  Upcoming change to part submission
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2023-07-11, 17:05 - Forum: Parts Tracker Discussion - No Replies

Once testing is finished, I'm implementing a small change to the way part submission works in setup for a much larger overhaul.

Right now, the submitter chooses what folder they are submitting a part to. I realized that for non-TEXMAP images, choosing the folder doesn't matter as this is determined by the part type and is enforced by the validation. I'm going to remove the folder choices for text parts and replace with "DAT part" or something equivalent.

The bonus to this change is that you'll be able to submit all your text file at the same time as opposed to all the primitives then all the subparts then the parts, etc... The only files that will have to be submitted separately will be TEXMAP images.

Eventually, I'm going to change it so that you can submit everything at once and the PT will prompt you to choose a folder for the TEXMAP files if it can't figure it out based on usage.

Sad 3847a Original Yellow Castle Minifig Sword
Posted by: Thom Kok - 2023-07-10, 20:01 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (9)

Hey guys! I would like to request this sword from the 375-2 yellow castle set: https://rebrickable.com/parts/3847a/weap...mooth-abs/
Since I prefer being as accurate as possible in Bricklink Studio, is this the reason for this request. The normal variant is found here https://library.ldraw.org/official/7278

I hope somebody would like to create 3847a.

  Shorter 8mm CV joint from set 42160
Posted by: SNIPE - 2023-07-06, 19:35 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (15)

Hi,

I would like to submit a new part.

I think It looks fine in LDCAD and I don't see any problems but have posted it here just to double check.

I am waiting for sariel or kbalage (RacingBrick) to give me the proper part ID's, according to the sets inventory it has the element ID of 4447240. Here is the LDRAW script:

 I don't have submit priveleges yet so maybe someone can submit it for me?

Question Tips for printed hips/legs?
Posted by: Lee Gaiteri - 2023-07-06, 3:39 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (8)

I'm getting back into part authoring and have three torsos ready to submit. I'm looking at doing the troubadour torso next, but he also has printed legs.

I've never done printed legs and hips, and that might be a bridge too far for me, but I'm curious if I can learn to pull it off in time. But since we have some parts like that, do any experienced part authors have good tips on how to do that?

(For torsos I'm working on some tools to help me crank those out faster. One of the bigger problems I had was lining up photos from BrickLink to trace an .svg over, but I've figured out a nice way to deal with that.)

  3023a?
Posted by: Steve - 2023-07-04, 21:19 - Forum: General LDraw.org Discussion - Replies (14)

Hi,

Upon downloading the latest part pack the 3023 part appears to have been split, I now have 3023a in my parts list instead. This is a real pain as it no longer has a simple 3023 (1x2 plate). All my previous models now have to be updated, but even worse the conversion tool for bricklink parts list no longer will recognize this so have to be manually amended, which is a huge frustration. Why has this change happened? It seems pedantic in the extreme. Is there a way to rename parts in the parts list simply? I would love to get rid of all the "a" variants as they simply mess up the MLCad 2 Bricklink Converter. 

Many thanks

  6192.dat has invalid matrices
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2023-07-03, 23:59 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (4)

6192.dat seems broken, but it is so old I was doubting LDCad's detection.

LDView doesn't issue warnings though.

But line 68 is certainly wrong: 1 16 36 20 0 0 0 0 0 0 -16 -16 0 0 2-4edge.dat
