  Re: DAT voting page up
 
(...) Except the actual text-parts are done in negative-space. There aren't any drawing commands for them in the part-file. If you delete the 3004.dat reference, the text disappears (because the background shows through where text should be). Steve (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Well, duh. Why didn't I think of that? Steve (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DAT voting page up
 
(...) Well, that all makes sense. What it needs is some optional lines, not hard-lines. No biggie. Like you said, this part goes inside the other (and as far as I know, won't attach to any other brick any other way). (...) I don't think this needs a (...)

(...) You know, these wouldn't be so hard to do... I've already made files with line-drawings of all the numerals. Just need a hyphen, and (I think) an L and R, and we're good to go. Steve (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Hi x996 / x998 Do the 1 x 8 light bricks really look like this - what set are these from. On the Blacktron II Base the two 1 x 8 light bricks are identical with the lights midway between studs - and the studs have hollow tops. Chris Dee (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  RE: DAT voting page up
 
(...) Yes, there is a huge amount of studs hiding inside other bricks. Anybody got an intelligent algorithm? This would be applicable for LDLite too and save a lot of unnecessary rendering. However, watch out for transparent bricks... /Lars (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  RE: DAT voting page up
 
(...) POV-Ray certainly requires a LOT of memory when using the L3P -q3 option. Parsing time increases very much. However, the rendering time isn't that much longer as one could have feared. Probably because POV-Ray has some efficient internal (...) (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  RE: DAT voting page up
 
(...) Yes, but from the LDraw triangles and quads alone it requires some heavy analysis to decide whether to add or subtract the small offset. I think we have some patterned inverted slopes... /Lars (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  RE: DAT voting page up
 
(...) No. I should have been more specific: If two surfaces coincide, the viewing ray will due to small numerical inaccuracies sometimes hit the one surface first and sometimes the other surface first. If the surfaces are colored differently (...) (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

does anyone have the baseplate 32 x 32 raised with ramp as a real bit of plastic? if so could they please tell me the arangement of studs in the "pit" in the middle so I can fix my part (when i fix this i will remove the needs work tag) (26 years ago, 25-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
