(...) Without adding options, it would be best to have all transformations operations centered on main file origin. An extension would be to allow transformations centered on on user defined point (cf. MLCad). And to go further, transformations (...) (16 years ago, 19-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDconfig.ldr - missing colors
 
(...) I have been waiting to hear from someone on this. The issues left to be worked (as I remember them anyway): 1) compile all of the colors into one file (LDConfig.ldr) 2) work out the LDRAW color IDs as best as possible and get the steer co to (...)

  Re: LDraw.org 2008-01 Parts Library Update now available
 
(...) The suggestion that fixes to already released official parts should not be in the unofficial library download ((URL)) seems reasonable at first reading, but we need to consider the wider implications. For example, consider the following (...) (16 years ago, 18-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) And they may come back on Tracker as a new version when an author improves an already certified part. So often you have to deal with two version of the same part, one official and one (improved) on PT. Philo (16 years ago, 18-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw.org 2008-01 Parts Library Update now available
 
(...) That has always happened in the past, and will presumably happen with the next update. The parts tracker "unofficial parts library" only contains new (unreleased) files and that have been modified since the last update. This update was (...) (16 years ago, 18-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw.org 2008-01 Parts Library Update now available
 
Hi, I'm the author of SR 3D Builder and I was thinking that the update were including part corrections and fixes at least for the official parts, but I understand that is a huge work. Since my appl loads the whole part library to build images for (...) (16 years ago, 18-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Request for more stringent naming of (Complete|Shortcut) parts

  Re: Request for more stringent naming of (Complete|Shortcut) parts
 
(...) Sorry. I misinterpreted your initial post. I just went back and reread it, and see that it doesn't actually say that the user used 4107488.dat, but it does seems to imply this (at least to me). (...) I had forgotten about that new format for (...) (16 years ago, 18-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)

(...) The point is that the model does *not* use 4107488.dat because that is not the right shape for the model...... If everyone only ever used 4107488.dat, I would not have brought it up. (...) Chris has told me how to recognize the complete parts. (...) (16 years ago, 18-Sep-08, to lugnet.cad)
