Well it took over 2.5 years but here it finally is: 1.7 Beta 2

   

Many new features/changes, like:
- Rewrite of the LDConfig.ldr loading, it now supports runtime changes and reloads.
- Added support for the !AVATAR and !PREVIEW metas.
- Applied LDraw core spec changes
- Alternative editor panning/rotation control.
- goto step number dialog (part of the default icon bar but you will need to manually reset it when upgrading).
- You can now edit filter pbg files during runtime.
- reorganized the partBin mostly to remove 'unwanted' parts.
- reorganized and extended the default templates.
- improved the shadow library cleaner tools (now also supports unofficial ldraw.org parts).
- a whole lot of bugfixes.
- See changeLog.txt for the full list of changes.

Windows 11 defender will nag about the unknown publisher of the setup. But you should be able to run it anyway by clicking on 'more info'. 
If not then you will need to download the archive version and copy all files over the old ones manually.  Let me know here if more information is needed.

As always you can get the latest version at:

Hope it was worth the wait.

Hi.

I was updating a part on RB : https://rebrickable.com/parts/6954c01/torso-with-wings/
I clicked on the LDraw link : https://library.ldraw.org/parts/list?tab...=u9090.dat
And got no result. 
At first I thaught it was a problem with RB link generation script. 
So I searched for the part manualy.
Same result : nothing (RB url was correct).
I checked in my LDraw folder and found the part.
I tried again : nothing.
I tried to search for the wing subpart manualy by typing 6954, the part didn't showed up.
I finaly found it by using the official parent page for minifig tors (973) (https://library.ldraw.org/parts/14192?of...entsPage=2)

I know it's not a very common and used part, but I wonder if it's a normal behavior.

Hey there everyone! Could someone please find me that LEGO Slime Pack (65726)?
Also, if possible, that Noir Detective hat from the cmf please (5188)

Bricklink Codes: 65726 and 5188

Hi,

I made the bike in Blender, then imported it into LeoCAD.

It's my first lego set, so the pieces aren't perfectly placed. And there are some pieces that I didn't use.

The bike is quite small, is it meant to be like that?

I'm having trouble converting the blender stl file, into a ldr, dat, or mpd.

I just added an image as a submodel using “Session,” “Add new...”, "data", in the hope that I could use the image as a reference for a new model as background.
Just like (here comes the bad S word) it is possible in Stud.io.
The image appears in a new submodel, but cannot be inserted into the main model or any other submodel.
No parts can be added to the submodel containing the image either.
Does anyone know what this function is for, or is it still in development?

Hi,

I wanted to make the Lego sets in Blender, but I'm not sure how to upload them here, or move it to LeoCAD, when I finished?

Hi,

I wanted to know if you can add stickers/custom images to the pieces, e.g: https://www.lego.com/en-gb/service/build...ions/42007

How would I put the stickers on the pieces? Without having to go to blender to do it?

Hi,

These parts would be neat to have in LDRAW, esp the new straight and curved monorail track:

Hi,

I was making a lego set. When I wanted to flip/mirror this piece.

Is there a way to do that?
