROSCO (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

How is the contrast color defined for line type 1, when color=24? >> Mark (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Yes, I realize that. It seems he's not at university any more. I tried www.eniro.no but there were no matches for Fredrik Glöckner.

  Parts Releases and the CA
 
Over the past couple of years releases of new official parts have been less frequent than in the past. LDraw.org would like to apologise or these delays and explain the reason why.
