  Re: View matrix used for default 3D view expressed in LDLite terms
 
(...) Yes, that's it. Or so close as not to make a difference. THANK YOU!!!! This may actually be a candidate for the MLCad helps unless I'm the only person who ever wanted to render at the same rotation MLCad uses. (23 years ago, 22-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: View matrix used for default 3D view expressed in LDLite terms
 
(...) Yeah, you're right, it looks more like a 45 degree turn followed by about a 23 degree tilt. Try this: -A0.707104,0,0.70710...1,0.650895 (...) (23 years ago, 22-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: View matrix used for default 3D view expressed in LDLite terms
 
(...) If it's just differently rounded then that's not it. (the one Don gave wasn't it either I don't think, the initial rotation should be 45 degrees rather than 60, I think... ) If I could get MLCad to tell me what matrix it was using for a (...) (23 years ago, 22-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: View matrix used for default 3D view expressed in LDLite terms
 
(...) We had a discussion about the "natural" and "oblique" matrices about a year ago where it turned out the "natural" matrix did some rather UN-natural shearing. (URL) mlcad is using this matrix: 0.5,0,0.866025,0.433...5,0.433013 Which is a 60 (...) (23 years ago, 22-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

If you look into LDraw.ini, you'll find the post: Natural=0.625,0,1.07...1.25,0,2.5 quite similar to the one you asked about (I call it Larry here): Larry=0.63,0.00,1.08...,0.00,2.50 They're just differently rounded. /Tore (Tip of today: You may add (...)

  View matrix used for default 3D view expressed in LDLite terms
 
Does anyone know the values for the default 3D view that MLCad uses expressed similar to -A0.63,0.00,1.08,0.5...,0.00,2.50 (this is the parm string to LDLite that gives you "Natural" if you selected it from the LDLite view selection pulldown) It's (...)

  Re: MPD files showing mixed up
 
Hi Jeroen, MLCad does currently not support including mpd's into other files! The result when doing it are uncontrolled. Alternativly you can extract all the files from the mpd and import them into another project. Regards, Michael (23 years ago, 13-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  MPD files showing mixed up
 
Hi, I searched the newsgroup but didn't find this, so I hope I on't ask something for the 1000th time: I created a MPD-model (sik.mpd). Everything OK with that, converting to POV goes well so no problems there. But when I place the file ("add part" (...) (23 years ago, 11-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: MLCad and the LDraw package
 
Ryan, In your case there is no need for the base package. In normal cases it's required in order to have all the parts of the base package and the updates. Therefor MLCad checks the following in order to validate a "base path". Unless you fullfill (...) (23 years ago, 7-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  MLCad and the LDraw package
 
Hi, Michael, I have a question. Why is it that MLCad requires the LDraw/LEdit package to be installed in order to run? I'm curious, because I have made a K'nex parts library available on my website and it would be nice if someone who wasn't into (...) (23 years ago, 6-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  Missing wheels?
 
I'm looking for the like in 8218, the small technic wheels, but they don't seem to exist in MLCAD. Not in Lugnet part ref either for that matter... It's 2994 on this page: (URL) it simply not exist, or have I just been looking in the wrong places? (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: MLSAVE V1.00
 
(...) Correction: When you press "Preview" on the Windows screensaver control panel, moving the mouse doesn't stop the screensaver. But, when the screensaver comes up on its own later, moving the mouse does cancel it. Jason J Railton (23 years ago, 1-Oct-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
 
  Re: MLSAVE V1.00
 
Michael - Great program. I love it, and I have it on my PC at work now. (...) I found this too. It's a little bit unexpected, particularly if someone else here needs my PC. (...) That would be great.

  Re: Question on veiwing DAT files in MLcad
 
Actually, there's an easier way. When you see a message with the keyword [DAT] in the header, simply right-click on that darker text [DAT], and if you're using Internet Explorer you should automatically be asked where on your harddisk you want to (...)

  Re: Question on veiwing DAT files in MLcad
 
(...) It's really easy: just copy all the text of the file, paste it into a text editor (notepad) and save it with a .dat extension. You can then open it in MLCad Cheers, --Ryan (23 years ago, 22-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.mlcad)
