Hello, Are there any software developers out there who would be interested in collaborating on a project with me to design, develop and produce software for CGI LEGO animation? I'm thinking something along the lines of an MLCad GUI, coupled with (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-04, to lugnet.animation, lugnet.cad.ray)

Hi, I've just been getting familiar will LCad & POV-Ray the past few days and things have been moving along fine but recently I've run into a problem with a certain model/piece. In using the LGEO library's I get a lot of undeclared identifier's when (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Bingo! There's my problem: not enought constraints. I have been using very few constraints to make my wires, because I thought they turned out better that way - boy was I wrong! Thanks a million for the tip! David J. Perdue (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) Larry is right. The cross sections are not overlapping as they are supposed to. This can happen if the wire is bent too hard, or the constraints are too far apart. LPub uses a large fixed size array when synthesizing between any two (...) (21 years ago, 7-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) I'm no expert in maga-pov or lpub, but if everything else looks ok, I'd just erase these white spots with Photoshop or whatever picture editing software you use. Would this be more work than remodeling the cables, or less? hth Allister (21 years ago, 6-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)
