  Re: Why LDraw.org doesn't use ldconfig.ldr ???
 
(...) I'm open to improving the unofficial ldliterc.dat colors, but I don't expect we want to use all the default ldlite colors -- unless they were tuned away from the original LDraw (ie, 4-bit VGA) colors. The other issue is if we the built-in (...) (17 years ago, 4-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Why LDraw.org doesn't use ldconfig.ldr ???
 
(...) The actual truth may be lost to the sands of time, but I believe the ldlite colors were possibly copied from the original LDRAW colors, and the ldlite Windows lighting code was matched to that? I know I did a good amount of twiddling in the (...) (17 years ago, 4-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Why LDraw.org doesn't use ldconfig.ldr ???
 
(...) looked at the ldliterc.dat above, and color 7 has the same setting as what is in ldconfig.ldr. However, the actual color being rendered seems too light.

(...) Though the error has been fixed I'm still in favour for the switch for the simple fact that LDView is maintained and updated (and that IMHO it's output looks much smarter) but I'm happy to leave the decision to go/no go to Travis since he has (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
