(...) Would assume that once Todd gets around to it the POV snippet for each color will be posted. Maybe if you Email him and ask nice he might speed up the process. -Orion (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

Hi in lugnet.cad no one answers. so i try to get an answer here. I've got a short question. Are those lego-color-textures from (URL) as PovRay Textures or as a list of values (RGB, ...)? BTW. The colors are looking very well =). Andreas (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)

I've posted 2 include file to my website: (URL) is for primitive substituion of axlehole and connect primitives, the other is just a separate file for the L3P colors. Let me know if these are of any use or of any suggestions you have. -Orion (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
