Better than ever!
I would have not believed LDView could have better graphics.
But curve smoothing is such a tremendous quality improvement.
Other remarks:
* Documentation should warn about memory requirements of "Conditionnal
Lines". LDView can be more than 25 times slower when I swith 5-lines on,
because of disk-overswapping. No other option has such an impact on performance.
* I still experience color bugs, especially with transparent parts. Official
part 30187c02.dat is representative of this color bug. Parts in file
containing errors can also be color-modified.
My config: W98se, 64Mo, celeron500 + i810 chipset
My OpenGL driver: Intel 810 version 1.1.2
I am confident, you are on the way of a displayer that is much better and
yet as stable as version 1.0
Thanks,
Damien
