  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) :-) (...) day about adding support for Buffer Exchange and Rotation Steps, etc. Maybe if LPub supported it, LDLite wouldn't have to make those changes. -Tim (21 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) Paul, Because L3P doesn't know anything about buffer exchange or rotation steps, LPub creates a DAT for each step and handles all the rotation and stuff. Is there mechanism in LDLite that will let LPub interact with LDLite through interprocess (...) (21 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) This may be a dumb question, but what exactly is the benefit of LDLite? From what I have seen (and this is probably wrong) LDLite simply allows you to look at a model in 3D space, much like the 3D view in MLCad. What am I missing? Jake --- (...) (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) Better rendering control. While I use MLCad for model capture and review, I use LDLite as a rendering tool for final instruction images, as it is much more flexible and gives me fine grained control over more things. YMMV. (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) The reference to LDLite is really a generic reference to renderers other than POV-Ray. I've not done a lot of homework on LDLite, but if it can be an alternative renderer to POV-Ray it has a few advantages including rendering speed (as it is (...)

  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) Oh, I should also note that it's embeddable in batch files, since it has a command line interface. When you have hundreds or thousands of images to render across 30-40 submodels, that's very very important. (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) But is this only comparing MLCad to LDLite? While I would agree that the batch processing abilities seem cool, the quality just doesn't seem to compare if you also factor in MegaPOV to the mix. That being said... am I missing something? There (...) (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) It's good enough for what I use it for, and it doesn't require POV, and it's way way way way faster. I'd never tie up my PC for two days rendering, that's just unacceptable. (...) Maybe. Read the help on the command line options to se what (...) (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) Looking into other renderers was just a thought of mine. Your requests for pause controls is indicitive of the cost of high quality rendering. For those who do not want to pay that price they have to lay out BIs by hand. I don't have a desire (...) (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) I missed this bit before. I thought Jake was asking about why I didn't use MLCad for rendering. (...) I agree with this approach, I don't think you should write your own renderer, we don't need YARenderer at this point. Just link them in as (...) (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) If you want an example of the quality you can get with this technique, take a peek at the Family Car instructions on this page. (URL) almost positive it was done with the edge thickening and scaling method described by Larry. Don (21 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: LPub and Lsynth page for tracking enhancement requests and bug fixes
 
(...) My solution to the above is to give you explicit control over construction image render window size and PLI render window size. You can set these sizes small for test runs. Is this acceptable? It will be available in the next LPub release. (...) (20 years ago, 4-Oct-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
