(...) I'd say it wouldn't *have* to return the dependent files. LDView can turn around, and make an additional request. (...) Well, the server can support multiple files per request, and client programs can use it as well as they can. (...) Use MPD (...) (18 years ago, 17-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) That starts getting more difficult for a few reasons. First of all, the tracker would have to return all the dependent files on the tracker in addition to the requested files. Many of these files could well be already present on the end-user's (...) (18 years ago, 17-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Shouldn't be a problem at all. If it's anything significant, I'll just start mirroring the DAT files to media.peeron.com, and have you use that. Then it certainly wouldn't be an issue. (...) Sounds reasonable. Perhaps it might be more (...) (18 years ago, 17-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I can definitely see where you're coming from, and there's certainly a danger that having a viewer transparently support unofficial parts will encourage their use without being included inside the MPD file.

At some feature-complete point many programmers prefer to switch to a newer thus more exiting development rather than cherrish and grow the baby. However, (...)
