  "Studless" hinges?
 
I'm referring to part 4592.dat (Hinge Control Stick Base). When I render (POV-Ray 3.6) images with this part with the studs setting set to 0, only the top portion of the part is showing. When I looked at the part in MLCad I can see that it uses a (...) (17 years ago, 22-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  POV Help Needed  [DAT]
 
I have made a utility that makes minifig head patterns go POV. For example, the .dat line 4 4 0 15 -13 0 16 -13 -1.750 15.75 -12.652 -1.750 14.75 -12.652 is translated to cylinder { <0,0,0>,<0,17,0>,13.001 clipped_by { union { prism {linear_sweep (...) (17 years ago, 22-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Is there a tool Head-Generator?
 
Hello Bernd, (...) Quad2dat ((URL) has a template for minifig heads. Never used it for heads but should work fine. Caution: - Some operations crash Quad2dat. So save often under different names. - If you use zoom factor for your background image, (...) (17 years ago, 20-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Is there a tool Head-Generator?
 
Hello, is there any existing tool for making patterns on minifig heads? I mean like you can scan a head, make a plan (2D) pattern in Ldraw/MLCAD and than the tool will lay it over the head surface (3D). This would be a great tool to make head (...)

  Re: SR 3D Builder Version 0.2.2.9 Available
 
Hi as someone told, I'm using Microsoft DirectX 9 program interface in my program. I cannot use OpenGL becouse my known of C++ are not good and, belive it or not, I'm using VisualBasic.NET for developing. The problem is that I've to write a custom (...) (17 years ago, 14-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Sergio, I understand very well that for now you focus on the core of your program... but when you are something working it would be nice to have your program work on lower end hardware ;o) Philo (17 years ago, 12-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I also failed at the point of the graphic card. I have Radeon 9250. This could be a good program, but it requires very high hardware components. cu mikeheide (17 years ago, 12-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: SR 3D Builder Version 0.2.2.9 Available
 
(...) Sorry, I made an error. The Radeon 9600 does support DirectX9 (I confused it with the 9200). But the board does only support shader model 2.0. So the failure might be the result of the dev using an higher version shader model. (17 years ago, 9-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: SR 3D Builder Version 0.2.2.9 Available
 
(...) De developer is probably using the DirectX 9 interface, GeForce2 and Radeon 9600 don't support hardware DirectX 9. LDView etc uses OpenGL, which is less picky because it's backwards compatible as long you don't use any fancy effects. (17 years ago, 9-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: SR 3D Builder Version 0.2.2.9 Available
 
(...) I have the same problem here... but with a rather old Radeon 9600 board. Philo (17 years ago, 9-Jan-08, to lugnet.cad)
