  Re: Part Numbering Crisis in LDraw
 
(...) You've just hit on my pet peeve with the approach of using the most official numbers for LDraw parts -- often, the most official number is *not* the one you find stamped on the part. This will be true if: - You are looking at a multi-part (...) (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DAT voting page up
 
(...) Now, if they were going backwards, they'd really be moonwalking[1] Steve [1] A dance move made popular by Michael Jackson, where the dancer walks backward, but makes it look like they are walking forward. (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: DAT voting page up
 
(...) True, but it's also a precedent. I'd rather have the bottom surface than curved edges. I'd consider a part with all surfaces more accurate than a part with closely-modeled upper surfaces, but the underside completely missing. Maybe I'm just (...) (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Soccer ball pattern
 
(...) Seems like there should be a soccer-ball tessalation[1] somewhere on the web, which could be ported to LDraw relatively easily. Steve [1] May be a mis-use of the term -- not sure of the limits on tessalations. (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Soccer ball name

  Re: DAT voting page up
 
(...) In this case, all the tile elements probably have new, 5-digit part numbers. It would be appropriate to use these numbers for new versions of the tile. In general, if TLG modifies a part but retains the original part number, appending a letter (...) (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Java LDraw/LDLite
 
(...) An online database isn't going to completely address your two issues -- missing parts and parts which haven't been created. Typically, parts will be missing from a model either because (a) the parts aren't made yet (and it's actually problem (...) (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: parts wanted
 
(...) Well, as I said, there's a draft at (URL) specifically, here's the DAT-file, and a GIF image (2 URLs) not finished, but I may or may not finish it in some time. Also, I'm not too sure that I have used the best orientation. The orientation of (...) (26 years ago, 1-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Where is the Parts Tracker?
 
(...) Maybe you could add an option to move a part from the request list to the parts tracker. When someone starts to work on a part from the request list instead of adding a new entry, the person would just modify the existing entry and the script (...)
