I'm making two of the Koi patterns on 1x2 tiles and need help selecting colors.

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cat...069bpb1167

On the first one I have selected Blue, White, Coral. Don't know about the last color.

This one has orange and reddish brown (as the title says) But the rest?
Might as well do these while I'm at it. So we have all the fish

Attached is the Lego set 8846 - Tow Truck from 1982.

Oke according to MPD Center 2.5.1.0

Done with MLcad.

Wheels are rubber-black
According to MPDcenter 2.5.1.0 is the file correct.
I added the new license: "Licensed under CC BY 4.0 : see CAreadme.txt" that is the only error MPD throws, because I can't find where to adjust this in MPD center.
Also added the thread files, however these files are delivered under the old license, I expect that should stay or can I change those files to new license as well?

Enjoy! Smile

Smaug parts:

wing folding right:

The wing has rubber tissue/or all rubber. It folds with the tissue in the wingspan slot in-between the hinge that becomes closer or further bent based on how hinged the wing is. So it can't be made in two parts but also has to move.

No doubt about it: the best lego dragon wings... But if it's eventually made would they need to be static or have extended and folded versions or a third mid animation version or somehow work like some flex tube? Or a new system just to get it working for just 2 parts?

Hi,

Various sources (Brickset, Bricklink, etc.) talk about the LDraw color id 179 as Flat_Silver (or Flat Silver without the underscore)
Only good old Peeron says "pearlsilver" 

In LDconfig we call this Pearl Silver (too).


I noticed this building a MOC that has the Minifigure Scissors (18920) in it.
I need it to be the right color and it seems this part only comes in Flat Silver.

Should we adjust an make more consistant or is this a well thought through LDraw thing?

Hi,

Building something I was looking for the Cylinder  1 x  1 x 4.333 with Handle (part 87617)
I spent at least 15 minutes searching before finding it.
I assumed it had the word "Bar" in the description or as a keyword.

Also, I wonder what this part has to do with 87618 Bar  4.5L with Handle? (forgive me if this is dump question ;-)
Part 87618 has Bar in the description.

Since is seems 87618 and 87617 are related, can we make this more consistant: either choose Bar or Handle in the description?
Or add keyword bar to one and handle to the other?

I think there are some wrong dimensions on part 4522. Based on its use in set 10185 (see image), I propose that the head should be an even 12 LDU wide, instead of 12.5. And it should probably be centered on the handle, so it protrudes 8 LDU on either side (right now it's ~8.5 and 7.5).

Does anyone know of any other uses that would support (or refute) these adjustments?
   

Hi,

Could you please add the colour 'Reddish Orange' to the config? I think it was only available recently.

From Bricklink:
6466720 is the part and colour combination code (or ElementID) for this part in Reddish Orange colour.

Hello all,

I am in need of a way to generate BOMs for models I make. I have tried (in vain mostly) to use LPub3D, LDview, and Studio and none of them quite fit what I need. 

I make a lot of custom shaped hoses for detailing and use BrickArms parts and even use 3D printed parts for certain details. I can easily make LDraw files of them to use them in the instructions but when it comes time to make the BOM, I start having issues. 

LPub3D just seems to break but has a nice feature in that I can "replace" a part in the part list to show a different part like chains or cut hose. 

Studio doesnt display part name or number if its on an official LEGO part

LDView (via Peeron) doesnt display parts images if they do not exist in the data base of existing parts. 

Another use case is that I use a single color, Sand Purple, for all of the parts that can be "any color" and that also seems to break the peeron solution.

Does anyone have any suggestions? 

I had an idea to use the buildinginstructions.js to render whatever models I had but I dont know enough about js or web coding to make it work.

Hey All,

Over the last two weeks I have been working on a website to generate LDraw code and render it on the web using AI. I wanted to thank this community for all the resources and documentation that I needed to get it working!

The website it called https://brickgenerator.com/

It is still a total work in progress and gives less than ideal results, but sometimes is pretty clever!

How to use:
1. Enter text of what you want to generate
2. Wait a really long time lol (Working to make it faster but takes around a minute)
3. See Ldraw code and a rendered model (Unless you get an error.... oh the errors Sick )
4. Share your designs with others! Examples: Poop emoji & Donald Trump?!

Please let me know your feedback and share your designs so I can see the issues or the cool things you can generate!

Also, if you feel so inclined to upvote me on product hunt, it would be greatly appreciated!
