  Re: LSynth electric cable cross section oriention problem
 
(...) Me too! Kevin (18 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LSynth electric cable cross section oriention problem
 
(...) Hi Kevin, Another possibility to investigate is to change the up vector in inverse proportion to the bezier curve change. That would mean it would twist less where there's a sharper bend, and would possibly end up looking more authentic. But (...) (18 years ago, 26-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LSynth electric cable cross section oriention problem
 
(...) Leo, In case you didn't get this far, I solved the above problem and can now control twist all through a cable segment from start point to end point. I calculate the up vector for the start of segment, and the up vector for the end of segment. (...) (18 years ago, 26-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDAO problem
 
i guess this would be the correct spot for the message. i have a install problem with LDAO. i install it, and when i stat it i get error 76 , path not found. (18 years ago, 26-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LSynth electric cable cross section oriention problem
 
I've got up/side/front vector stuff working now, so that I can control the orientation of cross sections of electrical cables at the start of a segment defined by two constraints. My issue now is that I don't know how to force the twist so that the (...) (18 years ago, 24-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: bend thingie creator.
 
(...) Let me check my archive of LDraw related programs and if I have it I'll email it to you. -Orion (18 years ago, 24-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LSynth electric cable cross section oriention problem
 
Hi, I've got a reworked version of LSynth with a major problem... I cannot figure out how to control the twist of the cross section. I use bezier curve to created the nicely curved set of points, and compress it by tossing out points until the angle (...) (18 years ago, 24-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: bend thingie creator.
 
(...) Koen, I tried to email you using your address, and I tried to download your bendie thingy creator. It is gone. Does anyone have a copy of this so I can play with it? Kevin (18 years ago, 24-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: *** Correction: LDView Version 3.1 Released ***
 
(FUT lugnet.cad.dev) (...) Actually, all the string handling code for the path stuff is fine (and cross-platform to work in both Windows and *nix). After doing some investigation, I discovered that the problem is that when we do a stat on the (...) (18 years ago, 22-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDraw coordinate system driving me crazy
 
A sincere thanks to all of you. Your comments made me go back over (again) my export code, and I found an error. Now it works as expected. I was getting funny rotations because I mis-ordered the elements of the transformation matrix, duh. Seems (...) (18 years ago, 20-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
 
  Re: LDraw coordinate system driving me crazy
 
(...) I agree with Tim. It looks fine to me. If there were any mirroring going on, then either the orange and red would be swapped on the unwrapped box, or the green and grey would be swapped. The picture in LDView has a rotated camera angle (...) (18 years ago, 19-Nov-06, to lugnet.cad.dev, FTX)
