(...) I'll have to look at this. You are sure that MEGAPOV is in the same directory as POV-Ray, just like MEGA-POV instructions say? I've not tested the new MEGAPOV and POV-Ray 3.5. Caveat Emptor. (...) Please make sure you are only running one (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jan-03, to lugnet.inst)
 
  Lpub 2.1.0.4 problems
 
Kevin, I may have jumped the gun, but I just noticed your site had a new version of Lpub, so I downloaded and installed. I am finding a couple of problems (not sure if they are related to 2.1.0.4 or if I am just now finding them). - I noticed that (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.inst)

Bill, Give it a try. I'm still working on the version that has auto-centering, but it will be out soon. The problem only shows up sometimes. Kevin (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
(...) I always put the origin at the center of the first piece (or pieces if the first step has more than one). That means nothing I do will render properly in Lpub?? MLCAD doesn't have this problem - my models are always centered, no matter what. I (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)

Hi Everyone, Just wanted to let those of you who use it know that a new version of BrikTrak 2002 has been posted on the website.

  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
LPub uses: -cg0,0 -ca30 by default. LPub controls view angle by rotating all the parts to match rotation step specification and view coordinates. It seems like this qualifies as auto-centerable, but it does not always work. Kevin (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)

  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
(...) L3P can perform automatic camera positioning only when you use -cg<la>,<lo>[,<r>] camera globe position, default is 30,45,0 and radius is <= 0. -ca<a> is allowed too. Otherwise you have constrained the camera too much. /Lars (22 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
(...) 1 degree practically corresponds to orthographic camera. You can also use e.g. 0.01, the camera will be put very far away then. See the effect of various camera angles at (URL) I should add an example of 1 degree... (...) Yes, it is being (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)

  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
Hi Jake, (...) I'm merely setting the camera angle to 1 which eliminates perspective. I do not set orthographic. I modified LPub so the lowest camera angle is 1, and fixed the label that indicates the actual camera angle so it is updated as the (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
So to clarify, rather than use the ortho setting, you are choosing the camera angle setting and using a 1? Is that it, or are you doing additional stuff? I was playing around last night and was noticing that the creations weren't always centered (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Re: LPub 2.1.0.3 released
 
I ran into the want for orthographic camera, with my pneumatic adding machine MOC, and made some discoveries. You can simulate orthographic images with a camera angle of 1. I tried using 0, but L3P silently ignores this and assumes you want the (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.inst)
 
  Instructions difficult for 7 year old
 
My littlest niece got the 200-piece play table for Christmas (I wonder who?) and we tried to follow some of the instructions inside the idea book. They are really hard for a 7-year old. The chief difficulty is when what should be a 6 step build is (...) (22 years ago, 28-Dec-02, to lugnet.inst)
