  Re: Maximum depth of ldraw models?
 
(...) Hmm. I use MPD models a lot, there can be several levels of nesting within a single .mpd file, and I have been known to refer to .mpd files from other .mpd files. I'm not sure how deep my nesting of model files goes, but I'd be a little (...) (18 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Maximum depth of ldraw models?
 
I notice that no maximum depth is given by the standard. How potentially non-compliant would a renderer be if it fails because parts in a model are too deeply nested (a maximum of as little as 16 on some OpenGL implementations). I notice that no (...) (18 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) Well, one that I have gives a warning message that says it can't handle color 24 and substitutes 16 for such lines. But I wasn't sure if that was correct behaviour. Another one that I've played with quietly accepts such lines, but appears to (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) Actually, that grep doesn't return anything. '^[ \t]*1 24' does return hits from three files, though. Every single place in the library that this is used, it's used in a reference to one of the edge primitives. The edge primitives use color 24 (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What does a subpart with color=24 mean?
 
(...) In the case of some kind of direct color, I guess the rendering program is free to do whatever it wants. The simplest action would be to default to black (either LDraw 0, or RGB #000000). I'd be interested to hear what actual rendering (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
