  OMR Model Creation/Submission Rules
 
We should develop rules for official model creating and submitting to the OMR. First off, we can't expect all submissions to follow our header/filename system. The model editors will have to make sure each file follows those rules. Here are my (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Though convenient for us, inconvenient for them. As I noted it could discourage immediate submissions, which would help the Repository. But on the other hand it would be good for people to note their own errors - especially for us, so we don't (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: OMR Model Creation/Submission Rules
 
(...) Correct. (...) Good point. I like the readiness system. Should we have it relative to the number of pieces, so you divide the number of parts by the number of parts in the model to get the percentage? Also, you could multiply it by a certain (...)

(...) I don't see the point of inlineing any submodels unless they aren't official submodels. If the instructions use a submodel, why inline it?

  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
 
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)

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
 
(...) 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 (...)

what about for example the ghost??? do we put in a minifig without the ghost shawl??? what about the skelleton? do we put in just the skull? (25 years ago, 24-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

  Re: OMR Model Creation/Submission Rules
 
I think you guys are missing the point of Tom's excellent suggestion. Notice the "0" in front of the 2916 line. That means he's just including commentary on where the part will go if and when it becomes official. It makes it much easier to add it in (...)
