I'm not in dire need of this part, but I happened to notice that it isn't in LDraw yet. It looks very much like part 4080, but it has different studs and the back of the tipper bed looks a little different. Compare:
https://rebrickable.com/parts/15455/vehi...bed-4-x-6/
https://rebrickable.com/parts/4080/vehic...bed-4-x-6/

Seems like a not too difficult part (since 4080 is already available) for someone looking for a relatively easy part. Again, for me there's no hurry at all 

The proposal for flexible part extension is now ready for discussion. I basically copy, pasted, and wiki formatted Roland's LDCad spec.

https://wiki.ldraw.org/wiki/Flexible_Par..._Extension

Here are some thoughts/notes for discussion:
- The wiki has a talk page for discussion. Please do not use that and have all discussions here.
- I removed the LDCAD prefix, should we add something else?
- I think we should officialize any unofficial donor parts Roland uses in LDCad
- I think we should require auto-generated fallback code. Thoughts?

Hi,

WE WANT YOU! As new administrator for the Official Model Repository. It is your job to pick the files people post to the Official models thread, cross-check that they follow the rules for the OMR and add them to the database. Ideally you check also that they have been build according to the official building instruction.

Interested? Just reply in this thread.

Dear all,
I got the request in the LAN forum, if it would be possible to bring an update with handled parts in a scheduled base - like every 2 weeks or every month.

The more I think of this idea, the more I like it. I think a list with new uploaded parts, parts with at least 2 cert votes, parts with Admin cert and parts that are released in an update could handle all these things.


I think, this would increase the user experience, if it would be a subpage with a link from the front page. Actually I feel, that a normal user is not very satisfied, that the main page doesn't change the content that often and most of the AFOLS I know, don't even know about the PartsTracker and it's function and some of them had already asked me in the part, if LDraw is dead or not. With this future they could see, that something is going on and that several parts are updated or whatever.


Best regards
Max

I was looking for good minifig photos, and found this ebay seller (no, I'm not related to him ) who has very nice hires photos of many minifigs.

After having read....

http://www.ldraw.org/library/primref/#misctext

.....through these rules for the naming of text-primitives, I have discovered a mental conflict for me:

The identification of the style ("Bold", "Italic", "Condensed" .... and so on) remains to be missed.

and of course, and certainly, a combination of these different styles

How should that be handled?

As a recent example:

http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cg...peswn7.dat



| Type | Swiss BT | Number | "7" | Bold |

| type | sw | n | 7 | ? |



How should the "Bold" be included in the figuring?


"b" for Bold as an initial :   "b_typeswn7.dat"     <<< about like that?

or as appendix :                "typeswn7b.dat"        or better ...... 7_b?


It would be good to add a general definition to that, including a fixed letter choice for the styles.

Looking forward to a timely happy solution

Hello everyone

I'm looking for a part  59490 in any colour. 
The odd thing is that it does not seem to be made. I will try to do it myself 
but if there is anyone more capable I would be very gratefull.

Thank you

Hi all,

I was wondering how to make transparent stickers on transparent bricks with opaque print.
Like the windows on the side in set 40252. 



Reading this thread I don't quite follow
https://forums.ldraw.org/thread-22204.html

I thought I'd just make a png image with transparent background and the azure blue triangular shape.
But applying that and make the brick transparent makes the pattern transparent too.

Can I achieve an opaque pattern?

Greetings.  I was surprised to find that BB-8 (or BB-9E) weren't anywhere on a list, and neither were the base parts.  If someone is board, no real need for it, just some pieces that would be good to have done.
