I think I know the problem.  Ldglite calculates the extents of the image

have to patch it up to also use quads and triangles in that calculation.

Ah.  I think that makes sense - the missing files I'm sure of are all
subpart files, that are unlikely to have edges.

By the way, what sort of weirdness is going on with the LDRAWDIR path
that you need to specifically include the parts directory as part of
the path to the dat file?

Heh.  *That* library isn't actually the LDRAWDIR.  Well, it is and it isn't.
In order to render correctly, I've constructed a library of symlinks that
combines references to the official and unofficial part libraries.  So the
LDRAWDIR envvar points to the symlib, not to the unofficial parts library.

If that doesn't make sense, I can explain further.

(...) Hmmm, it seems to skip the "Write PNG" message if I pass it an empty DAT file. Checking the source, it appears to silently fail if it doesn't find any pixels to save a picture of. It'll report "bmpsize = something" before writing (or skipping) (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad)
