  three.js goes LDRAW
Posted by: Steffen - 2018-12-22, 0:29 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - No Replies

I was happy to accidentially learn
that there is a Pull Request for three.js
which adds LDRAW support.

this tweet even shows that we were not known
to the developer before Smile

  Make life a little easier for admin ...
Posted by: Ulrich Röder - 2018-12-21, 16:04 - Forum: Parts Tracker Discussion - Replies (2)

An idea .... not more:

Many necessary small changes to already submitted files, finally always lead to an email-rain to the admin ...

What would be.....,


a)  with the supervision of an experienced reviewer


.... if a reviewer would have the opportunity to release an "X" button to the component of a respective author, who would then be able to use this one-time delete function.

...only for this one specified file on the tracker and thus relieve the admin.


or b)


This delete function would be generally allowed to any author ,limited to his own files.



What do you think?

  New Parts Tracker reviewers
Posted by: Chris Dee - 2018-12-21, 15:14 - Forum: Help Wanted - Replies (3)

The 2018-02 Parts Update, and many of the most recent updates, have relied heavily upon a small number of reviewers, who assess the submitted parts for completeness, accuracy, compliance to the standards and demonstrate a logical approach to naming and subparting. The numbers of certify reviews by each reviewer on files released in update 2018-02 were as follows:

  599 MMR1988
  573 MagFors
  332 Steffen
  327 Philo
   68 arezey
   52 Holly-Wood
   20 GeraldLasser
   15 BlackBrick89
    9 mikeheide
    6 mkennedy
    2 theJudeAbides
    2 dulcaoin

As with part authoring, this is not a competition, but it would help to reduce the backlog if we could get more active reviewers onboard.

There is no rigid assessment process, but we do expect candiates to have demonstrated authoring skills, show an understanding and acceptance of the Official Library Standards and be able to provide constructive feedback to authors.

Please contact me or reply here if you feel you have these abilities and are able to contribute.

  LEGO Modulex parts in LDraw
Posted by: Simon van Meygaarden - 2018-12-20, 21:45 - Forum: Help - Replies (4)

Greetings, all, I hope this is the right forum for this question.

I am searching for LDraw definitions for LEGO Modulex parts. Searching this forum, I found a thread from 2012
https://forums.ldraw.org/thread-5616.htm...ht=modulex
but the download link mentioned there doesn't work anymore.

Is there anybody who still has these files, and can help me?

To be sure, I am working with Rebrickable.com, and we are currently adding the Modulex parts to our catalog; having LDraw files for them would be great to show all the different colors, even when we don't have actual photographs.

Thanks in advance,
Simon

  remove mklist source code from official parts releases
Posted by: Steffen - 2018-12-20, 11:18 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (2)

our official parts releases (e.g. 2018-02) contain these 3 files:

mklist1_4.zip
mklist1_6.zip
mklist-c.zip

, containing the source code of mklist.

I would like to request to remove these files from our releases.

The source code instead should be put to GitHub IMHO.

  broken PT activity preview for TEXMAP images on main start page
Posted by: Steffen - 2018-12-20, 10:53 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (1)

The main start page has a broken PT activity preview, see below.
Can something be done about that?
the link itself works fine, just the preview image is missing/broken

  requesting new category "Cardboard"
Posted by: Steffen - 2018-12-19, 22:02 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (5)

the PT has forced me to put file
http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cg...252p02.dat
into !CATEGORY Panel.

I would have better liked a separate category "Cardboard".

can that be introduced?
