I just found out what caused my notice. I had several non-bfc'd
primitives overwritten with unofficial bfc'd versions.
Now I have deleted all files from my P-folder and extracted
all primitives from the current complete.zip (inlcuding update 0301).
Now I end op with 15 non-bfc'd primitives:
1-4con1
1-4con2
1-4con3
1-4rin10
1-4ring3
1-4ring4
2-4ring1
2-4ring4
3-8cyls
4-4con1

box4t

How can I make my parts bfc certified if it uses any of these primitives ?
I don't know if anyone has made these parts correct bfc certified, since
the PT is offline for a while.
Are the next 'rules' for making primitives bfc certified correct ?
* rect/disc/ndis/ring: top = frontface
* cyli/cyls/cyls2: outside = frontface
* cone: outside/bottom = frontface
* other: outside = frontface
with frontface i mean the faces that are drawn when back face culling
is activated (or shown in green with L3Lab's MyTest6 applied) when
the primitive is used as follows: 1 color 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 primitive.dat
