  Camera Positioning
 
Maybe someone can point me in the right direction... I have an object with a known bounding box, how do I calculate the position of the camera so that the whole object is shown on a screen of known dimentions? In other words, how to I determine the (...) (21 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Color problem- is this a bug in L3P?
 
(...) L3P has a bug with part colors when there is a single part in a sub-file. In this case, you need to ask yourself why you have this case. It seems overkill to have side.ldr with just one part in it. None the less, it is a bug in L3P. (...) LPub (...) (21 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Lack of Color in Renderings
 
(...) Henry - L3P (or POV, I'm not sure) has a problem with color when converting LDraw files that contain single parts. To get around this, you can select the -c (Color) switch in L3PAO, and choose among the original 16 LDraw colors. You can also (...) (21 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad)
 
  Color problem- is this a bug in L3P?  [DAT]
 
The attached .mpd file is showing a weird problem with colors when run through L3P and rendered in POV-Ray. There is a subfile that contains a single part. In there, the part's color is set to trans-red (Color36). The parent file sets it to black (...) (21 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Lack of Color in Renderings
 
All, I recently tried rendering a tan (LDraw #382) plate using MLCAD and L3PAO. As this shows: (URL) color! I have also tried this and other pieces in yellow and dark red (# 320). I should also note that I rendered things in August and everything (...) (21 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Full orthographic town view
 
(...) The first run with -ca1 should give an (almost) orthographic look. If you want a 100% orthographic view you should put the keyword "orthographic" into the POV file. But why would you want the first run then? To place the camera? /Lars (22 years ago, 21-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Full orthographic town view
 
Hi Eduardo, This can easily be done with LPub, a program that takes LDR/DAT/MPD files as inputs, and creates POV-Ray images easily. Most people use LPub to create building instructions, but LPub can also be used for single images. You can control (...) (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Full orthographic town view
 
I started playing with that command but I'm not great with Pov-ray so can some tell me how to make a orthographic view of my town? I don't have the town done yet but i whould like to have one done resolutions I whould like to have my town in are 800 (...) (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Observatory
 
(...) Thanks! (...) giving (...) For now, no. I was planning on that this version, but it is too difficult. I will give it some thought though. The total revision will be a surprise I think for all, but mainly I am adding more detail like computer (...) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Observatory
 
(...) That's terrific! What a great idea. In your revised version, do you plan on adding doors to the dome, and giving the telescope a greater range in declination? Jeff J (22 years ago, 13-Mar-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.models, lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.space)
