  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) Hi all, this isn't an attempt to keep you staying here. I'd just like to confirm that it's still possible to get the $10-membership which allows you to keep you signed in (no auth emails). I keep track of new members and forgotten passwords, (...) (14 years ago, 3-Nov-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)  
 
  Re: 6023.dat
 
(...) No worries. The good thing is that it has gotten me started on LDraw again, after some months in a state of Dark Ages Light. (...) Yes, so I noticed.

(...) Sorry, Tore :( It seems that Lugnet posts were stalled during several hours, preventing Nils message to reach you in time (hence also my double post...) Philo (14 years ago, 3-Nov-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: 6023.dat
 
(...) Oh. That's exactly what I've spent several of the latest hours doing. Zillions of triangles replaced, and some primitves in use. Same source, but into another file... :( /Tore (14 years ago, 2-Nov-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

  Re: Forum shift

  Re: 6023.dat
 
(...) I'll try to ask Paul Easter. But if you can try to make it, I would be very thankful. I would like to help but I don't have this part and my ldraw skills are (I think) not good enough to model a part from scratch in a reasonable amount of (...)

  Re: Forum shift

  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) The authentication emails have NOTHING whatsoever to do with NNTP. A properly configured NNTP server uses usernames and passwords for authentication.

  Re: 6023.dat

  6023.dat
 
Hi there, I can't find the 6023 part anywhere (Minifig Jet-Pack). It a quite old part so I hope someone has already modeled it ! But where ? Does someone have an idea about it ? Thanks (14 years ago, 1-Nov-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) No Allen, you can't become a member anymore. You can do the posting setup and "join" but unless you're a member you still have to put up with the authentication emails. -Orion (14 years ago, 1-Nov-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) Wow, I didn't know you could still actually join Lugnet. Somehow I'd gotten the impression that process had fallen into neglect before I started posting here. So I've been putting up with those authentication e-mails needlessly all these (...) (14 years ago, 29-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)

  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) Hi Anders, We've established this was just a difference in terminology - Scott was calling the "posting setup" a membership as well, which it sort-of is, but us anal geeks want everyone to use the terminology we're used to (that was used by (...)

  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) Except that, for most, the web interface is the way they use LUGNET. In addition, I use a separate email client and newsreader so I'm sure there are others like me. The bottom line is that I feel that the authentication emails are an undo (...) (14 years ago, 31-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) You remember totally wrong. Anyone, member of lugnet or not, can/could sign up for posting. The only difference is that 'real' (paying) members don't have to reply to the confirmation email for each post they do. Which isn't a hassle at all, (...)

  Re: LDD worse than before?

  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) As I said, I agree. And you've re-highlighted something that is not obvious, and not easy to figure out for newbies - you do not have to be a member[1] to post, something which seems to be the norm on the vast majority of modern forum sites.

  LDD worse than before?
 
Not sure if it is just me, but has the new version of LDD gone a little crazy? I have been trying to place a 4x4 plate on top of a square made with two 1x2 and two 1x4 bricks, and it will not line up whatsoever. It has the plate half a stud off each (...)

  Re: Forum shift

  Re: Forum shift

  Unable to import LDraw file in LDD 4
 
Hi all, After updating LDD to version 4, the import of an LDraw file does not work anymore :-( Anyone know how to fix this? It seems the ldraw.xml file is missing. The library in this new version is now one big .lif file, where as the previous (...) (14 years ago, 29-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) Do you really think that adding moderation to a dead forum will revive it? That's the equivalent of trying to bring someone back from a coma by reading them the ten commandments. I'd prefer to stay in the coma than return to that. Tim (14 years ago, 29-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) There are two types of memberships here...which is also very confusing! As I remember it was fairly easy to become a regular member, but that did not allow posting. A membership that allowed you to post was a different and more difficult (...) (14 years ago, 29-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) The gigantic advantage with Lugnet IMO is that I never have log in here to post, once I registred several yesrs ago. It may have been a pain then, I don't even remember... But of course, if I'm the only one to experience it this way, it (...) (14 years ago, 29-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) As I see it if we keep the discussion here we will be talking to an increasingly smaller pool of old LDraw users and neglecting the newer ones. I'm very much in support of this move. Tim (14 years ago, 29-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) Many people read lugnet regularly but few post. This is why the term "lurknet" was coined several year ago. Improving Lugnet's "ease of use" would increase posting activity here. An active team of site administrators and moderators (to post (...) (14 years ago, 29-Oct-10, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) 14, 39 and 137 have taken the trouble to join in those periods - so clearly people are able to negotiate the sign up procedure (and are motivated to do so).

  Re: Forum shift

  Re: Forum shift
