Merlijn Wissink Wrote:I really considered making all LDraw models OMR, but I decided not to do that (yet). Simply because I don't have the time to modify all the headers. And, because according to the OMR standard (as far as I know), if the set is only 1 thing (for example, only 1 plane), it should be a .ldr and not a .mpd with submodels. However, a lot of the models are made with a bunch of submodels (for example a submodel for the tail, a submodel for the door etc. etc.). It's not OMR, but in my opinion it would be a waste if only I wouldn't share the file, just because it's not completely OMR.
Which is a real pitty. OMR isn't that complicated and the benefit is that you get a standardized header for set numbers and names. Also MPDCenter does a good job in identifing errors and more important inline unofficial parts. Just check out the models that ship with the AIOI.
Maybe we just need a tool that does just that, check and validate OMR and nothing else - MIKE!
