  Re: OMR Model Creation/Submission Rules
 
(...) No, the entire minifig cannot be omitted. It is part of the set, and if the decorated element does not exist, the author is to use the plain version of that file and attach a comment in the errors.dat file or in the model itself. -Tim Courtney (...)

i think that if the torso for a minifig or an other important part is not available then the whole minifig and all accessories can be omitted. (25 years ago, 20-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: OMR Model Creation/Submission Rules
 
Bram, I think the reason we would have a submodel for that submodel is because it is an official submodel. We would inline it because it is stationary; it can't be moved from where it is. Take a look at a scan of the instructions, it might help to (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: OMR Model Creation/Submission Rules
 
(...) The point is if the submodel does not contain *any* moving parts, why make it a seperate model? Though we do have the available space filename-wise, it does seem kinda silly. But still, either way I guess is about the same thing. -Tim Courtney (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: OMR Model Creation/Submission Rules
