Anyway, I had one question for ya Tim: What version of the parts library is
on the disk? I guess I assumed it has the same parts as the December 2002
release, as that is the most recent. I also assumed that the software
versions are pretty close to the verisons given in the Jan 2003 LDRAW tools
installer. Anyway, if you can confirm that, it woyuld be great. Thanks!

Ahui also handled the installer for the books CD. So, he would be the best
person to ask. The final installer was compiled around May, so we might have
squeaked another update in there (Im not looking at the site right now to
see when the latest update was released, though)

Here is a rundown of what versions are on the CD-ROM in the Virtual LEGO book.
LDraw Parts 2003-03 (latest version as of right now 12 Oct 03)
MLCad 3.00
LDView (note 1)
L3P latest version
L3PAO 1.3.8

MegaPov 0.7 (note 2)
LGEO Parts 15.0

LDGLite latest version
LDraw Add-On latest version
Note 1: Not sure what version but for SURE NOT the latest version that came
out this month.
Note 2: This is NOT the latest version but the version used in the book.
For those of you who are new to LDraw and are using the book to get started with
rendering DO NOT UPGRADE THESE APPLICATIONS unitl after you have use the
versions on the CD-ROM to learn the software.
Once you are comfortable with the software, then upgrade. In some case, you
might NOT want the upgraded version becuase the difference.
But I, Ahui Herrera, as an Author of the book and the LDraw Help Desk POC
recommend that you use the version in the CD-ROM first.

| Hi Alfred - (...) Great! I hope the book helps you learn the POV techniques. Ahui penned those chapters, and I edited them. I learned most of what I know about POV from going through his work! He did a great job with it. (...) Ahui also handled the (...) (21 years ago, 12-Oct-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.books, lugnet.publish, FTX)
