First off, lemme say wow, what a big set.  I couldn't finish it in one
sitting.  Thanks, Steve and everyone else!  :-,

Secondly, I'm serious when I vote "no" due to rotation centers.  If anyone
disagrees with me here, let's get a discussion going please.

...

Voting notes:

2546.dat - Animal Bird
Crashes LEdit!

3622p02.dat - Brick 1 x 3 with Control Panel Pattern
Isn't this the radio?  What happened to 3622p01 ?

3067p01.dat - Brick 1 x 6 without Centre Studs with 'Hotel' Pattern
Changing the color on this part alters the text color, not the brick color.

30149.dat - Car Base 4 x 5 with 2 Seats
Let's center this piece between some "top-level" studs, perhaps amongst the
front set.  Otherwise fine.

6085.dat - Cockpit 8 x 5 x 3
Ditto.

30361.dat - Cylinder 2 x 2 x 2 Robot Body
Ditto.  This one seems to be centered on the technic pin-holes, not very
useful for what is really a brick piece.

2562.dat - Minifig Gun Flintlock Pistol
To aid in most typical rotations, let's center this on the intersection of
the muzzle centerline and the handle centerline.  Otherwise fine.

x460.dat - Minifig Gun Musket
Ditto.

30132.dat - Minifig Gun Revolver
Ditto.

x467.dat - Minifig Gun Rifle
Ditto.  This one especially, as moving the center would aid in not two but
*three* rotation axes.

x155.dat - Minifig Scuba Tank
Crashes LEdit!

3846p43.dat - Minifig Shield Triangular with Black Falcon Pattern
Where I stopped, actually.  :-,  I can resume voting later, right?

...

Further notes without having actually looked at the DAT:

x742.dat - Technic Gear 21 Tooth
Why is this rotated 90 degrees away from the other gears?  Isn't the Z axis
typically used anymore as the default rotation axis of Technic gears?

x743.dat - Technic Gear 35 Tooth
Ditto.

...

Cheers,
- jsproat

Is it still illegal if I copy just the FBI warning?

(...) Note to everyone (repeating myself from just a few minutes ago): the one thing that practically *can't* be changed after a part is released is the orientation and positioning! So it may seem picayune to argue about these things, but it is very (...) (24 years ago, 22-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
