(...) The biggest reason is that on Vista (and I would assume subsequent Windows versions) write access is restricted to the Windows directory (among others) is restricted. Apparently Microsoft has been telling developers to use the APPDATA path for (...) (17 years ago, 22-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: ldraw.ini location
 
(...) On my System (xp) ldraw.ini is in the windows folder, like all the other ini files. Why do you want to move it from there to somewhere else? I see that it make sense to move it to split user data from system data, but how long to we need then (...) (17 years ago, 22-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad)
 
  ldraw.ini location
 
I think we, as developers, should decide a standard location for the ldraw.ini on each platform. It's simply too confusing to have many different locations. I propose: Windows: %APPDATA%\ldraw\ldraw.ini (this is where Microsoft tells you to put such (...) (17 years ago, 22-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad)

  New Tool GapFinder
 
I just have finished a new tool called GapFinder. ((URL) is designed to find gaps between triangle and/or quad. The results might be useful to correct a file.

  Re: LDraw colour for metallic silver
 
(...) For me it looks completely like Chrome that is already defined in the LDConfig.ldr. If I get some picture where I can see differences I will change my opinion. cu mikeheide (17 years ago, 14-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad)

  New Version of DATHeader will come soon.
 
New in Version 1.2.x At loading of a part DATHeader counts now the colors and listed the result on the right side, so you can see which colors are used in your file. If you know it should have only color 16 and 24 you can mark the file as Uncolored (...) (17 years ago, 12-Feb-09, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.cad)

If it's of any help, here's an image of the medium wheels I scanned in. If I have the time, I'll generate a LDRAW file, but it won't be standards-compliant. In the meantime, perhaps it will be of use to those more verse in Ldraw than I. (URL) (17 years ago, 11-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad)

  How to change the winding of a file  [DAT]
 
If you have the problem that you have made for example a primitive with the wrong winding then you think you have to write it again. You do not need! With Inliner ((URL) you can do it easily. Lets say your partfile is 'something.dat' and is BFC CW. (...) (17 years ago, 10-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad)
