Guys as you know there are several missing patterns, to coordinate the effort and make it more useful the work we do.


I noticed that when you look a brick like 3010 on rebricable it says the amount of sets that its being used with its pattern. As an example, Some patterns are used in 1set other like in 10

So i was thinking in asking them to send us a list of the most used bricks with patterns and if they are listed or not at ldraw .

Benefits.
1 we will know which bricks patterns are missing
2 we will be willing on the most used patterns and not on a single brick that was only used at 1980 in 1 set.
3 save time will looking what to draw and dont re make a pattern that was all ready on the ldraw gallery.

This can be done by hand but it's a hard work, as rebricable or otger sites has this information on their db may be easy for them to send us the list.

This also can be extended for the bricks minifgs, 3d objects that are not yet available at ldraw.



File example
Brick number; amount of set, ldraw available?,brick descrption, url on the site.... Etc

Probably some of you may know the owners of those sites they may be able to help.

Hi all,

For quite some time now I was wondering why these parts do not show up in the Plate category part bin in LDCad:

14418 Plate 1 x 2 with Socket Joint-8 with Friction
14419 Plate 1 x 2 with Socket Joint-8 with Friction and Ball Joint-8
14704 Plate 1 x 2 with Socket Joint-8 with Friction Centre

It turns out these are located in the "Hinge plates and tiles" part bin.

Their counterparts like 14417 Plate 1 x 2 with Ball Joint-8 on Side and 22890 Plate 1 x 2 with Ball Joint-8 on End do show up in the Plates bin.

So either all go to "Plates" or all go to "Hinge Plates"

Can somebody either confirm, agree, disagree or clarify?

Thanks.

Jaco

I found this set in a garage sale, and it seemed worth creating a few LDraw parts.... https://photos.app.goo.gl/t3ztqove4GUqPZeg6
... Then I saw that Mikeheide already did that. Unfortunately I was not able to find a valid link to that library. Help ?

A master thread for promotional sets

Ten members of the LDraw core met at the LEGO headquarter in Billund from Wednesday 22.05. to Sunday 26.05.2019. This was the first time that people building together the LDraw Parts Library online – some for almost 20 years - met in real life.

Beside visiting the LEGO Idea House, the Kornmarken Factory and the new LEGO House opened in September 2017 they also had a meeting with people from the LDD team and other compartments of the company. A request for a dedicated information channel when it comes down to part numbers, meshes or colours was forwarded.

   

The attendees dedicated an entire day to discuss the future of LDraw, sort out some long outstanding issues such as missing colours, "What requires a HOLD vote on the Parts Tracker" or what is missing at the website. The outcome has or will be posted in the forums in the upcoming days.

The following members attended the visit (in alphabetical order):

Magnus Forsberg
Phillippe “Philo” Hurbain
Gerald Lasser
Steffen Lohse
Santeri Piippo
Orion Pobursky
Max Martin Richter
Nils Schmidt
Willy Tschager
Jaco van der Molen

Unfortunately the following members couldn’t attend:

Travis Cobbs
Chris Dee
Johann Eisner
Michael Heidemann
Roland Melkert
JC Tchang

On a personal note I’d like to add that I had much fun and one of the best days of my life :-)

Hello there,

I've been lurking in the shadows for years, but decided to join in.

While rendering two of my models I found out that the part lg_48933 that comes with the AIOI looks like this:



After testing for a while, the solution turned out to be simple, the first instance of:

People occasionally ask about SvgToDat (which they sometimes call svg2dat), so I have finally gotten around to uploading its source code to GitHub (along with both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows builds). It can be found here:

https://github.com/tcobbs/SvgToDat

If anyone wants to take over this project, feel free. It is MIT licensed. I wrote this code many years ago (no later than 2011), and haven't really touched it since (other than getting it to compile in Visual Studio 2015). I created a GitHub release that contains two executable zips: one for 32-bit Windows, and the other for 64-bit Windows. It can be found here:

https://github.com/tcobbs/SvgToDat/releases/tag/v0.1

To use the program, simply run SvgToDat <filename.svg>. It will create a file named filename.ldr alongside the SVG file.

Guys,

here is an update of the color file with a rearrangement of some RGBs, LEGO ID as well as new rubber colors in the 10000 range:
