For example you can replace all bricks in a wall with the boxed version except for the top and bottom ones.
The reason those packed three js files are bigger is probably because they contain the flattened mesh of all parts the source model uses.
LDraw models (usually) don't hold the actual 3d data, they only specify which brick is where in what color.
Thanks for answer and tips. I didn't know that is possible to see the content of ldr files using notepad (lxf files contain strange combinations of chars). Simple test revealed what is the problem: I just saved in your program ldr file with 1x1 white plate (pos: 0,0,0), size of ldr was under 1KB. Notepad show only this: "1 15 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3024.dat".
After "packing" to mpd file the size increased to 43KB.
Mpd file includes simple explanation of calculating colors for edges etc., all colors' codes from LDraw, of course info about 1x1 plate and it's position and in the end a lot of informations about who, when and under what license created part.
Fragment of mpd file:
Code:
1 15 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 parts/3024.dat
0 FILE parts/3024.dat
0 Plate 1 x 1
0 Name: 3024.dat

so the problem is rendering bricks and I'm going to replace some bricks as you advised.
