|
|
I just released another update on LDConfig Manager. Now I feel that the LDConfig Manager is nearly finished and can be used to generate exact the same LDconfig as it has been done by hand so far.

(...) That is why we should stick to the 8.3 length parts file name convention :-) I'm able to run ldraw fully native, on a still operational PC with MS-DOS operating system. (14 years ago, 2-Feb-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Very interesting... one question before I commit myself to learn Sketchup, is it possible to import LDraw primitives, and build more complex shapes on them? Lack of proper integration of primitives is always what plagues advanced CAD tools (...) (14 years ago, 2-Feb-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I did not know that, I always thought the cmdline is more aimed at the model level, cause they are basically ldraw.exe parameters? But looking at an old ldraw release, the -c param isn't mentioned so additional documentation on the !CMDLINE (...) (14 years ago, 1-Feb-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I agree usage of color 16 for the box should be left to the part author. But the thing I'm thinking of is in daily use this will cause the sticker to be used in a non 'real' way. I mean you would like to have the option but by default it (...) (14 years ago, 31-Jan-11, to lugnet.cad)
