It sure will be nice when there are POV-Ray primitives for the cone pieces,
eh?

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?

Affirmative to both.  Though, to be safe, you might want to prod my memory
when
the time comes.

Okey-doke.

Question, do the other cones have that problem?

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:
6267.dat, the windscreen 2 x 12 x 4.

I don't know if any other primitives have this problem.  Maybe 1-4con4.dat (it
was added at the same time as 1-4con3.dat).

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?

(...) 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)
