(...) Ok, can a model larger than 8.3 be *viewed* in LEdit? I'm not talking about editing, but just viewing. Try opening a file you have named bigger than 8.3 in LEdit and see what happens. If it works, then lets just screw the 8.3 system. -Tim (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) If the subdirectory system can be worked out accurately and duplicated on users' machines, then I am for it instead. It keeps the 8.3 system and allows more freedom and can cover the rare oddities. -Tim Courtney ldraw.org Project Coordinator (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
