  Re: LDraw color conversions
 
(...) Tore, Is this the kind of output you are looking for? (URL) link will probably wrap) That's just some of the info from my Color Tree pages: (URL) me know what you need, or how you need it presented. I'd be glad to help in any way I can. HTH, (...)

  Re: Questions On ldconfig.ldr (Was: colours.txt -> LDraw-org Official Part Updates!)
 
(...) Yes, that's exactly what I'm suggesting. And the database should be text-based, space-delimited, available offline to all softwares that may need the info - and udpated regulary. In other words: in the new, improved ldconfig.ldr! :) /Tore (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Questions On ldconfig.ldr (Was: colours.txt -> LDraw-org Official Part Updates!)
 
(...) A = alpha (transparency) DR, DG, DB, DA = dithered RGB,A. If RGB = D(RGB), then the color is solid. If DA=0, the color is transparent. Otherwise, the color is dithered and/or translucent. (...) Actually, that kind of information should be set (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LDBoxer - Next Step and My Datsville Plans
 
So far, LDBoxer has replaced all bricks and plates that has both top studs and bottom studs/tubes covered by non-transparent parts. Next step is to eliminiate drawing bottom studs/tubes when only top studs are visible, and vice versa. Many models (...) (20 years ago, 15-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Questions On ldconfig.ldr (Was: colours.txt -> LDraw-org Official Part Updates!)
 
(...) Well the spec is changing so these commands will go away. We (the LSC) are working to get the spec for the color definitions (the !COLOR Meta coomand) finalize by the next parts release. (...) LDView currently uses this file and once we (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Questions On ldconfig.ldr (Was: colours.txt -> LDraw-org Official Part Updates!)
 
(...) Oh boy, I've never noticed that one! Must be because of its misleading name and extension. So, what does the A, DR, DG, DB, DA columns stand for? (A is always = 255, so one can wonder what good it does.) It should benifit from some more (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: colours.txt -> LDraw-org Official Part Updates!
 
(...) This is what the ldconfig.ldr file is. Look for it the LDraw base dir. -Orion (20 years ago, 11-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  colours.txt -> LDraw-org Official Part Updates!
 
(...) Sorry, I just can't find it. Could you give me a direct link? Thanks, /Tore (btw, the file colours.txt is very close to what I have in mind, only that what I think of should not be limited to 80 colours, it should be stored in the LDraw (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: MakePart.c (Was: Baseplate generator program)
 
Hi, "Tore Eriksson" <tore.eriksson@mbox3...wipnet.se> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:HywH7z.GLE@lugnet.com... (...) <SNIP> cool I'll give it a try! Thanks a lot, Michael (20 years ago, 6-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  MakePart.c (Was: Baseplate generator program)
 
I knew I had it somewhere... If this code snippet can be of any use, anyone is free to use it. Notes: The main() is just an example on how to call the makepart() function. The groove option does not work. There really should be an outputfilename (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Baseplate generator program
 
Lester, I would like to include that into MLCad. Adding as a meta command for MLCad I could support this. All I would need is some sort of library I can use. Best way would be a dll, which generates that - or if you do not mind already the source (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Color Defining Systems Summary?
 
(...) The LSC is almost done with the !COLOR meta-statement that should satisfy your need once L3P and MLCad support it. You can read the current draft here: (URL) (20 years ago, 4-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Color Defining Systems Summary?
 
I think that there are a number of different systems for defining new or custom colors in the large number of LCad programs, right? Most of them are considerate towards original LDraw and other tools that are not supporting that system. But I think (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Baseplate generator program
 
(...) I think that it's a good idea. There is a built-in part genereator in SimLego too, but the parts it generates are far from today's LCad standards, and the SimLego source code is forever lost. A third way to go would be to write an LDraw Script (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Baseplate generator program
 
(...) Wow, I can't speak for everyone, but I'd love to get my hands on that. Could be a real good program, simple way to generate the kind of baseplates you need. You never know, you could turn that little program into a real nice little parts (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ideas for next MOTM contest
 
(...) (I hope you see this reply. Since it no longer has anything to do with ldraw.org, I moved it to the general dev group.) I'm guessing you mean moving out the near clip plane. This can indeed help a whole lot. I actually set the near and far (...) (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Ideas for next MOTM contest
 
(...) Oh, whoops. I had forgotten that you'd implemented the mirroring. My bad. --Travis (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Baseplate generator program
 
I am developing a building in MLCAD (which I have built). I intend to including an interior and may use cut (Gasp!!) baseplates for floors. Since the parts library did not include non-standard baseplates (like 22x12) I wrote a small program that (...) (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: LDraw Part Request - Goblet Fill
 
(...) Whipped up a simple "filler" piece for the goblet. Fills the goblet to 3/4's full. Works best as a solid color in a translucent goblet. Here's a pic, the part will be available via my Brickshelf folder when it passes moderation. The goblet on (...) (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
