  Re: high-res sphere primitive with type 5 lines  [DAT]
 
Well, here it is again, with 4 decimal places accuracy for the whole file this time, instead of 4 decimal places for the type 5 lines and 3 decimal places for the triangles. --Travis Cobbs (tcobbs@REMOVE.halibut.com) 0 Hi-Res Sphere 0.125 0 Name: (...)

  Re: high-res sphere primitive with type 5 lines
 
(...) Excellent- thanks! Now I can submit my Primo parts to the tracker. Though the "same layout" warning makes me wonder if I'll have to rework them... -- Tony Hafner www.hafhead.com (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) Is that true for all three edges of the sphere? [snip] (...) [snip] I thought you were generating to 4 decimals? You know, like this: (...) [snip] Steve (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: duplicate primitives?
 
(...) I'm not *against* such a change, but I'm not a big supporter of it. Maybe if we could revive the old primitives committee (you all know who you are), or if there was another admin for the PT who could oversee this project, that would be a good (...)

  Re: ring 3 to 5
 
(...) I wasn't thinking of either, really. I was wondering if maybe the part should be modeled without any primitives at all. I suppose the practical result of that would be primitive-inlining. (...) In the case of the lower arm (forearm), I don't (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: high-res sphere primitive with type 5 lines  [DAT]
 
Well, based on comments in some other threads, I came to the conclusion that the type 5 lines I had around the edge of my original primitive where wrong. I have now updated them accordingly. This version is the same as the last other than that. The (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: why re-submit x-4disc files?...
 
(...) OK, then someone needs to document that in the files... (For ex.: "0 2002-05-05 MK converted triangles to quads to save space") Thanks, Franklin (22 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: high-res sphere primitive with type 5 lines
 
(...) Looks good to me. Just yesterday I added type 5 lines to your low res version and submitted them to the tracker. The diference in my version though that I moved the type 5 lines from the very edges of the sphere into the higher 2-8, 4-8, and (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  Re: why re-submit x-4disc files?...
 
(...) I combined the triangles into quads so they save a bit of disk space. It may not seam like much of a savings, but I try to cut out every last bit I possibly can. (22 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
 
  high-res sphere primitive with type 5 lines  [DAT]
 
Well, I finally got around to adding the line type 5 lines to my high-res sphere primitive. (This thanks to the fact that Don Heyse incorporated code from LDGLite to draw them in LDView; thanks Don!) My sphere primitive isn't the same layout as the (...) (22 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
