Dear all,
everytime I scroll through the parts containing a hold vote, I'm frustrated cause there are so many unused primitives, that sit there for months and years.

Therefore I would like to suggest, that all unused primitives containing a hold vote should get deleted 6 months after both states got true.

Hi all,

Recently I dove into LDPC and need some help.
Questions I have:

1. Can I use primitives in patterns?
2. Can I select more then one primitive and copy/paste/duplicate them?
3. Can I group a primitives and triangles and copy/paste/duplicate them?
4. Can I use submodels in patterns?

For example, I am creating the pattern for the laserrelector sticker from set 10266.
It has a repetative pattern of dots.
I made one dot with disc primitives and filled the gaps with triangles.
Now I want to use that dot as many times as needed, create the rows and copy them.

Attached is my work so far.

Thanks.

some days ago i asked trevor to add this to lpub3d now it will be available on 2.3.12 version of lpub3d



Subject
Add an option when you right click on the PLI "brick" to add Substitute part, with a dialogue to also change color, scale, camara angels etc.
The aim is to automate the following manually entered meta commands:

• Part type,
  
• Part colour,
  

• Scale
  
• Field of View
  
• Camera angle latitude
  
• Camera angle longitude
  
• Part rotation - Using ROTSTEP arguments

Hi,

today, I decided to finish more features for LDPatternCreator. Here is the result!

Download and install the latest LDPatternCreator release directly from sourceforge.net.

Change log:

New features:

• Rotation will be applied around the selected vertex which is the nearest to the cursor (except for primitives, subfiles and groups)
  
• A click on "Select" cancels "Add vertex" / "Add triangle" ...
  
• "Remove isolated vertices" is always visible and enabled on the toolbar
  
• "Fast triangulation II" is renamed to "Create new vertices during triangle creation"
  
• "Fast triangulation" is now always active by default (can be temporarily deactivated by pressing CTRL or cancelled with RMB)
  

• Fast triangulation suggested the wrong edge on longer triangles
  
• A rare error occured during triangle creation
  

Hey,

on Magnus' and Steffen's workstations the "fast triangulation" feature was not working as expected.
I corrected the implementation and now it works better on all machines.

Download and install the latest LDPatternCreator release directly from sourceforge.net.

Change log:

New features:

• Fast triangulation will now find the nearest edge not the nearest vertex pair. It is also more responsive.
  
• Auto-corrections for primitive data when loading a file
  

• Fast triangulation did not work on some machines
  
• Undo/redo with primitives broke sometimes the stored primitive data
  

Hi,

with this release I replaced the http-interface to ldraw.org (required for the download of ldconfig.ldr and parts from the tracker) with a solution which uses https.

I also provided an alternative 64-bit linux release since I had some problems with LDPE on another linux distro.


As always, you can download LDPE from this page:
http://nilsschmidt1337.github.io/ldparteditor/

Changelog:
(1 new feature and 3 bug fixes)

With this release you will be able to...

• ...see some hints on the configuration screen when you are launching LDPartEditor for the first time.
  

1. The PartReview tool got broken by the introduction of HTTPS on the Parts Tracker.
   
2. The access to categories.txt and ldconfig.ldr got broken by the introduction of HTTPS on LDraw.org
   
3. The program did not really quit when the configuration screen was cancelled.
   

1. Download the zip-Archive
   
2. Extract the archive content to the location of your choice
   
3. On windows, double-click "run.bat" to start LDPE.
   
4. On linux/mac, you have to excecute the shell script "run.sh" to start LDPE.
   

1. On windows, double-click "update.bat" to search for updates.
   
2. On linux/mac, you have to excecute the shell script "update.sh".

Hello,

About Lpub3D bug

When I choose either Convent to callout or Assembled image to parentpage,
Next page nothing is showing on the screen!!
It would be greatly appreciated if someone could solution to this problem?

Kind regards,

Anyone interested in offering a MOC for the Wikipedia page? The current one is too dark IMO, and I can't re-render it because the author did not link to the model file or POV-Ray source code.

Ideally, a nice radiosity render. It needs to have a compatible license, too, such as one of the Creative Commons licenses. Please also upload the actual model and POV-Ray source code somewhere people can access them (maybe github?) out of courtesy.

If no one has an alternate suggestion I will use a render of Datsville. It would show off the fact that you can create "BIG" models using LDraw, as opposed to LDD where you run into issues faster. But a radiosity render will take a lot of time. Maybe more time than I have. We'll see after I do some test renders.

Hello,

Would someone be kind enough to try to author this one : 25111 ?



It is available on digitalbricks.

Many thanks!
