  Re: Best way to make parts images?
 
I would use l3p and povray, but since l3p only runs on wintel, you have to do that part on a wintel box. Here's how I would do it: 1. Make a batch file to create a dat file for each part. 2. make a batch file to run l3p on each of those dat files 3. (...) (25 years ago, 27-Nov-99, to lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Clone DATs--any interest?
 
(...) Oh, I know you do, now. But I don't think Todd does (or maybe I'm not reading him right) and I think he's got a fair chance of changing your mind. (25 years ago, 27-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Best way to make parts images?
 
What's the "best"[1] automated or semi-automated way to render a large number of parts images into GIFs? (It's OK if there are multiple steps or if a final pass has to convert the results from PNG or BMP to GIF.) What I would like to do for the (...)

(...) What's wrong with the current version? What problems (besides downtime) have been experienced? (...) Good question.

  Re: Clone DATs--any interest?
 
(...) I see what you're saying, but I think you're misunderstanding excluding 'parts' for 'people.' This isn't intended to exclude individuals from the group at Lugnet or from using ldraw.org. Its to keep the Lego brand aspect of LDraw and Lugnet (...) (25 years ago, 27-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Clone DATs--any interest?
 
(...) As of this point, I don't think ldraw.org should *host* clone parts packs, but it wouldn't do any harm to link to them off-site. IMASO the site should continue to promote Lego brand parts and editors which use the LDraw format, and not push (...)

(...) You're making me hungry, Todd. :) Good analogy. -Tim (URL) timcourtne ICQ: 23951114 If you don't believe in Gosh, you'll go to Heck, where you'll face eternal darnation. (25 years ago, 27-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Line in the Sand
 
(...) Er, OK. I'll put that in, but it seems redundant. (...) It means that I stuffed in the pseudo-code without rewriting the syntax-specific sections. :( Steve (25 years ago, 27-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Clone DATs--any interest?
 
(...) Disagree. I remember trying it out Tyco in 1988 and it left a very bitter taste in my mouth -- blyecch -- and at the time I wasn't even a LEGO purist. True, Tyco was the best of the non-LEGO off-brands, but the quality still never quite lived (...)
