Carsten Schmitz <casz@gmx.de> wrote in message news:GA2AAx.DDt@lugnet.com... (...) Carsten - That's being addressed right now. Basically what is being done is we are developing a new parts approval system to make updates more 'realtime' to the parts (...) (24 years ago, 13-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Whats the difference between 6218 and 6259 ?
 
(...) Ok, that begs a question that I've been wanting to ask: what is the natural color of ABS ? Transparent/Clear ? Second question: what is the additive that gives us different colors ? Ray fut to .general (24 years ago, 13-Mar-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I've been told LEGO has different molds for transparent bricks because of shrinkage. (24 years ago, 13-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Whats the difference between 6218 and 6259 ?
 
(...) Is it safe to say that the image that we have for 6259 is identical (for our purposes) to the part moulded as 6218 ? Ray (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Whats the difference between 6218 and 6259 ?
 
(...) partsref (...) difference (...) I was able to lay my hands on 5 ClrDkBlue parts and all are marked 6259. And the grey ones on my Y-wing are 6218. IIRC the UFO quarter saucers used different mould numbers for the clear and opaque versions of (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

POV-Ray can use bitmaps as surface textures. I've never done this myself, but I've seen it done. -John Van "Ryan Farrington" <ryanjf@ifriendly.com> wrote in message news:002501c0ab09$c8...dly.com... (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Whats the difference between 6218 and 6259 ?
 
(...) Hmm, interesting. My half-cylinders from the Star Wars Y-Wing are also 6218's. I wonder if this is a situation where there are two different molds for opaque and transparent pieces. Does anyone have some transparent pieces to check? I can (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Do I use Dat2AutoCAD or is there a better way?
 
For a project I am working on, I need a picture of a datapad (which I posted to .models) with text displayed on its screen (and I don't mean a perfect front view). I rendered the model in POV-Ray, but have no idea of how to get the text on it, (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: shortcut - completed palm tree
 
Franklin, Well, I just called it "palmtree.dat" but since there is not an "official" part number for it, what about something starting with 25, since all the individual parts start with 25? Just an idea, and a scillie one I might add. Or, we could (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: shortcut - completed palm tree
 
(...) When I sent this one in (to Steve), I called it "x479.dat", but I'm wondering what we'll rename this short-cut. (_Especially_ since I'm _critically_ low on "temporary" part numbers; of the numbers I was given -- 460, and 462 thru 479 -- I've (...)

  What happened reagdring formalisation?
 
It's in the title but what was eventually decided about formalising LDraw.org? I ask because I had a new meta command I wanted to submit and wanated to send it to the right person!

  Whats the difference between 6218 and 6259 ?
 
I have a half cylinder 6218 in front of me. It looks exactly like the partsref image for 6259. Partsref does not have an entry for 6218. The parts list from peeron.com identifies both as 'Cylinder 2 x 4 x 4'. Anyone know the difference between these (...) (24 years ago, 9-Mar-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
