  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
(...) Philo! Awesome tool, can hardly wait to check it out. I've been waiting for a long, long time for such a prog. w. (17 years ago, 8-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
(...) For unproject MLCad does the job. Symply select everything and set the appropriate matrix row at 0. This is perfect for triangle, quads... If you have primitives you have to later automatically fix the "all zero matrix row" using LDDP. The (...) (17 years ago, 8-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
(...) This is great! Like Tim, I'd been thinking about writing a tool like this for a long time. Thank you very much for making this available. Steve (17 years ago, 8-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
(...) It's a direct parallel projection. I think it's the best since the photo (with a long focal lens) or a scan has the same projection. Philo (17 years ago, 8-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
(...) I was curious if it was a direct projection or an area preserving one. A nice variant might be to write an area preserving variant although that would get quite complex. Tim (17 years ago, 8-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
(...) It should. One interesting aspect is that while photo/scan distorts the pattern, flattening the shape to put it in quad2dat does the same distortion so they compensate each other! Philo (17 years ago, 8-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
(...) Wow. Awesome. I've been meaning to write something like this for ages so I'm very happy. Would it work on minifig faces too? Tim (17 years ago, 7-May-08, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.vikings, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Re: New Ldraw parts authors tool: Projector
 
Very nice. I don't author parts, so I won't be trying it out. However, I looked at your tutorial, and I have two suggestions: Add "Un-Project", where it takes a projected shape and flattens it automatically on an axis specified by the user (X, Y, or (...)

(...) Very Nice. a little cramped, but the details make up for it. I love the Dark grey / Dark Bley wall effect, very effective and I will be borrowing this idea for a future project :) Aaron A (17 years ago, 28-Apr-08, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.town, FTX)
