  Re: [LCAD admin] plz re-name files...
 
(...) Cool. Thanks. Also, those two files needed their Title fixed (missing the descriptor "Double", indicating fingers on both ends), and the Keywords removed. Thanks, Franklin (23 years ago, 3-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: [LCAD admin] plz re-name files...
 
(...) OK, I've renumbered these parts. Steve (23 years ago, 3-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Part naming question for different versions of the same part
 
Part 4066 is a Duplo 1x2x2 brick. I'm wondering primarily about naming conventions. This part comes in two versions. The newer version allows a Duplo top-center stud to bind in the center, and the old one doesn't (it has a supporting structure in (...) (23 years ago, 3-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  [LCAD admin] plz re-name files...
 
Steve, I believe that I may have used the wrong part number for a couple of my files on the Parts Tracker. I'm specifically referring to the two patterned files I made for the 1x4 click-hinge brick: 30388p01 and 30388p02. I believe these should be (...) (23 years ago, 3-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New Part: x192.dat - Minifig Shield Round
 
(...) Assuming some reasonable limit on the size of a number in digits (say 20 total including before and after the decimal place, that allows a very big and pretty precise number) isn't there sort of an upper bound on the line length likely to be (...)

  Re: New Part: x192.dat - Minifig Shield Round
 
(...) It's a weakness of the posting method (the file came in via email). I believe the line-wrapping was performed by Willy's email software. I recommend that all DAT content be posted via LUGNET's web interface, to avoid this line-wrapping issue. (...) (23 years ago, 3-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: What about BFC-ing studs? (was: Two questions on primitives)
 
(...) Sorry, I got distracted. I'll get back to BFC'ing and submitting those primitives. [snip] (...) You're working on an incorrect assumption here. Reflecting a subfile (ie, negating the multipliers for one dimension) will not invert the subfile. (...)

  Re: New Part: x192.dat - Minifig Shield Round
 
When I downloaded this part, I can see that Lugnet's DAT download truncated the lines to 80 characters. This totally mangled the part. Is this a weakness of the Lugnet interface, or is it enforcing a standard? In other words, are part file lines (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Mac OS 9 - ldglite crashing, more info
 
OK, it will probably take me a day or three to get all of this done. What do you mean "by turning on the debugging symbols in CW? I haven't read the CW manual or anything like it (again, I remind, I am only a novice programmer, got a degree in music (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Mac OS 9 - ldglite crashing, more info
 
(...) Install macsbug. When it crashes, type 'stdlog'. That will create a log file called 'stdlog' (on the desktop on this machine). Then type 'es' to get out of the app that crashed. Sometimes if things are really hosed, you may have to type 'rs' (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Mac OS 9 - ldglite crashing, more info
 
(...) I don't know where this ldraw folder came from. I thought it was the linux parts, but maybe I am wrong. Maybe it was the linux parts expanded on Mac OS X... I don't know. I recently rounded up all of my ldraw folders that I have collected over (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Mac OS 9 - ldglite crashing, more info
 
(...) I used the original Mac parts file and haven't crashed yet. (...) Is it really freezing the system, or just the app? Can you Force Quit? Matt (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Mac OS 9 - ldglite crashing, more info
 
OK, so I finally was able to do some tests on what I posted about earlier (ldglite on Mac OS 9 crashing with lowercase files). Well, lower case isn't why it was crashing. I could download the linux files onto 2 different Macs with OS 9.2.2 and OS (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  What about BFC-ing studs? (was: Two questions on primitives)
 
(...) Okay... if this is the case, then what's the status on bringing the less-primitive primitives into BFC certification? Take studs for example. Studs strike me as a great candidate for getting BFC'd because of the potentially huge payoff. Of (...)

  Mac OS X - LdGLite Launcher .8
 
I have thrown together a AppleScript Studio application that functions as a launcher for ldglite. It makes it fairly easy IMHO. (I was getting sick of trying to launch ldglite all the time) Those with Mac OS X, check it out at: (URL) (23 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Hi-res sphere?
 
(...) Sorry about the delayed response, but I was on vacation. I'll take a look at my sphere generation code as well and at the very least determine the difficulty of adding type 5 lines. I don't think it will be very difficult to do, but I haven't (...) (23 years ago, 31-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Two questions on primitives
 
(...) One other thing,[1] the primitives which are most commonly used with the INVERTNEXT flag/statement are the *-*cyli.dat files.

  Re: GLUT for MacOS X
 
Dietmar Planitzer has a release 4 of his GLUT for Mac OS X. Menus are not any longer on the menu bar, they are contextual menus on the individual windows. Lots of other changes were described - this guy is really keen on GLUT. The URL is still: (...) (23 years ago, 31-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Online Mac instructions.
 
(...) I would strongly suspect that the ANSI C functions that you are calling are internally using the Mac (HFS) File System. I don't see how it could do otherwise. The library functions may be doing a crafty dance to accomplish certain things, but (...) (23 years ago, 30-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
