  Re: Spring2dat an utility tool to create shock absorber springs
 
(...) WOW! How can you come up with all those shock absorber parts in such a short space of time.

  Re: LDraw on Mac (Off Topic)
 
(...) Unfortunately VPC is rather processor-intensive. I have a G3 Powerbook 266 and Windows 98 runs pretty dern slow. However it is liveable and I have also ran VPC on my Performa 6400/200 at about 486 speeds. Good luck! (24 years ago, 10-May-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDraw on Mac (Off Topic)
 
(...) What type of Mac do you have? I hope that VPC isn't too processor-intensive or anything, because I'm running on an older PowerBase 240. Thanks a lot for the help, though! I hope to install VPC either today or tomorrow. Sonny (24 years ago, 9-May-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  reminder: bug in piece #2500c01
 
I'd like to take this opportunity to note a persistent, unfixed bug: piece 2500c01.dat has a reference to 4-4cone1.dat, which doesn't exist. now, we have two seperate '4-4cone' primitives: 4-4con1.dat (originally 4-4con12.dat, renamed in august 99) (...)

  Re: LDraw extended colors (for Paul Gyugyi)
 
(...) I just now noticed the thread. (Thanks for the email). I'll add support for the 24-bit range, it is a good idea. I'll look into the documentation bug. The code is correct and I'll change the docs to match. For the scaling, multiplying by 17 (...) (24 years ago, 5-May-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Suggestions for new primitives: Flex-System hoses.
 
(...) Yeah, I'll run the primitive past the committee. A couple of things stand out immediately: - The primitive's name should be 4-4con8.dat, not 4-4co89.dat. - Primitives (especially the curved variety) should go to 4 decimal places. Actually, I (...) (24 years ago, 4-May-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Suggestions for new primitives: Flex-System hoses.
 
(...) I've posted these now. The word "primitive" in the subject is probably not the correct term: "sub part" is probably better. Here's the example files with descriptions and the individual sub parts in MPD format: (2 URLs) latter also has an (...) (24 years ago, 4-May-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Wow, what a cool Mecha rendering on that page! I'll tinker with the app and see where I get. Usually I'm more inclined to go build something else with real Lego than to sit down and build the same thing again virtually. ~Mark (...) source? (...) (...) (24 years ago, 3-May-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
