I have posted a test release for LDView 4.4 Beta 3 to GitHub:

https://github.com/tcobbs/ldview/release...v4.4_Beta3

Hopefully Linux binaries will be added tomorrow.

This release contains bug fixes since Beta 2, and also uses a Universal Binary for the Mac release. (This should run natively on Apple Silicon Macs, but I don't have access to such a machine to test if it work.)

The ChangeHistory.html file that is included in the release lists all of the changes since LDView 4.3. In the macOS version, ChangeHistory.html is in the dmg. In the Windows version, ChangeHistory.html gets installed to wherever you install LDView (C:\Program Files\LDView by default). I'm actually not sure where it goes in the Linux version. Please see my Alpha 6 announcement for a list of what I feel are the most important changes relative to LDView 4.3.

Please let me know about any problems you find. The preferred way to do that is with LDView's GitHub Issues tracker. However, if you do not want to create a GitHub account so that you can do that, you can reply to this message.

Hi. It's my first post here, so I hope I am not doing anything wrong. I have almost finnished the set 10219-1 (Maersk Container Train). The only things I'm missing are a minifig head (3626bpb0331) and the torso (973pb0862). I tried doing it myself, but got overwhelmed by LD Part Editor and LD Pattern Creator. Could anyone guide me? Any help is apreciated. Like LD Pattern Creator Tutorials, high resolution images of the parts or help converting SVG to DAT. Thank you very much for your attention. Have a nice day.

Hi,

Sorry been a while since I was here but I can't find the parts request sub forum. I'm sure it existed. Anyway if a mod reads this welcome to move etc.

Anyway I'm trying to find the file for part# 18729 Windscreen 10 x 6 x 4 Curved alt number is 43376.

Its been around since 2015 and I figured it would be here somewhere for sure but alas...

Any ideas if this is happening or (more than likely) is already available and I'm just dumb.

All the best

Does anyone know if this is anywhere to be found?
Part 66913
Perhaps digital-bricks.de? I cannot seem to find it.
If it has not been made, can it be done?

Tnx

Made the mistake of upgrading not expecting that nothing that rendered in 3D would work anymore. Is anyone else having this experience?

I'm on a Macbook Pro 16" with 16GB

RetroMultiInstaller is a script to install LDraw viewer, editor and other tools with LEGO® and TENTE® pieces in Ubuntu Linux and derivates.
(menus shows on English or Spanish depend of your locale configuration).



You can see the script in action in video:

If anyone reading this has access to one of the new Apple Silicon Macs, and would be willing to test a native build of LDView for me, please contact me, either here, or via LDView's official email address. I've managed to get it built, but I'm hesitant to release it (even as a Beta) with absolutely zero testing.

[19:15, 16-11-2020] Jaco van der Molen: Hi all, somehow I found this. http://ianfatash.szm.com/FATASH-INDUSTRY.../LDCad.htm. 
[19:27, 16-11-2020] Orion Pobursky: I've been touting LDraw as a "poor-man's" CAD method for years. Looks like someone finally did it.
[19:29, 16-11-2020] Orion Pobursky: Not a huge fan of them using our logos but I'll prolly get nowhere if I ask them to remove them.
[19:33, 16-11-2020] Jaco van der Molen: Why not? Is this not breaking some license agreements? What they did however is rather nice though.
[19:34, 16-11-2020] Orion Pobursky: You have a point. I do think the CAD work is great.

Do we find this OK?
Like Orion said: they use our logo's, aswel as Rolands LDcad and Travis' LDView.

Hi,

Heres a nice part that can be used as large exaust pipes and have nice connection points.
Part number is 35456

This is it on the bottom of a baseplate with the plunger which i'm not particular bothered about:

I couldn't find it on PT or digitalbricks.de, the unity lego minigame may have it but it wont have edges and I dont know how to export it.

Hi,
I am very new to LPub3D. I have built a big crane, and now am trying to make an instruction of it. So far I have studied all tutorials I could find, and they helped me a lot. But one for my project important information I could not find:



How is it possible to make a detailed view of only an specific area of the whole model?

I would like to make some steps on only a small area of the big crane, and therefore it would be great to zoom in, and crop the rendered image to see only the important area. So I could make a multi step with for example 4 steps on one page, showing only the area where I add parts with higher scale.



Does anybody know a posibility to do this with LPub3D? (On studio I know how to do this, but unfortunatelly not for LPub3D...)

I am using LPub3D 2.3.13.0.1511 (because 2.4 crashes all the time).



Thanks for some help!!!  

David






I have added some examples from official Lego instructions.
