  Soccer Ball - plain DAT code  [DAT]
 
Here's the soccer ball, with the GDL converted to standard LDraw. No LDL or MPD. I also just realized that there are no conditional lines between the facets. Oops. They shouldn't be too hard to add, but I'd start with the LDL code I posted a little (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: Soccer Ball - working code
 
And because of the LDLite code, LUGNET doesn't recognize that the post contains an LDraw file. C'est la vie. I was planning on posting plain DAT code as well. That'll be up next. Steve (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Soccer Ball - working code
 
Here is an MPD with LDLite code for a soccer ball. The LDLite language extensions allowed me to generate and use the exact values for the vertices more easily than raw LDraw code. Because of the language, I *think* only LDLite (and probably LDGLite) (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
 
  Re: New Part: 3001_d.dat - Duplo Brick 2 x 4
 
(...) I like the flattened sides simply because they are a visible feature of the bricks. But then I would also have tackled the little depression on the top center, too.

  Re: New Part: 3001_d.dat - Duplo Brick 2 x 4
 
(...) After looking a little closer at other parts (and some contact with Tore), I have become convinced that the interior details are probably more than we need to model anyway.

  Re: Torus primitive discussion. was( Updated Primitive - 1-8t0102 1/8 torus)
 
(...) Because I was thinking that each section covered 90-degrees of the major circle. Otherwise, they'd be named 16t*0301.dat, since each is 1/16 of a complete torus.
