  LDCad Flex object bug report
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2019-04-29, 20:28 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (6)

I'm getting an odd error when I edit my custom flex axle  in a certain way. Attached is a test case file.

Step to reproduce:
- Open test.ldr
- Enter nested mode
- Click on either control point
- Hit Ctrl-R to enter rotation
- Enter an arbitrary number into the rotation field
- Hit accept and notice odd output

  error w/ File Check tool
Posted by: Franklin W. Cain - 2019-04-28, 5:48 - Forum: Help - No Replies

When using the PT File Check tool ("http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptfilecheck.cgi"), I get the following error message when I want it to verify my version of an already existing (i.e. Official) file: 

Quote:Error

Filename (30367cps0) must be in 8.3 format.

Now, since file 30367cps0.dat is already in the parts inventory, that means this error message can not be correct.  

Can someone please update this tool to take into account that filenames are no longer restricted to the old DOS "8.3" limitation?  

Thanks, 
Franklin

  Some part snapping observations
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2019-04-26, 21:12 - Forum: Parts Tracker Discussion - Replies (11)

Hello all,

While working on the LDCad snapping info for the 1802 library I noticed a couple of issues relating to parts fitting together etc.

I thought it best to share them in a single thread for discussion / corrections.


- Window pane 30046.dat doesn't seem to fit 30044.dat, its pins are to high.

- door u9371.dat seems to be 2 ldu too small, to fit u9370, height wise

- Shouldn't the front hole in kayak 29110 be 4 or 2 ldu instead of 3 so it fits something useful?

Given that 30367cps0.dat exists, I'm using its code to work up two additional models, as shown in the attached images.  

(Front view): 
   

(Rear view): 
   

I'm posting the MPD file I'm using for my notes, in case any of you would like to look at them.  

.dat   30367c p sXX.dat (Size: 106.35 KB / Downloads: 1)

My question to you all is, do you think these files are ready to be submitted to the Parts Tracker?  ;-)  

Thanks,

My reviews today seem to be taking about five or so minutes before they are properly showing in the Parts Tracker.  

Is any one else seeing this problem?

  Jedi Fighters (75214 / 07661)
Posted by: Franklin W. Cain - 2019-04-20, 20:22 - Forum: MOCs (My Own Creations) - Replies (3)

One of the LDraw projects I've been working on is a modular suite of Jedi Starfighters with Hyperdrive Booster Ring.  (As you can see over in my Gallery at BrickLink: https://www.bricklink.com/v3/studio/publ...idUser=373 )

I've come up with the variations of the Delta-7 Aethersprite (from Ep. 2; from official set 75214) and Eta-2 Actis (from Ep. 3; from official set 7661) Starfighters that I like, and I wanted to share them with you all.  ;-)  

Thanks, 
Franklin
