Hello all,

I'm working on some new scripts for the upcoming LDCad 1.6c release.

Just some stuff I think could be useful or people asked about through emails.

To get some of them working I also expanded the api with minor new functions etc.

Anyhow just wanted to give everyone the opportunity to request additional scripts/macros/api extensions.

Things I'm working on:

- "MLCad hide" meta toggle on the selection.
- Select all "MLCad hide" content in current (non nested) model.
- Move the current building step's content down/up.

Any additional suggestions are welcome.

Guys I'm using ldpattern and i have summited some models. Sometimesi got this type of reviews letting me that 2 or 3 devimals its enough. What does it means and how do i do this?

To many decimals. 2, or 3, is enough.

I try to project a pattern on a surface using SlicerPro within LD Part Editor but I can't figure out how it works while it seems to me I follow the instructions.

In attachment to this thread you will find my file and I try to project the plan pattern on the red squares. So I select the whole pattern in a view, then I control click on a view set on Top, I open the tool SlicerPro and click on OK then a progress bar appear which goes quickly and nothing appear.

Could you please let me know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!

I am trying to design a floatplane that would use these hulls as its pontoons, and would be most grateful to have these parts available in LDraw.

i was bored, and i did some reseach about the last 5000 submits on part tracker. here are some numbers i found.

Did 82.8% of the part tracker submit. they did the hard work.

Guys yesterday i spent hours making the following pattern.

btw i have spent tons of hours to make this pattern. and i have just realize that it was already available on part tracker.

i was looking something new to upload, and check on rebricable, this brick did not had any ldraw part assigned and i did not check on

http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptpatterns.cgi?p=3039


grrrrrrrrr.......

regarding this issue for future designs. the idea its to make the patterns with the less ammount of triangles as possible ?

any recommendation to add? in the LQ version of the pattern you can see some vertex have TONS of triangles that are attached to them. its this ok? or its not recommended to have many triangles attached to a vertex?

note: yellow lines should be color 16. i know now.

A day or two ago, when I wanted to upload a new model to my Gallery at Brick Link, the Studio application updated.  And ever since, I have not been able to upload my files any longer to my gallery there.  

Any one here have any ideas as to what is wrong, please?  

Thanks, 
Franklin

Hello,

I can't find the Boost Hub Part that is supposed to be in the unofficial parts directory of Ldraw. I know that it's there, just can't see it in Ldraw.

Checked the environment variable, noticed that there was an error so changed it from C:\Users\Public\Documents\Ldraw
to C:\Users\Public\Public Documents\Ldraw,  but no difference. I wonder where LDRAWDIR is set? 

I checked the MLCAD.ini file and it looks ok. Search directories are fine.

Not sure how to get the BOOST Hub into the model. Any help appreciated.

I downloaded "parts/26910.dat
Electric Power Functions 2.0 Boost Move Hub"  into the official parts directory and unofficial and I still cannot see the hub. I found this part on http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptscan.cgi?q=boost

Twelve years ago I spent over 2 years making a lego movie with Pov-Ray 3.1 and Anton's libraries.  I made the original Alpha Team characters and based the movie on them.  Now I would like to go at it again and using 3.7, I'm struggling to get those libraries working again.  I hate to start over with some of the other tools I see mentioned, so is there some way I can get everything working with 3.7?

Yes I could go back to 3.1, but the render times with the 64-bit version are so much faster, and I'm sure there's other features I haven't even had time to explore.

The error I'm seeing in minifigs_official.lib implies that "yellow_tex" isn't defined, even though it's defined in materials.lib, which I include before I include minifigs_official.
