It should be able to combine the subfiles with the main dat file and tally up the total parts list without having to change the file from an MPD to a DAT. (...) Maybe he has to be like (...)

(...) Thanks for the nice comment Bram! Anyway, regarding the piece positioning, you are very absolutely correct. I really should download the newest version of MLCAD, but I'm too lazy.;>) Thanks again! Mladen Pejic (25 years ago, 29-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

(...) Looks nice! (...) -3.33067e-015 is *very* close to zero, and should actually be replaced with 0. I think the most recent version of MLCAD solved this problem? --Bram (25 years ago, 29-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.dat.models)

But you can't add new view-definitions, like "upside down" or "right-front-below" (aka, pit-crew view angle). LDAO allows these types of (...) (25 years ago, 29-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I'd say, brickwise, Tyco's biggest problem is they didn't round off the edges of the bricks. You thought it hurt to step on *LEGO* bricks? Those Tyco pieces were doubly painful. Also, the lack of rounding made it hard to pry the pieces apart. (...) (25 years ago, 29-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Has anyone done work on LDraw parts for Timmy's torso and/or head? I've been working on the torso pattern, but if someone already has the project underway, I'd be interested to learn of its progress. Thanks, Dave! (25 years ago, 29-Nov-99, to lugnet.cad)
