Congratulations to the winners of the July 2007 Model/Scene/Part Of The Month (MOTM/SOTM/POTM) contests: (URL) MOTM, Prinoth Leitwolf Snowgroomer by Han Crielaard> (URL) SOTM, Valley of the Dark Lords by Philip Heinrich> (URL) POTM - Best Part, (...)

  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) For comparison, I rendered m6459.png (picture posted in earlier post) at 640x480, and the times were as follows (all on an original MacBook 2GHz). Intel (command line-only) compile: Time For Trace: 0 hours 0 minutes 2.0 seconds (2 seconds) (...) (17 years ago, 31-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) Sorry. I used the command line unzip (on my Macbook) to unzip the file, and that toasted the contents. Apparently the resource fork didn't extract properly. Using a different unzipper solved the problem. --Travis (17 years ago, 31-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) The version I posted does not require Classic. It's an old CFM Carbon program (not Mach-O) that can run natively under both OS 8/9 and OS X. It is PowerPC though, so on an Intel Mac, it gets emulated via Rosetta. (But I suspect it runs faster (...) (17 years ago, 28-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Brickshelf Upload Utility
 
I've been working on a Brickshelf upload utility similar to (URL) Flickr Uploadr>. It helps streamline the process of zipping a bunch of files and navigating to or creating the appropriate folder to upload them. These screenshots are of a scruffy (...)

  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) I dusted off my old G3, now a bone stock 10.4 system, and it runs fine (as it does on my MacBook). Jim (17 years ago, 28-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) For reference, here is a script that builds a static univeral libpng library, and then copies it into /usr/local/lib with a u appended to the filename (libpng12u.a): (URL) In order for it to work, png.h has to be modified. In 1.2.18, line 497 (...) (17 years ago, 28-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) Thanks. I eventually figured out how to get it to build. The trick was to build the two versions separately (ppc and i386), and then use lipo to join them. Building for both architectures at once just gave an error that some of the gcc command (...) (17 years ago, 28-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) I see there is universal build of libpng 1.2.17 (URL) here>, but I have not tested it. From the installer notes: "Installs static (.a) and dynamic (.dylib) universal binaries of libpng, as provided by the official libpng reference release: (...)

  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) Actually, I need a Universal binary version of the static libpng library, since I don't want to have to distribute libpng along with the executable. Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure the megapov executable I already posted is (...) (17 years ago, 27-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) You're welcome. I think we need to get both my Intel-only version and your PPC-only version put together somewhere. It also might be good to do a Mac OSX PPC build, since I believe that yours requires Classic, which isn't exactly optimal. Mine (...) (17 years ago, 27-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: l2rib and LDraw.org Mac Downloads Review
 
(...) And thanks to you for updating the LDraw site. Jim (17 years ago, 27-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
(...) Travis, This is a valuable resource to have. I'm glad to see this software isn't doomed to the dustbin of history. Thank you! Allen (17 years ago, 27-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
 
  Re: l2rib and LDraw.org Mac Downloads Review
 
(...) thx for the updates. (...) I added the icons. (...) this has to be added as separate link 'cos PN doesn't allow more than one URL per download. (...) I deleted the entry for LDView for Mac OSX 1.0 and added the icons for linux and mac (though (...) (17 years ago, 27-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: BrickFest 2001 Photos of Jessimans?
 
(...) I totally forgot that the old version of the site was still online. That's pretty cool :-) I seem to recall a photo taken with me and the Jessimans, maybe I'm misremembering. I think what's there might be it, thanks, Travis! -Tim (17 years ago, 25-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.people)
 
  l2rib and LDraw.org Mac Downloads Review
 
A few notes based on a browse through the (URL) Downloads> page: (URL) l2rib>, a utility that converts LDraw files to RenderMan format, builds and runs on Mac OS X (make -f Makefile.unix). I do not have a RenderMan compliant renderer (there are a (...) (17 years ago, 25-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  Re: BrickFest 2001 Photos of Jessimans?
 
(...) Well, there's a photo here: (URL) course, since you wrote that article, you probably already know about that one. Note that there's another version of the same article in the "new" part of the site, but it's not formatted nearly as nicely.) (...)

  BrickFest 2001 Photos of Jessimans?
 
I'm trying to track down a few photos taken in 2001 of Don and Robyn Jessiman and some LDraw-folk while they were in DC for the fest. I've checked the obvious BrickShelf folders -- Bram, Lar, Steve Bliss, etc. -- to no avail. Does anyone either have (...)

  Re: Copy of MacMegaPov 0.7
 
I realized that in my previous message, I never actually mentioned that I built the executable that I link to. I built it from the MegaPOV 0.7 source using (mostly) the Unix settings from the regular POV source. I set it to output PNG files by (...) (17 years ago, 21-Jul-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
