I have just finished making Tile 1 x 2 with Ice Planet Controls Pattern and I need to know what I do with it now. Do I send the file to lugnet.cad.dat.parts for review? Thanks, --Ryan E-mail: ryanjf@ifriendly.com Website: (URL) (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I'm too tired to write a complete list of the subjects discussed now (10 hours flight from NY) but we basically talked about a license for the parts and how the LDraw.org organization will be formed. Leonardo (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) There won't be any more part updates as they were done previously, the basic idea is to be able to run a program that will check for new parts and download them automatically and have the complete.exe package updated at a fixed time interval. (...) (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I refer (of course) to the meeting the Ldraw group had on the 11th Feb not the CAD summit with LD... Any chance of the miniutes being put out? (or is it not at that stage yet?) Alex (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Has this been suggested before: I understand that altering a zero point or rotation orientation will break models. But what if a new part were assigned at that time, and the old number referenced the new number (with appropriate transformation (...) (24 years ago, 12-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Um, me too. It's extremely frustrating to work with some parts in the library due to these inconsistencies -- immediate examples include <part:30079> and several minifig accessories, not to mention the goofy assortment of rotation axes among (...) (24 years ago, 12-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

The replies I've seen posted seem to have taken a turn away from the topic I had wanted to address: to wit, _when_ we are planning to have a new parts update. If I can do anything to assist in making a new update happen, _please_ let me know. As of (...) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Well it renders the same way in l3lab so it's a bug in the part. I think the problem is that the inside surface is missing. This lets us see through to the outside surface of the 2357 brick which occupies the exact same space as the outside (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)

There seems to be an error in 2357.dat (or in LDGLite). It looks like the winding has been swapped for some of the sides, so the wrong surfaces are drawn. This is only visible in some special cases. When you render the example below with LDGLite (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad.dev)

John: (...) I think Lars has modified l3p, so you can included a POV-Ray version of the part as comments in the DAT file. Something like "0 IFPOV/.../0 ELSEPOV/.../0 ENDPOV", but check Lars' latest l3p announcement. Play well, Jacob -- Where's that (...) (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
