  Motor animation
Posted by: NEMOOZ - 2018-07-29, 19:04 - Forum: Rendering Techniques - Replies (5)

Hi everyone,
I am wondering how is it possible to animate motor in LDCad?
I found great LDCAD animation on youtube :

I found Scripting API on Melkert website 

Here the model:
[Image: Motor_animation_view.png]

I am able to rotate the camshaft with this script:

Code:
--[[Sripted by Co for NEMOOZ]]
function register()

--****************************************************************************************
-- "Dissolve" script makes parts disappear progressively from the model ("Build" inverse)
--****************************************************************************************
    local ani=ldc.animation('Motor')

   --Set the length of the animation in seconds
   ani:setLength(10)
    
   ani:setEvent('start', 'motorStart')
   ani:setEvent('frame', 'motorFrame')
end

function motorStart()
     mainSf=ldc.subfile()
end

function motorFrame()

   local ani=ldc.animation.getCurrent()
   local ori=ldc.matrix()
 
   local angle=1800*ani:getFrameTime()/ani:getLength()
   
   local ax1=mainSf:getRef('axe_motor.ldr')
   ori:setRotate(angle, 1, 0, 0)
   ax1:setOri(ori)
end

register()


I searched the forums and found nothing on that particular subject.

Regards

  Models referenced by file path - Who is Willy?
Posted by: Alexander U. - 2018-07-26, 5:51 - Forum: General LDraw.org Discussion - Replies (2)

I have installed the optional LEGO Model LDraw files.

This is how the Fort Legoredo looks like: https://i.imgur.com/m9RkjRE.png

Certain Technic models (e.g. 42039) look even worse.

The issue seems to be caused by model references that do not resolve to a file; one of the paths is shown in the tooltip.

So: Who is Willy? Big Grin

  Brick, Arch 1 x 3 x 3 #13965 aka the Bond Aston Fenders
Posted by: Ryan Hicks - 2018-07-21, 21:55 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (2)

Hey hey Ldraw... I had a quick look and seems this one's not come up in the requests forum or already been done in the parts catalog:

Brick Arch, 1 x 3 x 3 : Bricklink link
[Image: 13965.png]


Recently used as the fender arches on the Creator Expert James Bond Aston Martin DB5 and last year's London bus. Will certainly be useful for other Creator-scale vehicles. 

Much appreciated, cheers.

  Call for LDCad 1.6 bug reports
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2018-07-20, 17:33 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (18)

Hello all,

I decided to do a 1.6c version of LDCad as I've gathered a couple of small issues making it worth while.

But I would like to address as much as possible as this might be the final 1.x version.

These are the known issues:
- Copy goes wrong when multiple instances are involved of which not all are really selected (e.g. some are hidden trough buffer exchange).
- ctrl + 'plus' or 'min' hotkeys don't work.
- Animation mode does not apply buffer exchange visibility.

And some minor tweaks/additions
- Hotkeys for zooming and panning
- Allow higher and unlimited max script execution time
- (very)Basic export (probably CSV) for part bin contents. Mostly for use with the "All parts used in the current model" bin.


Please feel free to report any additional issues and or minor tweaks.

  Website is Broken
Posted by: Ogilvie Maurice - 2018-07-20, 5:45 - Forum: Help - Replies (6)

Hi! I was wondering if the website is broken for anybody else. I would like to download all the parts files but the website won't let me download anything! It appears like this: here
Is there a mirror download or something? 
If it helps, in the HTML file I think it says that the links were removed in the new CMS made simple version. Please respond soon!
