  Parts updates
 
No, I'm not here to complain about lack of updates ;o) But it seems that the layout of updates page on LDraw.org ((URL) is completely wrong (tested with Mozilla and IE). Philo (18 years ago, 14-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Settings for LPub using LDView or LDGLite as renderer
 
(...) ...and it did. I succesfully rendered the full instructions for the ever so briljant CAR model using LPub and LDView as renderer. It required fully uninstalling LPub and LDView and removing all entries of the programs in the Windows register. (...) (18 years ago, 14-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Settings for LPub using LDView or LDGLite as renderer
 
(...) Hi Travis! Thanks for your reply. LDView is running smooth. However I still get the errors. So I think the cause is LPub. I will just uninstall everything and then re-install. Perhaps that will work.... Jaco (18 years ago, 14-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Hi, well, the first model is for sure my main model, but I'd like to provide some other views of my main model, too - for example, if my submodels are several modules of a starship, I'd like to be the main model the docked version, and another (...)

  LDraw file for wheel 55981?
 
Is there an existing LDraw version of the 55981 "Wheel 30.4 x 14 with Holes on Both Sides" ((URL) I can't seem to find it in the parts tracker. On the other hand, LDD does have this wheel. Is it possible to convert LDD parts to LDraw format (not (...) (18 years ago, 14-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) I think it should be mentioned that the MPD format was specifically designed to allow you to encapsulate all of the submodels of one single model into a single file for convenient transmission to others. It wasn't designed to allow for (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) If you want to render a sub-model use the MLcad Multi-part export feature to export the sub-model to it's own file, then run that through l3p. ROSCO (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
(...) Or instead of learning POV-Ray code language, just get in the habbit of exporting the scene model (IE the one with all the sub models from inside MPD file assymbled in), and rendering it. Thats the way I do it. Jeffrey Jarvis (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: txt2dat updated
 
(...) Received and uploaded, Mac & Linux users can now download binaries from the main page. I'd just like to thank Jim again for all his help producing this version, and I hope Mac & Linux users can get some good use out of my little program.

  Re: L3P question concerning MPD files
 
L3P just converts the file to POV-Ray format. If you aren't afraid of learning the POV-Ray syntax, you can just edit the files and render whatever you want. James (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  L3P question concerning MPD files
 
Hi, am I mistaken if I presume that L3P doesn't offer any means to render another one than the very first model in an MPD document? If so, are there any tools already to help that? Or is it maybe planned for the next version which I've read about in (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Settings for LPub using LDView or LDGLite as renderer
 
(...) This may be due to a bug in LDView 3.1. However, since LPub isn't listing the LDView executable at the beggining of the command, it seems that something else might also be wrong. Click on the LDView button in LPub, and make sure it's pointing (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Public LDView 3.2 Alpha for Windows
 
(...) This is wicked cool. (I just realized that it works in the pre-alpha Mac build I've been poking at.) Is it or will it be possible to export the light orientation to POV-ray format as with the camera angle? Be well, Jim (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Public LDView 3.2 Alpha for Windows
 
Due to some of the problems that exist in LDView 3.1 (command line snapshots and screensaver preferences), I've decided to do a public alpha release of LDView 3.2. Please note that this version will only run on Windows computers with Unicode (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  Settings for LPub using LDView or LDGLite as renderer
 
Hi there, Just recently I began working again with LPub. I ran in to some problems and cannot seem to set things up properly. Errors: Could not run command"-ca0.1 -cg0.00,0.00,500000.00 -SaveWidth=1280 -SaveHeight=1024 -PreferenceSet=LPub (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)

  TextWrangler LDraw Kit
 
I like (URL) LDraw DesignPad>. However, I do a lot of work in (URL) TextWrangler> on my Mac, so I thought it would be neat if it had more features for working with LDraw files. Towards that end, I've starting putting together an assemblage of (...) (18 years ago, 13-Mar-07, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Version 530 of my Library is available now.
 
(...) Also note that it definitely isn't compatible, and won't work with L3P. However, Anton has an online LDraw converter here: (URL) L3P, the above can't be used with LPub. --Travis (18 years ago, 12-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: POVray LEGO
 
(...) For the short term, yes that's easier. But in the long run that collection of links will get lost. Maybe after you collect the links you can work together with Orion to move all the good bits into the one library so people can still find them (...)
