See <http://hugin.risoe.dk/JJ_Memorial/rte200fx.html> about the too-fast
computer problem.
I can't think of any other necessary config changes.

Don't forget to run makelist! Or LDAO's version of it, anyway.
For LDAO, don't forget to run Make Catalog.
To use LDAO's various editing tools with LDLite, check

For all the information published about LDAO, go to
<http://home.att.net/~blisses/ldao/ldaoinfo.html>
For L3P, don't forget the autoexec.bat setting:
set LDRAWDIR=c:\ldraw
I think to *just* get LDLite 1.6 going, you need to:
1. Download and install ldraw.exe, the two parts updates from James
Jessiman, and all the L-CAD updates since then.
2. Download and install LDLite 1.6.
3. Run LDLite, and "Set the path for LDraw parts" from the Options menu.
This should get you set for rendering models from your hard drive, and
from lugnet.cad.dat.
