(...) Oh, right. Sorry. THAT IS AN INTERESTING IDEA. (1) :-) -- Terry K -- 1. Do I tend to over-emphasise things? (25 years ago, 8-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Steve Bliss skrev i meddelandet <375bdf5e.3285247@lu...et.com>... (...) Well, there's always my LDList program, which can help you search in multiple categories (See blurb below). A CTRL-C copies the found line, and you can then paste into any text (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Voting page 9905
 
Basically what I've got are 3 different variants in one color, which I'm sure really isn't that uncommon... though there are 3 versions of the Fig. Blue, Maroon and Black. I've already talk to Terry about this, and I believe he's letting it go at (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I've occasionally tried to discuss this in relation to the 0 CATEGORY meta-statement, but I haven't gotten much response. Steve (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDAO Suggestion
 
(...) That would break the standard LDraw file-search approach, and would only work in LDAO. Since LDAO does very little work by itself, this wouldn't be very useful. (...) My idea was to have LDAO search model files (at least the ones not in (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Voting page 9905
 
(...) You mean the torsos in the vote are from the older forestman sets? I thought someone said that the maroon ones were from 6079. Oh well, nevermind then. :) I always thought they looked more red though... Jeff (...) torsoes. (...) looked (...) (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Voting page 9905
 
Three colors, you say? A red version (not in my possession, but claimed to exist) and a black version (illustrated on Fibblesnork) are with Terry for a future vote. Do you have red too? With blue and maroon this makes four. Any others? Chris (...) (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Voting page 9905
 
6079 is the newer style forestmen.. these are the older original style, with more of a "gear" on their chest.. not the pointy "sprouts" on the Dark Forest figures. They are maroon.. among other colors as Terry and I have found out... I've got 3 (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) movement (...) I noticed something over the weekend about the maroon-collar Forestman torsoes. I was looking at the instructions for 6079 and the color of the collar is brown! This intrigued me, so I checked my minifigs, and the collar sure (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDAO Suggestion
 
(...) Since I'm using that bane to civilization known as VB, a lot of the Explorer-style interface is available, I just don't want to recreate the guts (new file, dragging-and-dropping files, etc). Unfortunately, it would make sense to do just that. (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Lossless outlining (Was: [ldraw.org] Progress)
 
(...) Adding a closing tag (and unique ID) is a good idea, and something that should have been done from the start. It would solve the problem of identifying the chunk of code to reverse out, and restoring the original referencing file would be (...)

  Re: [ldraw.org] Progress
 
(...) Well, it looks like there is a valid difference of opinion here about which format, and 2 are rather prevalent. I think we should continue discussing advantages and disadvantages and eventually vote on it. I would put my vote in for MPD if (...)

  Re: Lossless outlining (Was: [ldraw.org] Progress)
 
(...) I thought about that, but I was concerned about the burden of differentiating between comments and random extensions to LDraw (ie, new meta-commands). Maybe LDAO should provide/maintain a list of known meta-commands? Then the Inliner could (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: fixes??

  L3G0 in Windows
 
I've ported the Netshade ray-tracing program to Windows and sucessfully used it to render models based on the L3G0 library of parts. Most people use POV nowadays, but if you have some old files based on the Rayshade/Netshade version of the L3G0 (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: [ldraw.org] Progress
 
I'll put in my two-cents: gzip'ed tar files would be an excellent replacement for MPD. And Winzip handles them OK. -gyug (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Lossless outlining (Was: [ldraw.org] Progress)
 
The matrix math will not always invert, although if the matrix is a pure rotation (with no scaling or shears) the transpose of the matrix is the inverse. A better solution would be for the inliner to apply a start and a stop tag for each inlined (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
