  Compiling MPD Builder/Splitter for DOS/Win?
 
I have ended up in a place with _no_ DOS and MS-Win** systems, so I can't get to compile the updated versions of the MPD Builder and the MPD Splitter. Can I get somebody to compile these two programs and send me the binaries? I think DOS versions (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: To Tore Eriksson
 
I agree with Chris. Putting color names in parts just seems wrong to me. Isn't the gray notchless version used in modern sets such as the wildwest miningish set (bandit's hideaway?) and for overhead crane rails in 4555? I could be wrong. But I'd (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

There are commands in 3DS and 3DSMAX to "unify" normals (normals are what we're discussing... the vector that points perpendicular to a face, indicating which side is "out", which side is shaded or rendered)... i would assume there is documentation (...)

Here are 50 messages regarding the above subjects. The first from January 1998 where Leonardo Zide suggested CW/CCW. I support the CW/CCW idea (isn't it annoying knowing almost 50% of all faces are drawn to waste), though it will cost a considerable (...) (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hello Tore, Do you have another E-mail adress, technical problems, or are you too involved with some other issue ? I've send a mail about part #3228 to your pesonal address about one week ago. Should I send it again ? Greetings, Manfred Moolhuysen. (25 years ago, 29-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
