  My other hobby
 
Years ago, when I had all the time in the world, I busied myself by making chainmail. Lots and lots of it. I've made hauberks, chausses, byrnies, vests, coifs, mantles, gloves, and other stuff, like some crazy knit-happy grandmother. The constraints (...)

  Re: New Animation!
 
Sure! Since I don't... currently know how to upload stuff I'll just give you the whole 'Spline' bit. Here it is: #declare Spline1 = spline { natural_spline -0.20, <0,50,1000>, // control point 0.00, <0,50,800>, // starting point 0.20, (...)

  New Animation!
 
Hello, all. I have just discovered POV-Ray's wonderful Spline feature. I was mulling over how to create fluid movements with exponential curves. I did achieve some good results, but the animations are rather small and simple. It then occurred to me (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.animation)

  Re: POVRAY questions
 
(...) Ouch!! You using the same .POV file? If so why is that occuring? Could it be becuase of the code you use for radiosity? As the code was developed for 3.5. -AHui A&M LWorks (URL) (20 years ago, 2-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

I have my doubts; look at this: (URL) is done with PR 3.6. There are loads of artifacts in the round grey Technic parts. Compare it with this: (URL) in PR 3.5. Jeroen "Eduardo Vazquez Harte" <eduvazhar@telefonica.net> wrote in message (...) (20 years ago, 1-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  POVRAY questions
 
What you all think of POV-RAY 3.6? Should we update to 3.6 or keep with 3.5 or 3.1g? I use 3.5 for windows but i prefer the 3.5 for cygwin but without cygwin. What if we just work with 3.1g , 3.5 and 3.6 without having to be forced to use the latest (...) (20 years ago, 30-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.ray)

  Re: Brick 2 x 2 with Wheels and Dually Wheels

  Re: Brick 2 x 2 with Wheels and Dually Wheels
 
(...) My advise is: Don't try this at home! Those tap or clips broke very easily even when they were new, and I guess time hasn't made then less fragile... Then we had to fix them with a 3022 Brick 2x2 or a broken 650 Nylon Coupling (...) That was a (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Brick 2 x 2 with Wheels and Dually Wheels
 
Niels - Looks nice! On some of my older 2x2 wheel bricks there is a gap which allows the axle to be removed and/or snapped into the brick. On the newer bricks the metal axle cannot be removed (looks similar to your ldraw part). I'll see if I can (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

Well, I just gave it a try, and here are the results: (2 URLs) Since Peeron lists the dually (or double) tyre as partnumber 7b, I used 7b.dat for this tyre. I don't know the partnumber for the dually wheel, I used 20b.dat for now. These yet (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: the train is growing

  Re: the train is growing
 
Wow! Nice render! Sometimes I like rendering really massive pictures just for the fun of it. Good idea for the Santa Fe! And 20,000 lines... I've got files in excess of 100,000 lines on my PC. Anyways, good job. (20 years ago, 2-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

Hi, my train project is going on and the train is growing as long as my computer doesn't give me an error. I rendered the actual picture in 6400x1200 but reduced the size on brickshelf to 3200x600.

  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)
 
  a simple idea for creating the bump effects on patterned slopes
 
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 (...)
