(...) Who said that? It's not specifically disallowed in the MPD spec and LDView/MLCad both work fine with s/ and 48/ in the file names. I just tested LDView by changing the LDRAW directory to an empty directory and used a self contained MPD file (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I'd say your best bet for that is likely MLCAD or LDGLite. Not sure if LDGLite likes directories inside MPDs, but there's a reasonably good chance it will work. On a related note, have you tried using LDGLite or LDView as the renderer in LPub? (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I forgot to mention that the above programs will of course only work if he creates a directory somewhere that contains P and PARTS sub-directories, and then sets that as his LDraw directory in MLCad and/or LDGLite. --Travis (18 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Exactly this is my problem. It is hard to explain all this to someone who has never heard of LDRAW. What I imagine is something like a (*.zip?)package containing the model file, the parts and the viewer. You just have to send this package per (...)

(...) Ldglite is still fairly primitive. For Windows, it's basically just an executable and a dll. If you don't give it an ldraw path, it should just look in the directory containing the model, and in the model file itself (if it's an MPD). Is that (...)

(...) Ldglite wouldn't be a good choice (for a packaged solution) -- it needs glut32.dll along with the main ldglite.exe file. But it would be a good choice for a program someone could just grab, unzip, and run. If you pointed them at the download. (...) (18 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
