(...) BTW, you did see Lars reply to my question about L3P and the conic sections, right? So after the next update to L3P, you'll put the fix for the 1x1 cone into the following parts update, right? Steve (25 years ago, 2-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

(...) Affirmative to both. Though, to be safe, you might want to prod my memory when the time comes. Question, do the other cones have that problem? -- Terry K -- (25 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

(...) Okey-doke. (...) The problem is with the primitive being used. I used the 1-4con3.dat file, the translation of which is improperly written by L3P. Presumably, any part using this primitive will render incorrectly. Currently, there's only one: (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

(...) Good answer, but not the one I was looking for. :-) What I meant to ask is: do the current cones need to get the same/similar fix as the 1x1 cone? -- Terry K -- (25 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

(...) Oh, definitely. Haven't looked at many cone parts in L3P, have you? The 3x3x2 cone especially needs extensive work. Steve (25 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)

(...) I don't know if the other cones will be as easy to fix as the 1x1x1. But I think they will (the main complication would be if the conic surface was interrupted by some feature). (...) Too bad; that one was aimed at you. ;) Steve (25 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build)
