| | QTVR of a model
|
|
While beta testing LDraw Viewer, I created this model. It took only a few hours (spread out over a few days). (I created the model for real years ago.) I am also learning how to use L3P, so I created an QTVR of the model rendered with POV-Ray. (URL) (...) (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

I think I have gotten mac.ldraw.org completely updated. Anyone who would like to double check stuff please do. I changed the name to "LDraw Macintosh Community" (with a new graphic too) and got rid of "members" and "join" pages. James (22 years ago, 22-Dec-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

Well, I am useless when it comes to prgraming, but I can pretend that I am performing a valuable service by reporting my findings for beta software.
