  Re: Piece Number?

  Re: LDR - New LDraw File Extension
 
(...) In this case, (since we are ridding the wave of change), I would sugest, using .mpl (Multipart Ldraw) instead of .mpd (Multipart Dat) I think it makes reasonable sence.

  Piece Number?
 
Hi all, I was wondering if there is a part number associated with that large phone-handset piece that's been showing up in the UCS sets. There are two in the UCS tie fighter, I believe, and at least two in the Star Wars RBR. They are clearly seen in (...) (23 years ago, 5-Dec-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Color question
 
Still on the 200101 update: I noticed that 3297P90 (slope with classic space pattern) had some polys with color 18. Isn't it an illegal color code or did I miss a discussion and now it's valid ? The FAQ doesn't say anything about being able to use (...) (23 years ago, 4-Dec-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
