  Re: 3D Myst III viewer of a castle
 
(...) I actually had to do something similar in LDView in order to get models to view properly using OpenGL (although I used a 180 degree rotation about Z followed by one about Y). I wonder if any of the other programmers out there had similar (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D Myst III viewer of a castle
 
(...) Here is the new simplified camera: camera { spherical location <-320,-239,0> // position look_at <-320,-239,1> // view scale <0,0,-1> // flip it rightside up } I'm not sure why the flip works, or why it is needed. I think it is because or (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D Myst III viewer of a castle
 
(...) Yes, as I recently suggested here in another thread: (URL) I think a comand line option of -ci<filename> to include a premade POV camera file might also benefit that technique." This would make all sorts of things possible, including things we (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: 3D Myst III viewer of a castle
 
(...) <snip> (...) Actually it would be cool to place the camera with L3P. I believe h_angle and v_angle default to 180, and 360, so they are probably not needed. I think you can avoid the translation with location/look_at. Not sure about the Sky (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad)

  Re: 3D Myst III viewer of a castle
 
Wow, that's pretty cool! 2 questions Is there any way of getting rid of that grey color when the image first loads up? That's kind of ugly. Also, I bet you've been asked this before, but where can I find this viewer and instructions on how to use (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad, lugnet.cad)

  Re: 1 question on MLCAD does it have a part limit like Ldraw?
 
(...) Gatehouse. You could break it up, but it doesn't really work for a full-scale gatehouse for a castle. The walls are 16 dots thick and filled with filler brick (various colors).

Doyle Nelson wrote in message ... (...) I don'y know if MLCAD will do 12000 pieces, but you'd probably want to break it down if at all possible.

  Re: 1 question on MLCAD does it have a part limit like Ldraw?
 
(...) That would be Great. I figured MLCad was only limited to your sytems specs. I have a Very powerful system that the Company provided me with.:-) Though it would be nice to know if anyone reached 12,000 or more? (23 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

  1 question on MLCAD does it have a part limit like Ldraw?
 
Hello, You are all aware that LDraw has that 1000 part limit and then must be sub-constructed. What my question is, does MLCad have the same limit or is it unlimited? My projects (Castle) do not really have or a conducive for Sub-models in Quantity. (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
