(...) It was certainly well deserved! BTW, I think that one week voting time is a bit limited. It's also a bit odd to go and look for contestants, and only find them one out of four weeks. How about a scheme were the models were up for voting for (...) (23 years ago, 3-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

Hi all, Sorry for being a day late, but I felt the need to have Jacob (the server admin for ldraw.org) verify the voting tallies. Not because it was close, but because I won. :-) (short pause here for a victory dance)... OK, <pant, pant) I'm back at (...)

Steve: (...) That's also my intention with them. Similarly are the POV-Ray colour codes intended to be the closest match for rendering the colours and transparancies in POV-Ray. Play well, Jacob -- (URL) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I don't suppose you could humor me and type: assoc .ldr at a command prompt and tell me what you get. Since we seem to be standardizing on the .ldr extension and the application/x-ldraw, it might be nice to standardize the rest of the junk (...) (23 years ago, 1-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I always thought the RGBs in the FAQ were supposed to be approximations of the 'real colors'. LDraw's palette is a poor match for real LEGO, and I'd hate to be stuck with it's selections. Although there were some values that we didn't have any (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Yes, but there are some problems: 1. LDraw (and LEdit) can't be changed to render new colors. So if we arbitrarily select color codes in the 0 - 255 range, the old programs won't work. 2. LDraw renders colors 17-31 the same as colors 1-15 (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Yeah, like Tim said: the file format is staying the same. There are only two changes going on: 1. LDraw.org semi-officially endorses the .LDR extension as the standard for LDraw files. This stance doesn't have a *direct* effect on anything. 2. (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I forgot to reply to this part of your message! Steve Bliss said that the RGB values in his table were from Suzanne D. Rich's LEGO colour page. Hence, they are approximations to the real RGB values of the bricks, not the averaged RGB values. (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) But isn't that the whole point? If I use the dithered colour 383 in a model, L3P will interpret it as chrome and use a special colour and reflection model for it. Rendering the same model in LDraw, however, will reveal that it is only a (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
