 | | Brick 2 x 2 with Wheels and Dually Wheels

Being a lego seventies town fan, I build lots of vehicles using 3137c01 Brick 2 x 2 with Wheels (Complete Assembly Shortcut) and 3137c02Brick 2 x 2 with Dually Wheels. The latter is not available for LDraw, yet, so I thoughd I'd give it a try. I (...) (20 years ago, 30-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

|

how does this sound?: due to the fact that most patterned slopes arent in lgeo, maybe a pov code within the patterned parts to create the bump effect when exporting into povray. does this sound good? im guessing a good example would be using color (...) (20 years ago, 30-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) well my first idea was to create a plane in Cinema4d for a boat wake... actually heres all my ideas 1. 3d boat wake via c4d *downside = millions upon millions of pollies* 2. A simple image like the classic nautica box front wakes *Downside = (...) (20 years ago, 29-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

I have been working with "while" loops to simulate this. I need to do some (...) (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

(...) Very impressive! Can you do it all with Pov-Ray? ;) (...) Yep - it's too shiny. Turn down the reflectiveness and it'll be perfect. Maybe a little motion blur would be cool too. I know you can do that with MegaPOV (the unofficial patched (...) (20 years ago, 28-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

I have no real chance to fix the viewangle... hmm maybe (...) (20 years ago, 13-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

(...) Yes. This might sound a bit controversial, because a) Wax is new and unknown and b) because it is really more of a video composer than a 3D program. But my guess is that it will allow you to burn through the first stages in computer animation (...) (20 years ago, 13-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

So why does my monitor come in at about 1.7 on the first chart, and 2.4 on the second? I'll accept that the second makes it far easier to find the best match, but I won't accept that my estimate is off by 0.7 on the first chart. There's absolutely (...)

(...) Basically, the problem you're seeing is that Windows does no gamma correction, and your two machines have different monitor gammas. (see (URL) for an explanation) To fix this, in theory, you basically have to calculate your current monitor's (...) (20 years ago, 12-May-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
