If things work out well, there should be an OSX version with every future release of L3P.


First off, many thanks to Lars for making this tool available for OS X!

L3P has been working very well overall, but I'm having an issue with LGEO parts
substitution, which I'm curious to know if anyone else has seen.  This is with
the 20021209 version of L3P, running under OS X 10.2.6, and both the update 14
and 15 versions of the LGEO library.

The problem is that the generated POV-Ray code is not referencing the LGEO slope
objects for slope bricks (such as lg_3297_slope), so only the 'body' of the
slope brick renders.  By accident, I found with one model that the POV code
attempted to reference the *_slope object for a brick (the 4x4 space radar dish)
that doesn't have one.  This makes me suspect either the l2p_elmt.tab file (some
PC-to-Mac/Unix conversion issue?), or perhaps how L3P is reading it, as the
underlying cause.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Tom

(...) I haven't used the LGEO substitution. I haven't seen comments from anyone else on this list that indicated they use them either. Sorry! (21 years ago, 29-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

It's the good old v1.3 from 20010120, but you get i before the Linux people :-) Since I don't have much experience in the Mac and only limited access, I'll leave the testing to you guys.
