  Re: Missing seams
 
(...) Hi David, The problem is a shortcoming in L3P. The way L3P adds seam "lines" is to shrink the pieces by a small amount. How L3P determines what to shrink (since it wouldn't be appropriate to shrink any subpart assemblies) may introduce the (...) (18 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Missing seams
 
(...) Hi David, The short answer is that there are no seams, only lines. Since a line is a one-dimensional object it is invisible in POVray. The long answer is that POVray won't show edge lines because they are not really useful and don't fit with (...) (18 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Missing seams
 
Any idea why the some pieces don't show seams in POV-Ray but they do in MLCad? Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere. I did search for it, but I didn't find anything. (Newbie to all this.) For example, this is the model as seen in MLCAD. (...) (18 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.people.newbie, lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)

Guten Tag! My name is Jeffrey Jarvis. I have been a long time fan of Lego from as early as I can remember. I decieded to get Lugnet posting access because I have a problem, and this is the place to come to have questions answered. But enough about (...)

  Avoiding confirmation via e-mail
 
Hi all, Is it possible to avoid e-mail confirmation when I send a message via NNTP? Often I use slrn via ssh, and read the e-mails (or open an internet page) to confirm my posts is so annoying. Thanks (and excuse me for my bad English) (18 years ago, 29-Jun-06, to lugnet.people.newbie)

  Another one who's new here
 
Hello everyone, I've been reading these newsgroups for a while, and now decided to request a posting permit. Before my dark age, I used to build lots of models with LEGO, now, I love to build models for LDraw :-) Concerning the latter, I put some (...) (18 years ago, 1-May-06, to lugnet.people.newbie)
 
  Re: What do I do wrong?

  Re: What do I do wrong?
 
(...) Hi Christian! It appears that you didn't post the note in FTX. The syntax works when you use that format. I don't know how that is done in NNTP, though, as I directly send using the web interface. And GREAT MOC! And nice presentation! Joe Meno (...)

  Re: Hello, and NNTP help
 
(...) Not really. I had already tried 1119. It appears when I change a setting (eg name), it will give me a connection-refused-type message until I switch to 1119, after which both 119 and 1119 will give me go-setup-type messages. --Jamie (19 years ago, 10-Jun-05, to lugnet.people.newbie)
 
  Re: Hello, and NNTP help
 
(...) Are you pointing to the right port? IIRC LUGNET does not use the default news port. From (URL) (IIRC, somewhat out of date since it still refers to the default port): ".

  Hey all!
 
Just wanna say hi and that lugnet is great. I have had some trouble posting, but I think I have it under control now. One thing--Some of my MOCs have been on the highlitghted list, but I have no replies. Is this normal? Thanks, -Josh (19 years ago, 13-Apr-05, to lugnet.people.newbie)
