  Txt2Dat, utility to convert text to LDraw
 
I've created a small utility program (and supporting DAT files) to create LDraw displays from text messages. It's currently very limited; it only handles numbers, letters, and some whitespace. To check it out, go to my page at (URL) and follow the (...) (25 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Space Craters Baseplate?
 
(...) I once started to make it, but, as Terry says, it _is_ pretty difficult to model. I have the plate with the proper studs on it and the complete outline of the "hill". Wasn't there someone that could convert 3D Studio Max to DAT. I think it (...) (25 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I just did a check on the numbers availability. According to my list, at some point in time 973, 974, & 978 have been used. At least they are not included in my list of 'free' numbers. But they are not in any current usage, and they they are (...) (25 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) No, the cratered baseplate has not been done. That one may take a while, as it would be pretty difficult to model. -- Terry K -- (25 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Torso number was Forestman Torso was Voting Page
 
(...) It *was*. But that also means that it *IS*. There almost certainly is a composite torso out there with the number 9326 (ask Joshua).

  Re: Torso number was Forestman Torso was Voting Page
 
(...) Are you suggesting using the spare character as a theme-flag, or are you thinking of something else entirely? It would be kind of cool to use a one- or two-character sub-theme id, and then number within that theme. So if all the Ice Planet (...) (25 years ago, 13-May-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Suggestion for LDraw FAQ
 
[crossposted to lugnet.faq and lugnet.cad.dev, followup-to set to lugnet.faq] Looking at the LDraw FAQ, it looks like a new level of organization is needed, above the current levels. More precisely, a large number of the topics should be grouped (...) (25 years ago, 13-May-99, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) So waittaminut. I read you writing that 9326 *was* a number for the composite torso-with-arms-and-hands, but is not any longer used for that purpose.
