(...) Why don't you use #000000 as the edge color? I think that looks OK even against the default black color (LDraw color 0), while the edge lines around the black in you image above are difficult to see. --Travis (16 years ago, 19-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) You will need to over-write your existing MLCAD.cfg that should be located in the LDraw directory. Nothing else needs to be done. Just open MLCAD and open your models to see them in the new colors. Scott (16 years ago, 19-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)

Great work. However (please forgive me)... Where do I put these files (I assume the MLCad program folder?), how do I use them amd how can I test if the colors are right? I have never worked with custom colors before. (16 years ago, 19-Nov-08, to lugnet.cad)
