 | | Darth Vader Helmet on Parts tracker
|
| Hi, I just wanted to let you all know that I posted the Darth Vader minifig helmet to the parts tracker last night. (URL) you download it, be sure to get all the unofficial primitives. Paul (23 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

|
| Dear fellow LEGO fans, I am sending this message to the groups I regularly read and post to, because since today my E-mail address that I used to post with no longer exists! It was jmolen@globalxs.nl... :-( My new adres will be jmolen@zonnet.nl and (...)

| | | | | Re: Help needed with cond. lines
|
| (...) Looking at how the geometry is layed out, I think you've hit a limitation in LDView's smoothing algorithm. In other words, the lack of smoothness is caused by a problem with LDView, not by a problem with your layout. The basic cause of the (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| In lugnet.cad.dat.parts, Travis Cobbs writes: hi travis, (...) thx for the tip. I remodeled the whole thing and were able to fix it, well almost... looking closely in LDView you can see a rough area where the two 2-4ndis meet the rest of the (...)

| | | | | Re: Help needed with cond. lines
|
| (...) I'm not sure the part authors will be able to help you, but my knowledge of LDView probably will. After looking at it in LDView (without actually trying to read your DAT code), I believe the problem is that you have a T-intersection, and the (...)

| | | | | Help needed with cond. lines [DAT]
|
| Could some of the senior-authors please have a look at the cond. lines? I'm in trouble with the section around the visor holes. I tried to add some cond. lines but LDView still doesn't show it with a smooth surface. I have no idea what's wrong. Many (...) (23 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| (...) I checked some geometry websites, and the consensus is that these are tori. Just not the common type. (...) Inverse-ratio torus is a better name, but is fairly lengthy. An inverted torus, I think, is still a torus, just with the surfaces (...) (23 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| (...) When Steve and I were working on the format for the torii, I believe we said we would deal with this issue when it arose. Now it has. (...) The spreadsheet I made to create p/16 and p/48 torii also included support for this occurance. (...) (23 years ago, 23-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

| (...) I'm not terribly surprised. This is a great solution, as then, if for some reason in the future, inverse ratio tori are needed, they can use the same convention, just a different starting letter and inverting the ratio as appropriate in the (...)
