Hi all, I was wondering are those parts in the <LDRAW>\parts\s dir official parts? Because there are some very strange parts there. Why not add some sort of triangle and rectangle facing information, so all polygrams can be assigned clockwise (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I think where I want to go with it, is to keep things simple and limited. At least for now. Embedded POV-Ray code should not make references to L3P-defined objects or definitions. It should stick strictly with primitive operations. Maybe later (...) (23 years ago, 5-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) This is done sometimes. It certainly could be replaced with equivalent raw code. I'm not sure which version would be faster. Once the 48\1-4ring9 file is loaded by a renderer, reusing the file shouldn't be a big time hit. Steve (23 years ago, 4-Mar-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)
