Hi, I am a huge fan of the newer studless design, but I find it quite hard to build with it because it takes many iterations.
That's why I am currently searching for a good Lego CAD program to develop technic mocs. If found the Lego Digital Designer, LDraw and LeoCAD. I installed LDD and I think it works nice, but I'm missing some features. Since there are alternatives, I suspect that they have additional features which LDD has not.
I'm looking for the following features:[color=#333333]https://subwaysurfers.vip/ https://psiphon.vip/ https://hillclimbracing.vip/

[/color]

• replace parts
  
  
• modular building (import of pre-build assemblies)
  
  
• Import part lists from sets you own
  
  
• generating (and modifying) an instruction
  
  
• validation of gears and checking for degrees of freedom
  

I inadvertently moved my parts Bin and my Color Bin. Now, the Editting compass and the Step Indicator are to the far left. How can I reset these back to their default positions?

Thanks!

I've made a new primitive, hipstud.dat to be used on all the differently shaped hips available as LDD files.

   

I want to create more hips, like the genie-hip and the ghost-hip. In fact, I already have them prepared and want to upload them.

• Does the name work? hipstud.dat
  When do I have to also create a lo-res version? Isn't that only needed to fool MLCad?
  
• There is sometime a small difference of the inner diameter of the hipstud. Some hipstuds seem to have a blocked inside.
  It is oddly shaped and nothing connects to that hole. Is it OK to only have one version of the hipstud?
  
• I remember a discusion about the tiny hole on the frontside of the stud on short hips and leg, 41879a and 41879b.
  IMO one version is missing, 41879c, with blocked hole. The printed short legs also have a difference in the  small hole, blocked or  open. Do we need to make all these as correct as possible, or is it enough to only use one hipsstud? Which one? I need to create subfiles without printed surface.
  
• There is a subfile for the two-coloured short leg, with shorts (Bart Simpson), but now there is a new version of the two-coloured part for Dobby. New partnumber and new subfiles?
  

Hi, I've been a fan and silent user for many years of the site, parts and software. It brought me many hours of fun, almost as much as the real plastic thing.
I just stumbled with this section of the site and I've been putting together a lot of official models. I'll be submitting themif they're not in the database as I try to make them compliant (thanks in advance for letting me know if I did bad). To start with it, here's the virtual version of my first ever owned set, the Formula I Racer from 1985.
Thanks for your input, and if all goes well there's a lot on the way!

I am unable to find Flex Tube 21 Module with 3.2 Hole (27965) in ldcad. I need help in being able to use it in my model and able to flex it. 

Here's some pics from inside 87574 train motor. It is sealed by 6× Torx T6 screws and requires the appropriate screwdriver to open.


First view inside. We can see that there's a two-headed DC motor, with power first transferred through a crown gear and then further stepped down.


Insides of the bottom part. The text reads "54756 04-J03".


Close-up on one of the gearboxes.


Close-up on the other one.


Orange axles removed. The top part reads 89832 02-J03

Hello,

this is just a minor change, but I do not want to delay it any longer.
I increased the pattern description length to 1024 chars.

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

• Increased the description limit to 1024 characters.
  

Hi there.

Can anyone create the custom panel of the set 6367-1 Semi Truck  with the sticker parts/003440a.dat ([size=x-small][font=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Sticker 2.6 x 5.5 "International TRANSPORT") with 4215 [size=small][font=Tahoma, Arial]White Panel 1 x 4 x 3.[/font][/size][/font][/size]

Hi all,

I wanted to upload a model I made. I am totally new to this, so any feedback is more than welcome.



Best regards,
Charles
