Does the LDR/DAT file format have an official level of precision? To how many decimal places do we store numerical values in files?

Hello,
I would like to give the Jackhammer (30228) to a mini figure in both hands.
With the minifigure generator in MLCad, I can only put the jackhammer in one of the two hands and the adjustment so that the jackhammer is held by both hands has to be done manually. This is very complex and the result may be inaccurate.
Does anyone know of an easier solution?


Greetings

Manfred

Hey,

this version uses a different configuration file.
Therefore, it will be necessary to reset all your custom LDPE settings.

What you can do as a workaround:

• run two LDPE instances in parallel (0.8.53 + 0.8.52) and open both option menus to sync the settings manually.
  
• take screenshots from your options menu entries in 0.8.52 before installing 0.8.53.
  

• ...benefit from about 100 different optimizations to LDPEs code base (I added 180000 lines and deleted 185000 lines of code since the last release).
  
• ...benefit from a new, more robust and secure method which loads and saves LDPEs configuration file.
  
• ...get improved hints and tips for the startup dialog (seen on first program start).
  

1. Undo / Redo broke the 3D model if the file ended with empty lines or contained duplicated empty line groups.
   
2. The calculated colour for transparent textures was too dark. (OpenGL 2.0)
   
3. On MacOS X it was not possible to reassign a shortkey, because the dialog window had not the required focus for detecting the keyboard input.
   
4. Avoided obvious divisions by zero on "zoom to fit" with empty models and by scaling a zero-height font with Txt2Dat.
   
5. The 3D editor freezed by an BFC INVERTNEXT without a following TYPE 1 reference line.
   
6. "Make subpart from 3D selection" duplicated "0 BFC INVERTNEXT" meta commands.
   

1. Download the zip-Archive
   
2. Extract the archive content to the location of your choice
   
3. On windows, double-click "run.bat" to start LDPE.
   
4. On linux/mac, you have to excecute the shell script "run.sh" to start LDPE.
   

1. On windows, double-click "update.bat" to search for updates.
   
2. On linux/mac, you have to excecute the shell script "update.sh".

Hi,

I'm not sure if its too early to get this part as it does not have an official part number/ID yet

It's outer diameter looks to be 11L, its inner diameter looks to be 9L and its thickness is 1L.

It is the new technic ring that comes in set 41686, it looks fairlyy easy to make luckily, here is a picture


And here is a 360 degree view: https://youtu.be/EsVsxQWKfkk

I tired to search the forum for that topic, but I could not find any reference.

I was reviewing a small Friends Set (41677) and noticed that there was a small design change in the Friends Arms. I noticed also that the numbers embossed on the part do not match the numbers in the library.

Why do we have them as 92244 and 92245 whereas the parts are embossed with 38187 and 38188?

The new ones are embossed 35678 and 35679
   

There is a pretty interesting little part in the Speed Champion Bronco, set 76905
A 2L bar with a stud sized middle section.

   

I don't yet know the partnumber.

Town Plan / System in play
Sets 1210, 1211, 1212, 1213 and 1236 — the first true model sets!

In 1955, TLG launched the System i leg ("System in play") branding concept, which was the genesis of what we now simply call the Lego "system". System i leg was a line of small model kits, parts packs, accessories and HO-scale vehicles that, together with the existing Lego Mursten gift boxes, all centered around the "town plan"—a soft plastic mat that had a city streetscape laid out on it. So you could say this was also the beginning of the Town theme (although the idea of themes wasn't really introduced until Legoland in the 1970s).

These five small model sets included, for the first time, a selection of parts intended to build specific models, and there were instructions for those models enclosed in the box (as opposed to in the catalog, as with the gift sets of 1954)—another first, although standalone instructions wouldn't become commonplace for about another decade. The models were a collection of small shops or houses, and a garage with a clever automatic door.

These sets went through a few different versions over the years, as slotted bricks were retired and tabbed windows replaced with studded ones, and like all early sets, the exact contents tended to vary quite a bit anyway. When Lego started selling in Germany and beyond, these were sold with 3-digit set numbers (210–213 and 236) to differentiate them from Scandinavian sets that still had the slotted bricks. The 3-digit set numbers became universal in 1958.

Hello, since I allready opened severel thread for the same thing, maybe it would be better toopen a thread to report all of the misisng ering in parts.

Today it's https://www.ldraw.org/parts/official-par...id=2586p4n

A 2-4 ering sould be add in the main model :

So I got this great idea to do a "watch me build this in LDraw" livestream on YouTube or some other platform. Unfortunately it would have to be in the evening my time (Pacific) so that's super late for the US East coast or supper early for Europe. Is there any interest in something like this?

Hi everyone... this is my first post.  I made a custom mini Wall-E I created (with instructions) for my little boy's Wall-E themed birthday party!!  I love working with AutoCAD but never knew there was a Lego version!!!!! LDraw is now my favorite place!
