  Viewing DAT files from my browser?
 
Is there a way to view LDraw DAT files that are posted to models directly from a web browser? To state it more clearly... I am using IE 5 to read LUGNET in it's web based format. Is there a way I can "read" the DAT files people post on the fly, or (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad)
 
  B-Wing Fighter, Combat Mode (MOC)  [DAT]
 
Well, with the release of the Official A-Wing and B-Wing models, I thought I'd repost the MOCs I made earlier this year. This is my B-Wing (Combat Mode), which is almost perfectly to scale. Enjoy!

  Re: Dat format question - Quad line order
 
(...) You are correct that the co-ordinates _should_ define a simple loop without crossing. The rendering algorithm in the original LDraw program was not sensitive to this, so errors crept into the parts files. There was a move some time back to (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  new/unofficial part - 4x6 flag  [DAT]
 
Hi! I dunno if anyone's already done this part or not, but it wasn't in the latest, greatest version of LDraw when I downloaded LDraw, so I thought I'd try my hand at it.
