I'm going to become much more of a stickler about HISTORY lines. If you have a submit on a part and you are not the author there must be at least 1 HISTORY line with your username. This is a CC BY 2.0 requirement that we must abide by. Submissions that fail to meet this criteria will be header edited or held until the submitter contacts a Header Admin for an edit.

Hello everyone:

This thread is for Lego Mindstorms NXT, NXT 2.0 and EV3 sets.

I have made several of them and posted in Eurobriks page (long time ago); I'm try to OMRize and share all of theme here, but before of doing that I've this question on Education Expansion sets: which number I need to use, since it's a two number sets and MPDCenter do not recognize the two number, just one?

Edit: As example EV3 Education Expansion 45544+45560 Elephant set.

Could the patterned parts summary be configured to search for all variations of a part number (a, b, etc.)? For example, it would be helpful to see which patterns appear on any version of the minifig head, regardless of which type of stud it has.

Let's get this fixed. It's going to hold things up in 2 weeks.

Are there any people still using LD4DStudio out there?

I'm redesigning my custom CMS and thinking of taking the LD4DStudio.nl domain offline in order to save me the time to redo that one too.

Some Duplo parts (and a handful of others) don't have a proper CATEGORY. Unless there's major objection, I plan on recycling and fastracking these parts to add one. I can post a list if desired.

Hi Ldrawers. I'm new to the world of Parts Authoring, but have with invaluable help from Philo started learning the art.

I have just finished my first complete minifigure and would like to get some good feedback on it. Hope it's OK that I ask for it here. I already got some feedback on the torso already.

The parts in question are *pc4b.dat

One thing in particular I am a bit in doubt about is the brown eyebrows and stubble. When seeing it with Medium Nougat hair I am wondering if it should be changed.

Best regards,

Hi,

I see some cool new parts from this set, and the best bit is he even shows the parts up-close on their own as well as showwing the parts inventory in the instruction manual which shows the part ID's. here is what I got:

4x8 inverted tile (6372268)
Chest 2x4(6278470)
Chest lid 2x4 with 2 offset studs (6375791)
Technic axle hole barrel with hook (6372272)

Maybe more, but im not a lego system expert so

Hi all,

I have a model of 9000+ parts for which I like to add auto-steps in LDCad.
This model is too big, so LDCad times out.
Is there a way to increase the time out? I thought I had read that before and it was discussed, but I cannot seem to find it here.

I have tried using MLCad, which can atleast sort the bricks by position, but then adding auto-steps by height, there are a lot (2500+) steps.
Also lenghtwise, ie parts at the back of the model that are the same height, get their own steps.

Or: would there be another way to add steps, after each height change (y-coordinate)

Thanks.

Jaco

One of the parts in question:

The part in question is clearly named wrong. Per the spec, sticker shortcuts are suffixed with dXX. The codes for patterns don't really apply to sticker shortcuts so XX should really just be the next number in sequence that isn't in use. That said, we have one official file in the 4515dXX family that uses "x" so we could go with dsX. I'd prefer the former but can live with the latter.
