  Need info help
 
Am working on modeling the Round Shield from the LEGOLAND Castle series. However, since I do not actually own such a piece, I don't know how big it actually is. It looks bigger than a 2x2 round, but I need some more info. Can anyone help? Mark C. (23 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  RFC: New game Legator
 
Hi, I baught LEGO Creator some time ago and liked it, mostly. I was surprised by the comfort, speed and fun of building. It was very similar to playing real LEGO. But it had a few major problems, namely: * Cannot tilt bricks * Small array of brick (...) (23 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.games, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New Construction Toy In LDraw Format!
 
(...) Nope, sorry. The zip file downloads now, but it's corrupt. Did you forget to upload it in binary mode? The first image of the rubberband also still doesn't work. (23 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

How do you get the .PGM format? I have converted .DEM to .BMP before. Is it much different? Mike PS - Do you have any screenshots? I noticed there weren't any on your website. (...) (23 years ago, 12-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: New Construction Toy In LDraw Format!
 
(...) I believe I fixed the bugs. The image was desigated as a local file, and the zip file was incorrectly titled. And for anyone interested, the .dat file for the rubber-band gun can be found here: (URL) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

Now it appears that not only the link is broken but also the zip file. It is missing a few bits and PKUnzip will not process it. Joseph (...) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) Blasphemer! Blasphemer! That's not LEGO! Just kidding. :-) Actually, this is really cool. I've been thinking for a couple of weeks of asking if anyone had made K'Nex pieces for LDraw. I was wanting to draw up some ideas to share with my cousin (...) (23 years ago, 11-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
 
  New Construction Toy In LDraw Format!
 
K'nex is now available in .dat-file format! Over the past couple of months, I have built a library consisting of 17 parts and 8 primitives with which you can make virtual models of K'nex constructions. And of course it is fully renderable using L3P (...) (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

  Re: Postscript converter
 
Don: (...) There is a quite useful algorithm in my big computer graphics book. It is from 1991 (or before) and I think the title simply is "Computer Graphics". The algorithm is called "space-partitioning tree" or something like that. Jacob (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: Strange rendering
 
Ah, simple answer: The last line of the 6558.dat file does not end in a carriage return. Simple add a return at the end of the file and it should display correctly. I'll log the bug. There's quite a few lines of the parser dedicated to handling this (...) (23 years ago, 10-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad)
