  Re: Naming of Power Functions Parts lacks consistency
 
(...) If there are no current votes on the part I suggest to resubmit them. If they have already a certify vote send an email to the admin with a link to the part and the change he should do. I think also "Electric Power Functions" is a good name (...) (17 years ago, 25-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) Thanks Willy! I'll work on this very soon. Kevin (17 years ago, 25-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Naming of Power Functions Parts lacks consistency
 
(...) I should indeed have paid more attention to that. Would it be best to resubmit parts with correct name, or simply (for me!!!) do an admin edit? Philo (17 years ago, 25-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) As will LPub before it is made available to the public. Thus the comment about short sighted. Now that I have an example on what to do, I'll implement that instead. There is one class that will have to be changed, and no one else needs to know (...) (17 years ago, 25-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  Naming of Power Functions Parts lacks consistency
 
Hi, the Power Functions parts currently at the PT are named: * 58119.dat - Electric Power Functions 9V Battery Box (Complete Shortcut) * 58120.dat - Electric Technic Power Functions Medium Motor Complete Shortcut * 58121.dat - Electric Technic Power (...)

  Re: LDraw/CAD people: Who's coming to BrickWorld?
 
(...) Thanks.. It's relaly been a series of things that TLC did that brought me to where I am at. The ones that I mentioned are I guess the main cracks in the "LEGO faith" so to speak. Granted I love some of their new concepts in town, the walking (...) (17 years ago, 25-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.events.brickworld)
 
  Re: LDraw/CAD people: Who's coming to BrickWorld?
 
(...) <big snip> Ahui - sorry to hear you are bumming about TLC and the train stuff. I can't say I understand what you are feeling because I don't worry about the color of my robots and I don't have a bunch of train stuff. But, I do know that (...)

  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) Sorry to everyone else for having this on a public forum, but since Kevin doesn't appear to be receiving my emails, I feel that I need to post this here. I just resent all the messages I've sent you in the past month or so. I strongly suspect (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) Hi Kevin, I bet you've already found what Travis's talking about; if not the tutorial can be found here: (URL) I used <LDRAWDIR>Unofficial_Parts since MLCad was the first prog supporting unofficial parts but agreed with Travis and Allen to (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) Is PARTS.LST the file that gets generated by some DOS utility in the original LDraw distribution? You can't rely on that being present. Not being able to rely on a DOS utility, Bricksmith reads the part library and generates its own XML parts (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  Re: LDraw/CAD people: Who's coming to BrickWorld?
 
(...) I'm leaning 90% towards not attending this year or next or the year after that. =( I'm a bit annoyied with TLC on many issues every since the color change, the "flesh" minifigs and now the end of 9V trains. My heart is just not in it anymore. (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.events.brickworld)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) I understand and respect wisdom of the the LSC's decision to not define where to store unofficial parts. I was wondering if the LSC would consider defining how one defines the paths to unofficial directories? At least that would give us some (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) Hi Travis, I did not get any emails from you about the code tree. Would you please try again? Thanks, Kevin (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDraw/CAD people: Who's coming to BrickWorld?
 
(...) If you're going to schedule your own session for that, it would be awesome to have it on Saturday as I'd love to attend. Let's get a roundtable on the docket too. I'd like to spend a couple hours playing on the laptops and shooting the breeze. (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.events.brickworld)  
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) You're welcome. Can you verify that you got my email messages regarding the source tree you sent me? I never got any responses to the messages I sent you, and I want to make sure they got through. --Travis (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) Hi Travis, Thanks for the help. I have a .pro from Orion. I have to update it, because the list of files has changed, but that should be straight forward. Thank you very much, Kevin (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) Additionally, LDView is hard-coded to look in the <LDrawDir>/Unofficial/Parts and <LDrawDir>/Unofficial/p directories when it doesn't find a part in its search path. It then attempts to download unofficial parts from the part tracker into that (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) The LSC voted on that, and officially declined to specify an official location for unofficial parts. (...) You have to install the dev tools from the OS CD (DVD?) that came with your Mac. They aren't installed by default (which is probably a (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) LDView and MLCad shows a way for solving this issue. In the MLCad.ini you can define alternate search path for parts, so you do not have to mix official and unofficial parts. Also LDView has the possibility to search in different directories. (...) (17 years ago, 24-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub 4 Status
 
(...) I think those and other development tools are available as an optional install from your system DVD, if they're not already present on the machine. Jim (17 years ago, 23-Mar-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
