  Re: LDraw and the Track Designer (Was: Next show)
 
(...) Track Designer can already automatically rotate [1] and scale any new bitmap that you give it. I'm not sure why you would want to do this in an image editor? What are the weird artifacts that you are referring to when using magenta as the (...) (26 years ago, 16-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: LDraw and the Track Designer (Was: Next show)
 
This sounds like an excellent idea, however I'm not sure how to implement it. If it were a built in feature of Track Designer it would require that the entire rendering engine of LDraw be built into TD. A bit daunting! If it were built into LDraw, (...)

(...) Shouldn't give any problems. (...) If we just register the port information for the relevant parts (road plates, track, and monorail track), and inline all sub-files (not including parts) the inlined version of the model will contain indirect (...)

  Re: LDraw and the Track Designer (Was: Next show)
 
Yep, that was EXACTLY what I was thinking of. The convertor should create the needed views (all the rotations), and if it can handle the scaling too, so much the better. Just scaling bitmaps down in an image editor gives weird artifacts if you're (...) (26 years ago, 16-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.dev)

Francesco: (...) LEGO has only had signals for the 4.5 V and the 12 V series. Does anybody have suggestions for working signals for the 9 V series? For the signal itself you can either use 1x2 plates with a diode or use two plain diodes. I would use (...) (26 years ago, 16-Feb-99, to lugnet.trains)

Well I hit my first MPLS Target today.... Perfect demographics... close in to the inner city, lots of socioeconomically disadvantaged shoppers. No one with any serious money for large sets. Should be a mother lode based on past experience. I'm (...) (26 years ago, 16-Feb-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.trains)
