--snip-- (...) I'm not new to matrices and Travis' example is still a little unrigorous which is why I propose the mathematically sound form above. Note the amount of discussion already here because of what people consider 'standard' or 'given' (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

Some quick answers... (...) Excellent. Thanks. (...) You should include the unofficial parts as submodels. (...) So long as you invent it then it's yours to submit. We don't want someone to post an MPD of the alternative model shown on the back of (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad)

So from a purely technical standpoint, it's unlikely that problems will be encountered with unofficial part (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad)

The new minimum-entries rule has inspired me to enter the LDraw.org Model of the Month contest. I have a few questions: 1. Should entries that use unofficial parts (real LEGO parts that are not yet LDraw certified) include those parts in the MPD (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad)

(...) If I were new to 3D graphics (and I am ) I would be confused by this, I would have to ask someone else how to interpret the spec. I think Travis' proposal to show the two different matrices that can be built from the line of values is more (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I think a full worked through example would do the specs a lot of good. If I understand right the line 1 c x y z a b c d e f g h i part.dat transforms any point by the operation (u, v, w)->(x+a*u+b*v+c*w, y+d*u+e*v+f*w, z+g*u+h*v+i*w) With it (...) (19 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) That's the first I've heard of new performance problems in 3.2. I don't think I got any reports of that for the 3.2 Beta, and the 3.2 final is only bug fixes. It certainly runs fine on the computers I've tested it on. Can you copy the first (...) (19 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Thank you Travis. Is it just me or is this version unusable slow? Drawing anything takes a good few seconds of 100% CPU whereas the same model and settings were almost instant in previous versions. I can go back to some previous build if it (...) (19 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I thought I'd add a clarification to the above. A quick look at LDView's (URL) Change History> file will show that I only added support for spaces in submodel filenames in version 3.0. Furthermore, I listed it as an addition, not a bug fix, (...) (19 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

(...) That's true. However, unless I'm badly mistaken, in addition to the xyz1 being at the end, you also need the other parameters to be in the proper direction in order to get the results that the LDraw library wants. The following two matrices (...) (19 years ago, 22-Aug-07, to lugnet.cad)
