        Re: suggestion for roadplate like parts —Steve Bliss
   (...) That's a good general suggestion for patterned parts. Some parts are already set up this way -- the minifig torsos are one example. I don't think there are any baseplates where there is more than one patterned element for any one basic (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

         Re: suggestion for roadplate like parts —Steve Bliss
     If you have all these parts, and you want LDraw part-files for them, I'd be willing to work on making the files. Scan at 64dpi (that's 'life size' for LDraw), and e-mail them to me. Steve (...) (25 years ago, 16-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
    
         Re: suggestion for roadplate like parts —Jeff Stembel
     (...) I don't have all of them, but I do have many. I'll see what I can do(1)! Jeff (1) I don't have constant access to a scanner, so it might take me a while. (25 years ago, 16-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
    
         Re: suggestion for roadplate like parts —Steve Bliss
     (...) That's fine, I'm willing to make the parts, but I'm not highly motivated for it. Steve (25 years ago, 16-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: Minifig torso subpart (was suggestion for roadplate like parts) —Chris Dee
     (...) Actually the minifig torsos are an atypical example, I think, since the "subpart" (9326-4t.dat) is still in the Parts directory. For more recent decorated parts we have utilised the \S subdirectory. Does anyone have any objections if we move (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
    
         Re: Minifig torso subpart (was suggestion for roadplate like parts) —Terry Keller
     (...) I absolutely agree to this. 9326-4t.dat does not belong in \parts. Hmm... how many are there? Little over a dozen? Yeah, I could do that. But I might be lazy and just leave it with the same file name. -- Terry K -- (25 years ago, 16-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
    
         Re: Minifig torso subpart (was suggestion for roadplate like parts) —Leonardo Zide
     (...) If we're going to change all torsos, why not remove the faces from their back as well ? There are some minifigs that have patterns in the back (like the one from the xtreme team) and in the future someone will probably model them.

     (...) That would be a wise idea. Chris? -- Terry K -- (25 years ago, 17-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
    
         Re: Minifig torso subpart (was suggestion for roadplate like parts) —Chris Dee
     (...) Yes, I agree, but this will mean more work to change the existing decorated torsos - adding three extra quads as well as changing the call to 9326-4t.dat and changing that subpart. I can do this, but it will take a little time - is that OK? (...) (25 years ago, 17-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

         Re: Minifig torso subpart (was suggestion for roadplate like parts) —Steve Bliss
     (...) And I will take care of the back-sides as well. Chris, is it OK with you if I finish the detailing of the two torsos (dungarees and BT2, I think) that reference 9326.dat, instead of 9326-4t.dat? They both need to have the undecorated surface (...)

         Re: Minifig torso subpart (was suggestion for roadplate like parts) —Steve Bliss
     (...) OK, they're done. Besides drawing the non-patterned areas, I also moved the original pattern-commands to z=-10. Steve (25 years ago, 20-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: suggestion for roadplate like parts —Jonathan Wilson
   there are other plates with more than one pattern: e.g. the 7-stud straight roadplate (comes in shuttle landing pad,airport runway plate,road plate). (25 years ago, 16-Apr-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
