(...) I'd also like to say that I prefer lowercase names and, of course, we should keep the 8.3 filename convention to keep compatibility with DOS programs. (...) You could also explain how to create associations for most WM out there (KDE and (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Are these parts in ldraw?
 
I am unsure whether these are the same as the arm piece with pin and x fingers. Can someone confirm this and alo point me to the third item? (URL) Wilson wilsonj@xoommail.com (URL) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Idea for making rubber bands.
 
What you have is this: You have several part files for the ends, one for each of the sizes of pulley Then you have 1 or more part files for the length of the rubber band, which are just straight cylinders that can be placed next to each other and (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: OMR Filenaming Standard Change?
 
(...) Yes. All hoses and such like should be in a submodel. -- Jonathan Wilson wilsonj@xoommail.com (URL) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: OMR Filenaming Standard Change?
 
One thing that I just thought of as I was making a set is that we also ought to have a submodel for hoses, just like we do for minifigs, that way all those hose sections are in their own file. We could name it hose1.dat, hose2.dat, etc. I think that (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, lugnet.cad.dev)

  LDLite Download Page Online!
 
Since Paul Gyugyi's site crashed some time ago, LDLite has not been available on the web for download. Paul and I exchanged some email about a week ago and we set up the LDLite download page on ldraw.org, to make it available once again. The page is (...)

  Re: Ldlite for OpenGL and Linux (and uppercase filenames)
 
Steve: (...) Now that I know it is possible to unpack ARJ files on Linux, I think it is better that we stick to that format, and don't start spending time on additional formats until it becomes neccesary. (...)

Augh! I accidently deleted my inbox for partsref@worldnet.att.net.[1] This should not be more than an annoyance (and mostly just for me), because I save all the submitted part files to my hard drive.

  Re: Ldlite for OpenGL and Linux (and uppercase filenames)
 
OK, someone posts a significant improvement/expansion of ldLite, ported to gcc, running on Windows and Linux, and WHAT do you people talk about? DOS names? ZIP files? ldGLite is at an early stage, much like ldLite was at v0.3. Can those who know (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldlite for OpenGL and Linux (and uppercase filenames)
 
(...) No, but infozipped is. Actually, InfoZip (executables are called zip and unzip) is pkzip compatable, and freely available on Unix, Win32, Mac, VMS, DOS, etc. It can zip / unzip through pipes, and has support for multi-volume or split archives.

  Re: Ldlite for OpenGL and Linux (and uppercase filenames)
 
(...) Pardon me for my ignorance, but is gzipped at all like pkzipped? I'd go for MPD distribution, but that would require a two-step distribution: un-compress the file, then mpdsplit it. And unless there was a 'delete MPD archive' included as a (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Can somone do me a favor
 
I was wondering if one of you could do up just the pattern for a firefighter maltese cross that would fit on a 1x3x1 car door. Since that isn't a very large area there wouldn't be able to be much detail, so that should make it pretty easy. If you (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ldlite for OpenGL and Linux (and uppercase filenames)
 
(...) Thanks for the tip. I just tried this. The files unpacked themselves in lowercase, so I vote for lowercase as the standard for files in the p and parts directories on case sensitive filesystems. This reverses my earlier vote for UPPERCASE, but (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Parts from 8448 not LDrawn
 
(...) The small shock absorber in 8448 is different from the one we already have in LDraw, as the spring has fewer coil windings. Fredrik (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Has anyone made any of the transmission parts for ldraw yet?
 
(...) You can use the 3739/3740 combo, as they are the same diameter as the 8880 wheels. Drawn by Chris Moseley, these parts are really well done, I'd say. How are you going to design such a large vehicle without any LEGO bricks to build with? (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Parts from 8448 not LDrawn
 
(...) I don't understand what you mean by "Znap Axle". Du you mean the rubber like flexible axle-shaped "hoses" with 8 LDU diameter connector pins at each end? Are these really Znap originated? (Of course, living in Norway, I don't know the Znap (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Whats Happened to LDLITE and LGEO?

(...) And the commands should go in the input file:) (took me a little time to figure that out:)) Nice tool! It was really helpful.

  Re: mirroring parts
 
(...) One way to do this with the tools you have at hand would be to put the portion you want to mirror in a subpart, mirror the reference to this manually, and then inline the subpart again to retrieve it mirrored. Fredrik (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Parts from 8448 not LDrawn
