  Re: L3PLiTE?
 
(...) I have done something like that for LeoCAD, it removes the studs above and below the bricks and plates for the rendering. I haven't added this option for the POV-Ray export but that's something that I can do if you want. Leonardo (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) colour < 47) ), interior can be skipped. Of course you mean above the lower edge relative to the parts current orientation. That would require taking the transformation matrix into account. -Chuck (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)  
 
  Re: L3PLiTE?
 
(...) For basic bricks, slopes, plates and tiles, one could simply remove the studs and then make the simplified part as the bounding box of what remains. This could probably be automated. If one want more details, the studs could be added again (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Problem with primitives?
 
I've been screwing around with some part authoring, and I give a big Thank You to Lars Hassing for L3Lab and L3P, both of which have made proofing much easier than rendering and rerendering and rererendering in LDraw. However, I notice that on one (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  L3PLiTE?
 
How about making a library of very simplified standard pieces and replace only those standard bricks, plates, and tiles that are not clear and have no studs or bottom visible? I know there are some difficulties yet to be overcome, but I think this (...) (25 years ago, 26-Mar-00, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.cad.dev)
