Sad Recreating Lego racers 1: Missing essential parts
Posted by: Thom Kok - 2022-07-20, 15:10 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (2)

Hey guys! I am currently trying to rebuild the LEGO racers 1 cars with their characters, but I am missing some essential items to make it work. Does anyone want to create these parts and add them to the parts tracker?

  LDraw.org 2022-04 Parts Update Now Available
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2022-07-19, 4:42 - Forum: LDraw.org Announcements - Replies (6)

The 2022-04 LDraw Parts Update has been released. This update adds 631 new files to the core library, including 391 new parts and 20 new primitives.

Thanks are due to all the part authors who created or corrected parts for this release. The small, but dedicated, band of reviewers also play an important role in keeping files moving through the Parts Tracker and deserve just as much credit. This update wouldn't have been possible without their dedication and attention to detail.

You can preview the new parts in 2022-04 here, and download the zip-file update or Windows install package here. Alternatively you can use the LDView menu option File | Check for Library Updates... to install the update.

  RCX 1.0/1.5/2.0 Modules
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2022-07-18, 14:20 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (28)

Here's a guide to numbering for the RCX modules for someone looking to create 1.5 and 2.0:

RCX 1.0 module:

76048: Complete Assembly
32109 (already made): Battery cover
32110: IR "glass" on the front
32116: The green, lower part where the batteries go
32058: The yellow, upper part without the clear plastic screen protector and unprinted
32058p01: 30258 with RCX 1.0 Pattern
32108: The clear plastic screen protector
76113: The yellow, upper part with the clear plastic screen protector
6554 (Already made): The electrical plates, plastic portion
75212: 6554 plus the metal electrical contacts
71748: The circuit board
71645: The gray/green button assembly and the black/red button assembly

Since the top of 884 (the full assembly) is hard coded yellow and I think that part should be color 16, we're going to obsolete 884 and create a new complete assembly with the correct number

RCX 1.5 module:

76454 or 76454c01: Complete Assembly
32109 (already made): Battery cover
32110: IR "glass" on the front
32116: The green, lower part where the batteries go
32374: The yellow, upper part without the clear plastic screen protector and unprinted
32374p01: 32058 with RCX 1.5 Pattern
32108: The clear plastic screen protector
32374p01c01: The yellow, upper part with the clear plastic screen protector (no number known, unlike 1.0)
6554 (Already made): The electrical plates, plastic portion
75212: 6554 plus the metal electrical contacts
?: The circuit board
71645: The gray/green button assembly and the black/red button assembly

RCX 2.0 module:

76454a or uXXXX or 76454c02 : Complete Assembly
32109 (already made): Battery cover
32110: IR "glass" on the front
32116: The green, lower part where the batteries go
32374: The yellow, upper part without the clear plastic screen protector and unprinted
32374p02: 32058 with RCX 2.0 Pattern
32108: The clear plastic screen protector
32374p02c01: The yellow, upper part with the clear plastic screen protector (no number known, unlike 1.0)
6554 (Already made): The electrical plates, plastic portion
75212: 6554 plus the metal electrical contacts
?: The circuit board
71645: The gray/green button assembly and the black/red button assembly

This post will be update as numbers are known.

  Library spec suggestion
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2022-07-16, 13:09 - Forum: Official File Specifications/Standards - Replies (4)

By my reckoning, there are 3 major areas of concern for a library part:

  • Part number or filename
  • Geometry (including origin and orientation)
  • Header, the most focused on aspect being description.

Right now those requirements are spread out over 3 documents with the header/description rules further split between the header spec and the library spec. While splitting the spec like this seemed like a good idea at the time, I'm not so sure now. I think that one definitive document with good categorization and layout may be the way to go.

Thoughts?

  Sticker Shortcut clarification
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2022-07-15, 20:53 - Forum: Official File Specifications/Standards - No Replies

I've already received LSB concurrence for this but I realized that while it was discussion in another thread, it was never really discussed on it's own.

The following will be added to the Sticker Shortcuts section of the library spec
https://www.ldraw.org/article/512.html#s..._shortcuts

Quote:The description for sticker shortcuts should be in the following format:
<base part description> with <sticker description> Sticker

Where:
<base part description> is the base part description verbatim
<sticker description> is the sticker description after "Sticker <dimensions>|<shape>"

Example:
Base Part 11477: Slope Brick Curved 2 x 1
Sticker 6142622m: Sticker 1.9 x 0.8 with Black Headlamp on Yellow Background Right
Sticker Shortcut: Slope Brick Curved 2 x 1 with Black Headlamp on Yellow Background Right Sticker

Barring any major objections, this change is effective immediately. I will wait to search and correct parts on the PT to allow for discussion to take place.
