|
| (...) Argh! It's so simple! ;-) I swear, I'd get over these hurdles more easiliy if there was a recent book for POV-Ray... It would probably help if I read the whole doc, too, but it's like reading a dictionary (I usually get stuck around "G"). :-P (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.faq)

|
| I think that's the right question. I'm trying to get L3P to give me zero skewing from perspective; I want an isometric view such as what LDraw gives me. I'm taking the approach that to do this in photography, you should get real far back and zoom (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-99, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.faq)

If you have the time, I raised some potential FAQ questions earlier, in: (URL) not sure which, if any, are really necessary, but they popped up in my noggin and probably the noggins of some others as well... :-, Cheers, - (...)

| (...) I have to agree. If TLG wants to be non-violent, no guns anywhere. On the other hand, I think maybe they could draw a line with things like modern day weapons. I think they can give the police hand-held pistols, and still do without (...) (25 years ago, 21-Sep-99, to lugnet.faq)

| (...) I think the answer that Todd suggested (at the last NELUG meeting) was that swords, lances, etc., were added because they're 'historical'... and also you "can't have knights without swords"... as for the cannons, rifles, and pistols, well, I (...) (25 years ago, 20-Sep-99, to lugnet.faq)

| (...) The historical answer "green and brown (and a few other colors) can be easily used for military models, and LEGO is non-violent, so green and brown aren't allowed, except in limited situations". I don't think the cost of production was a real (...) (25 years ago, 20-Sep-99, to lugnet.faq)
