  Re: Is there a Part creating Tutorial?
 
(...) I used the BMP to Dat converter that is in Steve's LDraw Add-on. Is that acceptable? If not, do you have any suggestions on what I should use? Should I *not* be making the patterns as bitmaps (i.e. use internal shapes instead)? (...) That's (...) (26 years ago, 13-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Yes, your Hoth Battle scene is a great example of the types of things that could go in this group. In fact, your battle scene was what inspired the idea for the group. --Todd (26 years ago, 13-Apr-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) No, 5LDU is not accurate enough, especially for studs. Regular studs are always spaced *exactly* 20LDU apart. The only exceptions are some very odd, small bits. Depending on the part, studs will either be positioned on the even-number (...) (26 years ago, 13-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
