  Re: Rubber Colors Needed (Was: Color Definition for Dull Silver)
 
(...) I seem to have a few of these white (sort of a chalky gray-white, in my collection) tires from the early 70's, but I have no idea which of my early sets included them. I always figured that the white color was simply a sign of degraded rubber. (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)

OR... We could pick up the old 0 TEXTURE meta-command? No need for new volour numbers? (URL) for replying to myself) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Color Definition for Dull Silver
 
(...) It's needed for backwards compability. Using an old/not updated renderer shouldn't make the rendering look awkward. But using a newer renderer should make it better. So is the case with grey rubber, black rubber, and electric conductor. When (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Rubber Colors Needed (Was: Color Definition for Dull Silver)
 
(...) I saw that link at Brickshelf, too, and was very surprised. Never heard of that those tyres came in white. Samsonite maybe? I'm tempted to buy a couple just to satisfy my curiousity. Rubber belts have come in many colours, (URL) we need many (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) **Warning: Obvious Political Joke** Well, duh. Tipper is the former would-be First Lady. **End of Obvious Political Joke** Also, I'm a tipper if the service is good. Dave! Wouldn't you like to be a tipper, too? (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Color Definition for Dull Silver
 
(...) On that note, let me toss in my $2. I agree with Cary and Steve that dithering should go. Who needs it? The renderer should be able to convert from true color to dithered colors if the display is underpowered. If you must have it for some (...)

  Re: Part Renames
 
(...) I believe this is a tipper: (URL) It's a container that is designed to tip over to unload. (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Part Renames
 
(...) What's a tipper? Someone clue me in please. I feel that if I'm confused as to what a tipper is supposed to be, then others may also be just as confused (or maybe I'm delusional ;-) ) -Orion (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Color Definition for Dull Silver
 
(...) A quick clarification on this. My post above was poorly worded in that it implies that this number definition was already chisled in to stone (thanks for pointing this out Steve). My intention with this pat was to open the idea up to (...) (21 years ago, 23-Sep-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Part Renames
 
Whatever the renames are, if we could make sure the former name is in the keywords, so that it's still searchable?

  Part Renames
 
A flood of BFC'd part has been submitted to the PT (Thanks John) and I like to take an opportunity to discuss the renames of some of the parts to more intuitive names: 30031 Space Handlebars to Bar Handlebars or just Handlebars with a 0 CATEGORY Bar (...)

[Not really a .cad.ray question, but it's a gray area, so I'm leaving the cross-post] (...)
