  Hose routing advice
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2019-08-28, 16:27 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (1)

Attached is a sample of hose routing from a current project.

Here's the scale from the instructions:
   

Ribbed hose 1 (the 3 middle hoses) are magenta dotted in the instructions. The online inventory for this part this would correspond to Flat Silver Hose, Ribbed 7mm D. 9L
Ribbed hose 2 (the shorter hose to the right) is orange dotted. The online inventory for this part this would correspond to Flat Silver Hose, Ribbed 7mm D. 7L
Ribbed hose 3 (the longer hose to the left) is green dotted. The online inventory for this part this would correspond to Flat Silver Hose, Ribbed 7mm D. 18L

I have a couple of issues:
- The hoses overlap other components. How do others deal with this issue?
- The hose lengths in the instructions vs. actual model appear to not be correct, especially for hose 2. I have this set (8458) but it's packed up somewhere and I can readily verify.

Note: the attached MPD will only work in LDCad since I have fallback code turned off.

Thumbs Up 53834 RAIL 8X12, W/ RAMP Hidden Side Train Re-Railer
Posted by: Cam's Bricks - 2019-08-28, 7:05 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (5)

Hello,

Would it be possible to get this part into the library?

I have attached a front and back photo. The ramp goes down to 3 LDU tall at its lowest. 

Thanks,
Cameron

  [split] Proposed change to sticker spec for transparent stickers
Posted by: Magnus Forsberg - 2019-08-21, 15:21 - Forum: Official File Specifications/Standards - Replies (6)

(2019-08-16, 1:17)Travis Cobbs Wrote: There are so many replies here, can you repost as a response to this message ....

I can't find any example in the library of a sticker where the white top surface isn't modeled in colour 15 (white).
We seam to not follow the standard, and the practice is accepted. And with pattern printed on transparent plastic, the need for allowing the use of colour 16 on the top surface is clear.


https://www.ldraw.org/article/339.html
  • "The sticker pattern is modelled in its true colours; they are not modifiable from the outside. All printed colours of the pattern must be matched, and the background (non-printed portion) of the pattern must use colour 16. Mimicking a colour by blending in the background colour of the part underneath using colour 16 is not allowed."

I' want to change to this:
  • "The sticker pattern is modelled in its true colours; they are not modifiable from the outside. All colours of the top surface must be matched, and the back side and sides of the sticker must use colour 16. Print on transparent plastic sheet should use colour 16 on the transparent part of the top surface."

  ldrawloader - C/C++ open-source loader
Posted by: Christoph Kubisch - 2019-08-18, 11:10 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - Replies (2)

Hi,
if anyone is searching for a self-contained ldraw loader, I have recently open-sourced a hobby project. It doesn't come with all the bells and whistles to the various Ldraw features yet, but should be useful nevertheless.

https://github.com/pixeljetstream/ldrawloader

It also implements chamfered hard edges for better rendering quality, for that purpose additional "fixes" are done to the models.

  Ldraw: Bionicle parts for Brutaka
Posted by: Demuskha - 2019-08-16, 10:43 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (1)

Hey guys!

Since I was a child I've been a huge fan of Brutaka, and after I've discovered LDD and studio.io, my interest in digital lego has steadily increased. I am making this post, since I am obviously trying to remake Brutaka - I have found most parts but unfortunately I struggle with som vital parts. I have not been able to find:

  1. Brutaka's mask - [color=#005ea6]53583
    Bionicle Mask Olmak[/color]
  2. Brutaka's head - 47312
  3. Brutaka's brain - 47313
And some other parts, but I am mentioning these first since these are the vital ones. I have seen that one guy has already done what I want to do at this link;

http://board.ttvchannel.com/t/brutaka-ldraw-model/36725

But I simply cannot figure out how he got the mask, head etc. Could anyone help me out finding the rest of the pieces / or maybe if some experienced ldraw users would like to make the final parts?

If not, could you guide me to ressources on how to learn to make my own parts?

Kind regards

  Prims Problem with LDPC/LDPE
Posted by: Johann Eisner - 2019-08-14, 21:01 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (3)

I don't know, if the problem already is known, so I report it.
When I export a file from LDPC to a .dat file, the prims are placed at a wrong position.
It looks like, they are mirroed at the the x and y axis.
To show what I mean, I have attached screenshots and the base files.
