  Re: LDGLite sketch feature (Was: Ldglite bug report)
 
(...) substituted "L3View.cpp" with (URL), deactivated off-screen rendering in the make file, and compiled. But when I try to use it: jsproat.ldglite -mc fly.mpd I just get the usual image. Is your function hidden in some Win32 specific code? Should (...) (22 years ago, 25-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDGLite sketch feature (Was: Ldglite bug report)
 
(...) Let's re-write that, and break it up a bit: - modified function DrawPart() - color 24 is replaced with CurColor instead of edge_color(CurColor), just like color 16 - switch(LinePtr->LineType) cases 3 and 4 use a constant color 15 - (...) (22 years ago, 25-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDGLite sketch feature (Was: Ldglite bug report)
 
(...) I didn't add any flags, I still haven't taken the time to learn that part of the code yet. However, the only changes were to L3View.cpp, and are very straightforward. Note that this is just a proof-of-concept, and is far from being ready for (...) (22 years ago, 25-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) Cool, thanks. I've never had much luck with windows and cvs and sourceforge, so your batch file should prove to be useful in snarfing the latest source. (...) Again, thanks. Does it include the latest changes you made for the line endcaps? (...) (22 years ago, 25-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) I've been pounding on ldglite and I think I've gotten the effect I was thinking of. I have a screenshot here (warning: 1024x768x32 PNG ahead): (URL) I made: - line types 3 and 4 render in white - color 24 renders same color as 16 (to make up (...)

  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)

I ended up having to rebuild libpng and libz because I was hitting against an "unresolved __imp__iob" linker error with the libpng supplied in ldglitesrc0_9_5.zip. Evidently, (...)

  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) Yeah, I knew about that. I've also heard some hardware opengl drivers have a max width of 1. I was kinda hoping nobody would notice. I mean 20 pixel wide lines? Who needs that much? Perhaps Sproat can enlighten us on what he plans to do with (...) (22 years ago, 25-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) I think it's missing a source file, glfont.c . Hmmm, how'd that get in the makefile? Did you grab the latest makefile out of CVS or something like that? Anyhow, you don't really need it and can remove it from the makefile. I think USE_GLFONT (...) (22 years ago, 25-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) So I decided to get off my duff and see if I could contribute more than just testing efforts, and installed MINGW32 v1.1 and the GLUT headers/libs, etc. and set about to build ldglite for myself. I think it's missing a source file, glfont.c . (...) (22 years ago, 25-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) You might find the following info from Microsoft's help page on glGet useful: GL_LINE_WIDTH_RANGE The params parameter returns two values: the smallest and largest supported widths for antialiased lines. See glLineWidth. That's the first I'd (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) I applied the fix Travis pointed out, and it seems to smooth out some of the bumpies in antialiased mode with wide lines on my PC. Give it a try: http:\\ldglite.sourc...e_test.zip I also noticed that the opengl drivers seem to top out their (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Segmented parts (ie hoses and flex tubes)
 
(...) Doing so would cause a problem with LeoCad which doesn't display primitives not included in a part. This is the case with flexible axles (created form primitives), they have to be created as part, then imported as new part in LeoCad library... (...)

  Re: Segmented parts (ie hoses and flex tubes)
 
(...) Actually, the part mentioned was in the Parts directory (it is an official part), so it would presumably be shrunk by L3P. As for the rest, I agree that making them primitives makes sense, but I'm not sure the part authors will agree. I guess (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Segmented parts (ie hoses and flex tubes)
 
(...) I think it would be reasonable to consider segments as primitives. Move them to the P folder. Then they will not be shrunk. End pieces are still considered as parts. I don't know how the curve generator works, but if it generates a new (...) (22 years ago, 24-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)

  Re: Segmented parts (ie hoses and flex tubes)
 
(...) This sounds like a good idea to me, except for one thing: the 0 LDRAW_ORG lines are generated at release-time by the release script. Every type listed is determined by other data in the file, or about the file -- parts are in the /parts (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Segmented parts (ie hoses and flex tubes)
 
Looking at some of the files generated using the new curve generator LDDesignPad plugin by Orion (as well as files generated by the EMacs macro it is based on), I noticed a problem when displaying with LDView (which might also effect L3P output).

  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...)

In addition, it may be that cards that don't (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Yet another idea - Portable LDraw system

  Part 3650a
 
Does anyone remember with certainty why part file 3650a.dat was released with the 'a' suffix? The part came out in update 98-10, and hasn't been touched since. There's no 3650.dat or 3650b.dat, as far as I can tell. Steve (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DAT files: Do No Harm

  Re: Ldglite bug report (Was: Portable Ldraw system)
 
(...) I try to think of the -a as a rotation matrix for the model, whereas the -cc stuff is a manipulation of the view matrix. Unfortunately the LDRAW default -a matrix "squishes" the model as if it were a view matrix. I guess this is because the (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DAT files: Do No Harm

(...) OK I added it. Ldglite now takes -cg<la>,<lo>,<r> like l3p, and I like it. I admit it's not exactly like l3p since I still leave the origin at ldraw world coords (0,0,0) whereas l3p moves them to the center of the bounding box of the model. (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Mindstorms Parts?
 
I've seen a bunch of models out there that use the Mindstorms parts (e.g. the RCX) but I can't seem to find them in the Ldraw site files. Where do I get the parts files for Mindstorms?
