  Re: Vertices not coplanar?
 
(...) When a renderer goes to render a quad in 3D, it will almost always (perhaps always) first split the quad into two triangles. As long as the quad forms a planar surface, this will result in fairly equivalent results no matter which of the two (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Vertices not coplanar?
 
(...) If I remember my 3D theory correctly, these quads can mess up the normals associated with them. Also, noncoplaner quads cause small gaps in the part since they are, in essence, bent rectangles. Usually these gaps are too small to see, even (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Vertices not coplanar?
 
What troubles do these warnings cause? I see no problems with the renderings, no matter what renderer I use. How do I correct them? By splitting all the quads into two triangles each I guess? If so, why not make a tool that splits them up? /Tore (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: [Parts Tracker] New Feature: MySubmits Page
 
(...) <SNIP> (...) Odd. Parts that I originally submitted and someone resubmitted later show up on my list. Also, parts where I was not the originator, but resubmitted, and then somebody else resubmitted later, also show up (multiple editors). (...) (...)

  Re: [Parts Tracker] New Feature: MySubmits Page
 
(...) Awesome! Cool! Great! Thank You! :) I see some receint submissions I have made where I have made a few corrections on parts that were not "my" parts. Will the original submitter still have that part show up on thier list? Ok, I opened a new (...) (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  [Parts Tracker] New Feature: MySubmits Page
 
Orion asked for a page showing all the files he had submitted to the PT. I realized this would be a relatively simple change to the existing myreviews page, so I put a page together. It's at: (URL) haven't thouroughly checked the output of this (...) (21 years ago, 16-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: LSC nomination window closes July 15
 
(...) FYI, midnight GMT is at 8pm Eastern (US) time/7pm Central (US) time. To be included on the ballot for the first LSC, please accept your nomination by that time. Thanks! -Tim (21 years ago, 15-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  LSC nomination window closes July 15
 
Just a reminder ... the nomination window closes end of tomorrow. I think it's fair to base this off of LUGNET server time, which is GMT. -Tim (21 years ago, 14-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: LSC Nominees So Far
 
(...) Thanks, Kevin! I'll re-post it when the nomination window closes end of tomorrow. -Tim (21 years ago, 14-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: Proposed solution *Test Here*
 
(...) Thanks for the info. After further consideration, I realized that there is one other thing that will prevent the -lgeo option from working properly, even for models that don't have mirrored sub-assemblies. Any parts in the part library that (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: List of part numbers with descriptions???
 
(...) You can use the parts.lst file in your LDRAW directory. All it is is a master list of all the part numbers/names in the PARTS folder sorted by number or description depending on how you ran MKLIST. --Orion (21 years ago, 11-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  List of part numbers with descriptions???
 
I'm still working on my back-burner program to make labels for storage drawers. Does anyone know of a (simple, Windows-based) way to get a list of the parts descriptions? Getting a list of all LDRAW part numbers is no sweat (dir *.dat /b ><filename> (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Proposed solution *Test Here*
 
(...) Two reasons I can think of: 1) Inventories: If you build a submodel using a Left Wing, and then mirror it, the inventory is going to show 2 left wings, when in reality there is 1 left wing and 1 right wing. 2) Instructions: Official LEGO (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Proposed solution *Test Here*
 
(...) That's good to hear. (...) Yeah. I was aware of that. The good news is that it should only be a problem in LGEO if you have mirrored sub-assemblies. Looking at the models I have downloaded over time, I discovered that most people don't do this (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
