      (...) It struck me as a serious question. It may not matter so much in LDraw itself, which has relatively low resolution colors, but it does matter for POVRay where color rendering does matter. If someone does a model that deliberately used both the (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)

      (...) I agree, it is a valid opinion. my question is: why nobody stood up asking to rename all the duplo parts at the PT into "explore"? do we really have to copy slavishly all the marketing stunts? w. (21 years ago, 19-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)

     (...) I am serious about the question! Why? Well when I first posted the question I was asking becuase I (Ahui Herrera, a LEGO fan) wanted to know how to render the new colors. However, part of the curcioisty is also to get prepared for when someone (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

   (...) In general, I'd recommend people use the old color codes for the new 'flavors'. In cases where people need to differentiate between the old colors and the new colors, they should investigate MLCAD's and LDLite's custom color options. For (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad)
