  New LDConfig.ldr color file
 
Hi folks, working on and off for almost a year with Scott Wardlaw, Alex Taylor and with the help from Joshua Delahunty we put together a new LDConfig file which hopefully fills in where the old version failed: (URL) file has the following (...)

(...) Partly correct. I used an open source version of pascal to compile this program. Since it's not win specific, it's probably not as optimized to the win platform as Delphi is. -Orion (15 years ago, 20-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) This is for Mac OS and windows OS at the same time. I think LDDP is only for WinOS. (15 years ago, 18-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I wonder why this windows execute is soooo large (12,6 MB!) and LDDP is only 1,9 MB?. cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 17-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) That's only true if the polygons are the same color. If they're different colors, it's an error. I've seen official parts with overlapping polygons that are different colors. --Travis (15 years ago, 16-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: L3P -check Messages and hold votes
 
(...) I'll look into this. The !LICENCE check is case sensitive so unless you have exactly what's in the spec, it will complain. (...) The Lib Spec says that 3 decimal places is enough in most cases (4 for scalable primitives). This would be a (...) (15 years ago, 16-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Try out LDraw Validator: (URL) zip file contains both a Windows and OS X binary. I'll post the source once the program is complete. What it checks: - Compliance with header spec (mostly, see below) - Compliance with !CATEGORY and !KEYWORDS (...) (15 years ago, 15-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: L3P -check Messages and hold votes
 
(...) I suggest to use LDDP or Datheader instead. Both of them include the correct code to check for non-coplanar quads and are more convenient to use. Planarcheck should only be used by parts authors to automatically split non-flat quads. (...) (...) (15 years ago, 12-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) I'm half done with a validation program that I've whipped up from existing LDDP code. Stay tuned. -Orion (15 years ago, 12-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: L3P -check Messages and hold votes
 
(...) IMHO the page is quiet useful giving you a guideline when to hold a part and when not. You cannot expect a reviewer flicking through several pages to find out if the error he has spotted is reason enough to hold the part. To kickstart I'm (...)

  LDraw.org's position on web links to an external site
 
The LDraw Steering Committee (SteerCo) has elaborated a policy on what kind of links to external websites should be listed on LDraw.org. LDraw.org is a web site dedicated to virtual building with LEGO bricks, not LEGO in general. We focus on the (...) (15 years ago, 6-Jul-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
