| | | (...) Datsville is IMHO a HUGE model, with its 2Mb+ and several sub-models used multiple times. MLCAD is out of the question, but L3Lab is acceptable: 6.3-13 seconds, depending on zoom factor and other preferences. No problem with L3P, but I haven't (...)

| | | | | (...) Dumb question... but where is Datsville hosted right now, and who maintains it? There should be a link on LDraw.org, but there isn't to my knowledge. I'll fix that on a long overdue wave of updates sometime in the relative near future. Thanks! (...) (22 years ago, 20-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | (...) Why is it that MLCad isn't appropriate for large models? Does it take a long time, or will MLCad actually crash? And what is the size limitation? I'm working on a fairly large model - well, it has a large number of parts, though its overall (...) (22 years ago, 20-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | | You can get MLCAD's response time on refreshes to be much snappier by reducing the size of the 3D window. The isometrics don't take much processing power, even with large numbers of pieces. Also try running it under Win2k with lots'a ram. Win 98 (...) (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad)

I'd love to upgrade the HD too...20 GB just ain't enough for my MP3 usage ;-) I've (...) (22 years ago, 21-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
