  Re: LCD - LEGO Connection Database - Proposal
 
I think that the list of connectors/connections needs to be expanded from what is shown here. My specific concern after reading the draft is that it does not seem to cover the possibility of placing a mini-fig headgear piece on a 1x1 round brick. A (...)

(...) Is it restricted in applicability to just LDraw parts? (that is, if there were a competing parts format, could the idea be applicable? Could the database (perhaps with coordinate transformation) itself? If it's not restricted (and I think it's (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

First of all, I think think this thread should be in the top stories section! Secondly,I want it asap! I would pay money for an editor with this implementation in fact I think it would be advantages if the lego group itself implements this or (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LCD - LEGO Connection Database - Proposal
 
A note worthy of some serious consideration, I got a priavte email from Jude Beaudin, who suggested the name might infringe on LEGO's interests. He suggested the project be renamed to 'LDraw Connection Database' instead, preserving the acronym and (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: *** LDView Version 1.9.1 Released ***
 
(...) Hmm. I only copied that actual .lib files into lib and lib_debug, not any of the supporting files such as vc60.idb. I didn't have any problem simply copying them all in after building libpng (which also builds zlib in the process). (...) Well, (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: LCD - LEGO Connection Database - Proposal
 
(...) Yup! :-) (...) Never thought of it that way. In that case, it would go beyond the primary goal of making parts connectable in the editing of a model file. (...) For now, discuss here. (...) You are right. I fixed the error. (...) A couple of (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LCD - LEGO Connection Database - Proposal
 
(...) WOW! This is VERY significant work. Building this knowledge into modeling tools would be awesome. People in the past have hinted at ways of doing this and at the vast and powerful new ways of analysing things that would result. I personally am (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hi Franklin, (...) I may have this one in some (un)finished state at home. I'll post it to cad.dat.parts tonight after work. If it's in good enough shape, I'll send it to the parts tracker too. (...) I can't recall if I found the number for it. (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: *** LDView Version 1.9.1 Released ***
 
(...) A few notes on compiling it from the source: I had to copy the libpng debug files *after* the zlib debug files to get it to link because the zlib files overwrote vc60.something that it seemed to need. Where did you get your wglext.h and (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)

Got a mockup already done - just wondered if anyone had done the whole thing yet. Might give it a try as far as the 'teeth' goes, but not sure am up to doing the 'open top' part of it yet.
