(...) You are correct on both points. The primary value of the tool at this point is that it removes the tedium of defining polygons to connect vertices. It's a start! (...) Your edge-detection suggestion is certainly the ideal, but would get a bit (...) (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Move L3P.exe to a different directory, for instance C:\Pov, and change the path reference in the last line of L3P.bat accordingly. This way you can still use way the DOS-window openened with the shortcut for L3P for running Ldraw.exe also. (...) (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to this -- I've been too busy to really dig into it. Overall, I think this is a decent *redistribution* license. It does not address: 1. The agreement(s) between the contributors and ldraw.org. 2. The fact (...) (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Thanks for pointing this out. I can't check into this right now -- I'm wondering if there's some obscure reason behind this (besides me not being careful) -- but I will delve into the matter ASAP. Steve (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

|

Hey, does anybody out there know the origin of the "Oblique", "UpsideDown", and "Natural" viewing matrices in LDRAW.INI. I'm not sure whether these came from LDAO, LDLITE, or perhaps even LDRAW? Wherever they came from, they don't seem to be pure (...) (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I have one more note about the descriptions: 2494P01 and 4448P01 are called "Glass for Window ..." while 2494 and 4448 are called "Window Glass ...", so they don't sort correctly. Leonardo (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
