  LSculpt update - Mac version available!
 
Jim Devona has kindly compiled LSculpt for Macintosh. It's a universal build, so it should work on Intel and PPC computers. I've also added a little more text to the HELP file and fixed a couple bugs. LSculpt is available at (URL) Here are a couple (...)

  Re: Previous step color scaling
 
(...) Or if you're really, really scared of cygwin, this StepFade.bat file might work on XP. But I didn't test it all that much, and I don't claim to know all the nuances of the old DOS fc and find commands. The unix diff and grep commands are so (...)

  Re: Previous step color scaling
 
(...) Try the following (assumes Win2K/WinXP): Download cygwin from (URL) (click the "Install or update now!" link) Run cygwin's setup.exe file that you downloaded Follow the instructions for a default install and choose a working mirror. (I used (...) (19 years ago, 31-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Previous step color scaling
 
(...) LOL! I know (ofcourse). I wrote it wrong. I ment: how can one use the script Travis provided to insert the PreL3P codes into the LDraw files :-) (...) No it won't be fun at all :-( (...) I am still a bit confused how to work things out with (...) (19 years ago, 30-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Previous step color scaling
 
(...) Well, that's what LPub does, right? Anyway, PreL3P should work at a Windows DOS prompt (or whatever you call it), so the PreL3P-LDView technique we talk about here should be possible in Windows. The shell script does require unix or cygwin, (...) (19 years ago, 30-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Previous step color scaling
 
And how can one create building instructions without access to a *nix machine (what is that anyway :-) and no cygwin components on a Windows PC? I am desperately looking for a way to create smooth building step images top view for a very large (...) (19 years ago, 30-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) No problem. Thanks for the clarification - I thought it was entirely possible that something else might have been intercepting the -help argument. Jim (19 years ago, 25-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) Ah, thanks for bringing that to my attention. I was not aware of the difference. My addition currently understands multiple arguments with this syntax: prel3p 1.ldr 2.ldr 3.ldr Each ldr file is processed in place and the originals are copied (...)

  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) Sorry, my wrong! I thought I used the latest version, but I didn't. All variants of the -help switch work on 1.3.1. Time to delete all outdated versions from my HD. :) /Tore (19 years ago, 25-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) Just curious, how'd you end up implementing that? If I recall, unix shells will expand a *.ldr arg for you, but on Windows it's left to the program to do it. Don (19 years ago, 25-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) I've added the ability to process multiple files in one run, but before I release that I'd like to check whether there's any more information regarding this -help issue. Can you confirm whether either of the alternate help options (-h or (...) (19 years ago, 25-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Unseen inner structures
 
(...) Thanks Ross and all who answered on LDraw.org. Seems the consensus is to model at least a minimum of inner stuff. For the moment, I'll resubmit with a "needs work", as I prefer to work on the delivery of the others NXT parts to the Tracker. (...) (19 years ago, 24-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Unseen inner structures
 
(...) modeled it. I decided modeling the actual gears inside was not appropriate for this part, mainly because I didn't want to prise my only one apart, but also because I couldn't think of anyone ever wanting to see them in a model. Having decided (...) (19 years ago, 23-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) For what it's worth, that is the error message that version 1.1 would report given the -help argument. Otherwise, you appear to be using it correctly. Do either of the synonyms "-h" or "--help" work? I can't seem to reproduce the problem. (...) (19 years ago, 22-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: PreL3P 1.3 -help :)
 
(...) ==== 8< - - - (...) Too busy with my latest project, I haven't tried PreL3P that much yet. I may have misunderstood the -help option, because I tried the v1.3.1 both from DOS Prompt Box as well as from a batch file, with same result: ---...--- (...) (19 years ago, 22-Oct-07, to lugnet.cad)
