  Webgl renderer possible?
Posted by: Einar Öberg - 2012-01-20, 23:20 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - Replies (5)

Hi! I'm doing research about making a webgl renderer for ldraw-models. I'm curious if any of you guys have seen that before. Maybe it's a difficult task, with all dependencies and high polygon-count but is it worth a shoot? The webgl-engines like three.js is quite optimized these days. Or do I need geometry-shaders for all the details, like studs?

  LDConfig.ldr updated to version 2012-01-06
Posted by: Chris Dee - 2012-01-19, 7:22 - Forum: LDraw.org Announcements - Replies (2)

The LDraw colour configuration file (LDConfig.ldr) has been updated to include three new colours Medium_Azure (322), Medium_Lavender (30), and Olive_Green (326). Additionally a new internal colour (493) for Magnet materials has been introduced.

The new file is immediately available for download from the Core Files and Libraries download page and will also be incorporated into the next official Parts Update.

The LDraw.org colour chart has been updated.

Many thanks to Scott Wardlaw for managing this.

  Memory issues in C++
Posted by: Tim Gould - 2012-01-17, 7:08 - Forum: Off-Topic - Replies (13)

I was reading about the LDView bugs and spotted this statement.

Travis Cobbs Wrote:Also, no matter how much memory you have, LDView is a 32-bit app, so it will crash if it ever needs more than 2GB (or perhaps 3GB, but I don't think so).

I've been wondering why some code I'd written kept crashing and throwing std::bad_alloc and it's very likely to be this.

So... do any of the C++ gurus around here know how to bypass the problem in general? I've got some numerical code that needs to store and manipulate massive matrices and to run on 32bit systems as well as 64bit.

Only on the Parts Tracker - e.g. her. I'm not yet convinced this is a good idea, or sure how we should implement it in the Parts Library.

  Owner LDraw Facebook page
Posted by: Jaco van der Molen - 2012-01-16, 11:05 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (5)

Hi all,

Who is the owner of the LDraw pages and group on Facebook?
http://www.facebook.com/pages/LDraworg/282028509934

This one is is Tim Gould's, I see?
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=21110855277

I see Tim Courtney made this one
http://www.facebook.com/groups/174133799292676/

Shouldn't "we" put some effort in social media?
I think announcements like a new version of MLCad or Part release should be mentioned here?

Jaco
