  LSC: Call for Votes
 
Re-printed from (URL) LDraw Community Members - The time has come to select the members of the first (URL) LDraw.org Standards Committee (LSC)> [1]. This ballot and these voting procedures have been compiled on behalf of the ad-hoc organizing (...) (21 years ago, 20-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.announce, FTX) !! 
 
  Re: Proposed solution *Test Here*  [DAT]
 
(...) Yes. No. ;-) There's still a problem with mirrored sub-assemblies. Suppose you have an aeroplane, Plane.ldr: 1 2 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 -1 0 0 2445.DAT 1 16 0 -8 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 Wing.ldr 1 16 0 -8 0 -1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 Wing.ldr Wing.ldr: 1 4 -80 (...)

  Re: Vertices not coplanar?
 
(...) Right, it is typically an error if the four points of a quad do not lie in a plane. Too bad that the LDraw format has a built-in possiblity of creating degenerate quads. POV e.g. uses 2D points to describe a polygon. See also "Method for (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: [Parts Tracker] New Feature: MySubmits Page
 
(...) You're welcome. :) (...) The way the page works is the history text (the reviews & submits appearing at the bottom of the detail) is searched for 'Submitted by: pneaster' and any matching files are returned in the list. If you were the (...) (21 years ago, 18-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Vertices not coplanar?
 
(...) What Orion said. (...) Sometimes, it just means the vertices are incorrect. If the vertices are correct, then you should break the quads into two triangles, and put a soft edge (linetype 5) along the common edge. But often, it's worth looking (...)

  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
 
(...) Yes. I've verified this. -Orion (21 years ago, 17-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  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)
 
  Re: 1st LSC: Call for Nominations

  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

  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)
