Yikes! I was just trying to put the update together, and realized that we did not have a suitable name for the cannon: 30359.DAT Space Star Wars Cannon I would _prefer_ that we not leave it as-is. Come on people, where to put it? What do you think (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

|

Lars, Is L3P supposed to substitute for the 2-4cyls.dat primitive? I just L3P'd the Minifig Longbow, and it looked great except for the 2-4cyls.dat which were turned into quads and really stood out. I'm using v1.1 if that helps. -John Van (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
