  Parts 11216 and 89519
Posted by: Massimo Maso - 2020-11-01, 9:40 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (2)

I'm starting to work on 11216 and 89519.
According to the references I found in digital-bricks.de, the two parts are very similar and there will be some subparts in common.
What I'm not sure about is the area below the studs.

In one case (89519) the cylinder is connected to the straight part between two little cylinders, in the other (11216) the intersection is direct.
I tried to verify this with pictures of the actual components, but couldn't find a good enough one.
Can anyone tell me what to do?

  cyli2.dat
Posted by: Ulrich Röder - 2020-10-31, 20:06 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (15)

This misinformation should be adapted urgently:


https://www.ldraw.org/library/primref/

Circular cylinder:

n-fcyli2.dat

"This suite of primitives are used to generate cylinders or part cylinders. These are provided in two forms - with conditional lines (n-fcyli) or without conditional lines (n-fcyli2). In most circumstances the "cyli" version should be used. The "cyli2" versions are for special cases, such as the rounded corners of stickers."


Magnus pointed out to me that cylinders with conditioning lines are definitely necessary for stickers with rounded inside / outside corners.

Nice trap .... for every clueless who obeys the written rules. Wink

  Help rotating a part file ccontaining subparts
Posted by: Alex Herrera - 2020-10-31, 17:35 - Forum: Parts Authoring - No Replies

Hello,



I need help with a rotating situation. I have the file  6237277a.dat which contains a reference to 7 subparts(6237277as01-08) and it looks like (inputdata.png). Each one of them are oriented to the top position with -0.25 as "y" position.
What I'm trying to do is to fold that file using 15068 top part(15068 top - copia.dat) as reference in LETGUI  (with Slicerpro  tool).  The problem I have is  that the only way that worked for me, was to "expand subfiles in pattern").  The result looks good (6237277aout.dat) but it turns out that the subparts are inlined in that file.
How can I  regroup the formed result into the same subfiles from the flat version ?

Thanks in advanced for any help you could provide.

Regards,

Alex Herrera (alanbrito98)

  Part Requests: Scooby-Doo Hairpieces
Posted by: Matthew Coleman - 2020-10-28, 12:10 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (7)

Hey again, I've noticed that the following hairpieces from LEGO Scooby-Doo are currently not listed in LDraw's Parts Database.

21787 - Shaggy Rogers's Hairpiece

[Image: 21787.png]

21788 - Fred Jones's Hairpiece

[Image: 21788.png]

I'd really like to have these hairpieces added to the Parts Tracker so they can be added to Bricklink's Studio software someday. Thank you.

  Run LDCad on Chromebook?
Posted by: Jaco van der Molen - 2020-10-26, 18:18 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (3)

Hi all,

Would it be possible to run LDCad on a Chromebook?
Since it is Linux based and a linux terminal can be installed.
Or do you need a Linux OS for that?

Just curious.

  Patterned part reminder
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2020-10-26, 4:31 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (3)

Since I've seen a few new parts where this is not the case and as a reminder to all authors:
All patterned parts currently on the PT need to have, at a minimum, a !KEYWORDS entry of: Set <set number>. If you authored (or review) a part where this is not the case no hold is needed but please email Chris to fix the header. I also highly encourage a Bricklink or Rebrickable number as it makes both my (with the PBG generator) and the Rebrickable's parts admin's life easier.

Please see:

Exclamation Export a .dat file to blender
Posted by: KL3W - 2020-10-22, 17:23 - Forum: Help - No Replies

Hey!

I'm new to this website, let me introduce myself. I'm KL3W_lego (@kl3w_lego on IG). I make LEGO 3D renders. I am interested by one part I found in the Parts Tracker (https://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.c...904ps0.dat), so I downloaded the .dat file and opened it in LDview. All was good. But then, as I work in Blender, I don't know how to use the .dat file. Is there a way to extract some kind of texture from a .dat file??

Please I need help from anyone  Smile
