 | | Re: New OpenGL based Lego Editor
|
| (...) I second this request. I'm working on LPub 4 and it will have internationalization capabilities. We're using Qt under Visual Studio as the basis for this development for three reasons: 1. Linguistics support for translations into languages (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
| | | | | Re: New OpenGL based Lego Editor
|
| (...) I agree with Jim and would say that LDraw.org always welcomes talented people. If you are going to write a new editor I suggest to support right from the start the possibility to translate the interface in other languages without the need to (...)

| (...) Bricksmith and LDView both use OpenGL, as far as I can tell. Of course, Bricksmith is only available on the Mac and LDView is a viewer, not an editor, but they are both excellent applications (I use them regularly). They are being actively (...)

|
| Hello Jim, (...) Great! I made nothing for that (I'm not so good at programming!), but a console application is nothing fancy... (...) Sure, you're welcome! Thanks in advance... Philo (19 years ago, 2-Jun-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

| (...) Although I haven't tested it with anything besides the included samples, I can confirm that this builds and works with Mac OS X. Three cheers for portable code! In the source directory, I compiled it with: g++ Isecalc.cpp -arch i386 -arch ppc (...) (19 years ago, 2-Jun-07, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

|
| Dear Jim, Thank-you so much for this service! LSynth was the program I missed the most from Windows, but your version works flawlessly. Now I can get back to work! Thanks again! (19 years ago, 13-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
| | | | | LSynth Service
|
| Hi, all. I've taken the liberty of fiddling around with the LSynth 2 source code a little bit more to create an LSynth Service, a text-processing extension for Mac OS X that lets you run LSynth just about anywhere you can edit text. The service (...) (19 years ago, 10-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad)
| | | | | Re: LSynth on Mac OS X
|
| (...) Well, I can't remember the name of the first guy who started it I think back in 1999. I promptly took it over and he disappeared from the web. Then Matt Gerber pitched in but I haven't seen him in a long time. Here is a blast from the past: (...) (19 years ago, 2-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

He also previewed some upcoming idea that he's been working on including LSynth (...) (19 years ago, 1-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

I expect to be busy the rest of this weekend, so I may not be able to follow up until Monday or so, but I look forward to working with (...)

I'm game to make Mac executable available on my website, where Don and I make lsynthcp executable available for WinXP. (...) (19 years ago, 31-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
| | | | | Re: LSynth on Mac OS X

| (...) Thanks. Happily, I think all these things are already available for Linux or Windows - but of course they are nicer on a Mac. :) Two key Windows-oriented tools, MLCad and LDraw Design Pad, do work in the (URL) CrossOver> demo (more or less): (...)

|
| (...) Oh, OK. I could as well, but I thought I'd check if they wanted to put it on the same site as the original. Any way is fine by me. (...) I had no idea there was once an actual LDraw for the Mac Campaign! I don't think I even knew about LDraw (...) (19 years ago, 31-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

Incidentally, the last few days I've been cleaning up my old files and I ran across the old LDMC website (LDraw for the Mac Campaign). Its been 5 years since I took the site (...)

| | | | | Re: Fun with LDView Fly Through (A Minifig's Eye View)
|
| (...) Thanks for the tip, Tim! The point about LDraw (and POV-Ray) objectives being comprised of surfaces rather than solids is worth keeping in mind, too. After re-rendering the little test scene with maxtracelevel set to 8, I realized that the (...) (19 years ago, 19-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Fun with LDView Fly Through (A Minifig's Eye View)
|
| --snip-- (...) Hi Jim, The second error there is certainly to blame for the opacity. You need to add a line globalsettings maxtracelevel N where N is high enough (probably 8 will do). Partially this is because LDraw parts are constructed of surfaces (...) (19 years ago, 19-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)
