(...) You should at least try the "-l3" before you recompile. I'm sort of interested in what you get for render times with both parsers. I only have somewhat underpowered PCs to work with, so I'm curious how they compare in the "real world". Don (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I like that idea. If the default view is what you said (the [0.707104 ...] matrix), then a projection matrix of 1.4142,0,0,0,1.2196,...171,1.2247 in front of it would give the same effect as the original LDRAW default matrix. I've wanted to pull out (...) (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
