  Re: mouse model manipulation
 
(...) Wow, the l3 parser is much faster even when comments are being written to the console, but the behavior is the same. The model is rotating on the Lego rotisserie always in the same direction. Here is the output pdn(324, 175), -> (4.00, 65.00, (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: Self-Certification in parts tracker
 
(...) I don't recall the discussion either, but that doesn't change my opinion (...) I think is new system is WAY better. Take a look at part 2598 and you'll see why I think this way. I'd rather have the process be slow and put out quality vice (...) (22 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: mouse model manipulation
 
(...) What am I saying. At 50% zoom, 100 pixels will rotate it by x*2 degrees. So basically, the same "perspective" drag distance will rotate it the same. Don't know if this is a good idea or not. James (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: mouse model manipulation
 
(...) I like the idea of absolute based on the zoom. So, at 100% zoom, 100 pixels will rotate it x degrees. At 50% zoom, 100 pixels will rotate it by x/2 degrees. Just my idea. I don't know if it would actually be nicer or not. James (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
 
  Re: dithered colors w/ Jango Fett Helmet/Jetpack
 
(...) its really a dull silvery chrome part. like as the new spiderman green goblin set, there are dull chrome parts in it. try 503 pov might not do it as chrome (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: dithered colors w/ Jango Fett Helmet/Jetpack
 
(...) More or less. Except that --eek!-- the page has disappeared! :o It's back now: (URL). I restored the page from an old file, it needs some ... work. But it's better than nothing, for now. Steve (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: dithered colors w/ Jango Fett Helmet/Jetpack
 
(...) Yes. Color-383 is the "official" choice for "Silver". Furthermore, the chrome on my Boba Fett jetpacks look like silver to me. However, please do _not_ make the default color of any file anything other than "Main Color" (color-16); do not (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: dithered colors w/ Jango Fett Helmet/Jetpack
 
(...) AAAaaaaaah! so that's the reason! (...) Yes, that's VERY helpful. I will fix that immediately, and repost. A question though: Should I really use color 383 (chrome) for the body of Jango's helmpack and the details on Boba's? Neither of them (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New Part: Jango Fett Helmet/Jetpack
 
And the "exponential" numbers need to be converted to just plain zero. Franklin (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New Part: Jango Fett Helmet/Jetpack
 
Also, you'll need to remove the "WRITE" statements from the file before uploading it to the Tracker. HTH. ;-) Franklin (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: dithered colors w/ Jango Fett Helmet/Jetpack
 
Tim, You need to make extra subfiles, for the dithered colors. (LDraw requires this; otherwise, LDraw messes up rendering the dithered colors.) "Dithered colors" are those color codes from 256 to 511. (for ex.): Simply copy all the quads for (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: mouse model manipulation
 
(...) The cursor does not disappear when the you drag the mouse with button pressed. However, neither does it "warp" back to the center of the window when it leaves the window - the cursor just moves as expected. (Although since I don't know OpenGL (...)

  Re: bushman hat...
 
[fut --> ".dev" ] (...) I don't recall who did it, but I do recall that someone did encode a version of the bushman hat. I don't recall if he ever posted the file to LUGNet, though... (I just recall seeing the file at someone's website.) HTH, (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: 30375cs0.dat, "MiniBot SW Battle Droid (complete)"
 
(...) [cue fx="light bulb" ] Ahhh! I see. Sorry, my bad. (...) Well, since the torso has three different "Star Wars" patterns (so far), for a total of four different battle droid "short cut" assemblies for the "Star Wars" theme, I still think we (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: 30375cs0.dat, "MiniBot SW Battle Droid (complete)"
 
(...) Because it's an assembled item, based on unpatterned/decorated parts. Actually, since this file does *not* represent a part as delivered by TLC[1], the title should be flagged (Shortcut), not (Complete) (or (complete), as you put it). (...) In (...)

  Re: Self-Certification in parts tracker
 
(...) I do *NOT* recall this discussion. Was this on LUGNet? How long ago? Or, was it on "RTL"? (Does anyone still use "RTL"?) Also, FWIW, I asked Steve, before I ever did any self-certification, if he had any qualms about this. He said that if (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: 30375cs0.dat, "MiniBot SW Battle Droid (complete)"
 
[FUT ".dev"] (...) Uh, why? Part # 30375 isn't unique the the "Star Wars" theme, it's used in the "Life on Mars" theme as well, so I thougt that the theme should be part of the filename (as with pattern numbers). Since there are three patterns for (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Issue with some of the holds on the Parts Tracker
 
This post wasn't directed at you specifically, it's been brewing for some time now. Actually, the holds you put on today were more or less justified but the hold I've seen in the past have sometime bordered on the ridiculous. -Orion (make it (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Self-Certification in parts tracker
 
I agree with Carsten. I think self certification is contrary to reason the parts tracker was formed, to put out quality error free parts. Those of you out there who work in fields where Quality Assurance is a big deal understand why self-cert can be (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Self-Certification in parts tracker
 
Hello! I thought we talked/discussed about self-certification in the parts tracker and came to the conclusion that self-certifications shouldn't be done. I noticed lateley that people submit parts to the parts tracker and self certify these right (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
