  5-48 aring or ering
Posted by: Peter Blomberg - 2025-08-25, 14:13 - Forum: Parts Authoring - No Replies

I need something narrow between a cylinder and custom quads. The sweep is 5-48.

Is it better to create a 5-48 aring or ering?

The duplo skateboard BL 2319c01 has two numbers on it; 2319 and 346M2. Is the other number an assembly number?

  5-fold symmetry?
Posted by: Peter Blomberg - 2025-08-22, 1:47 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (5)

I'm working on the duplo flower with 5 Leaves and Top Stud 84195. I've fixed most of the issues with the original mesh, but...
I don't know if I should submit it as one part or subdivide it into 5 (10) repeatable subparts. One of the challenges is rotation. The original mesh is not aligned with any axis (see top view in picture), so it would be very difficult to create clean symmetrical breaks (normally I'd use the mirroring over an axis). The angle of rotation between parts would be 72 degrees, which would require six decimals in the transformation matrix. Given these challenges, would it be acceptable to "ignore" the 5-fold symmetry and just not subfile at all?

  Parsing LDraw
Posted by: Max Murtazin - 2025-08-20, 18:04 - Forum: Help - Replies (3)

*sigh*

Okay, I've probably been it at it many times and probably even asked some questions on this topic before, but, alas, I'm at it again - trying to build an LDraw file format parser in C#. Why C#? Tl;dr: I need it for other stuff, and that stuff uses C#.

Well, the question itself: How does one even go around effectively parsing LDraw? This topic is a bit confusing to me due to the recursiveness (I guess that's what the word would be) of the format. My current approach is like this:
1. Read through all of the file, store all the faces in an array, store all the submodels in a separate array
2. Go through the submodel array, go to step 1 for each of them
3. Once the process is out of this recursive mess, "resolve" each submodel by applying the transform to it's triangles and adding them to the submodel's parent
4. Done, I guess?

It is very simple and doesn't account for, like, any meta or other stuff that could be important, but it should be enough for the start. I'm just not sure if this approach is good, or how it possibly could be improved

Also, I know I can read stuff like LDView source code, but I'm really bad at reading code made by other people, so it would probably take way more time than just asking it here

  Duplo drawer height
Posted by: Peter Blomberg - 2025-08-19, 7:51 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (4)

It seems that the duplo drawer 4891 is 2.6 LDU too high compared to physical part. It doesn't fit the 52 LDU slots in cupboards.

Furthermore, the origin seems to be 3 LDU above the part. Can we live with that?

  Angle of arrow tip on Minifig Harpoon 57467
Posted by: Jaco van der Molen - 2025-08-18, 19:04 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (12)

Hi all,

Why is the angle of the arrow tip on Minifig Harpoon 57467 not straight?
It seems at an 11 degree angle?
