 | | Light trans blue in MLCAD comes out as trans dark-blue in POV-RAY —Brad Hamilton
|
| | | When I use light trans-blue parts in MLCAD, they become dark trans-blue in POV-RAY. I can use another blue color, but its not quite right. I've seen other people complain about this, saying is a bug in L3P or something (which I'm using to convert (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| | | | | | | (...) Right group, imo. Which color are you using for the trans-light blue windows? IIRC, L3P recognizes color 43 (Trans-lt-cyan) as the color of lightly tinted LEGO windows. Maybe color 41 (Trans-lt-blue) should be interpreted the same way...Lars? (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)

If I have to keep manually including it, that would be kind of annoying. I guess I could (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
