  Are these in LDraw?
Posted by: Ahmed Elhassan - 2016-03-15, 6:59 - Forum: General LDraw.org Discussion - Replies (1)

I have been trying to duplicate Lego set 75038, Anakin's Jedi Interceptor in LDRaw. I am at the step where you need to put in the two "springshooters". Only I haven't the slightest clue if they exist in LDraw. They are LEGO part number 6048898, bricklink part number 15301c01. Can someone tell me if they can be found in LDRaw and where?

  LDD Update to 4.3.9
Posted by: Merlijn Wissink - 2016-03-14, 15:57 - Forum: General LDraw.org Discussion - Replies (10)

It seems there's a new LDD update. There's not a lot more information than that at the moment, but it's obvious that it includes a lot of new parts. Maybe this webpage needs an update soon? Wink

  Upload 3039pcb2.dat to partstracker
Posted by: Jaco van der Molen - 2016-03-08, 13:05 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (1)

I think I need to address Philo:
Can you upload part 3039pcb2.dat to the tracker, please?

Where Grey in "Slope Brick 45 2 x 2 with Radar and Disk Slot Grey Pattern" needs to change to "Black".

You once modified it for me from the official 3039pcb.dat which has indeed Grey pattern.

Thanks again!

  Erroneuos Official Parts
Posted by: Gerald Lasser - 2016-03-08, 7:28 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (2)

When I recently recycled parts of an already official part I really did not check the dimensions or compatibility with the grid/studs.

I think we should collect them in a thread for a correction if the immediate attention is not possible.

  [LDPartEditor] 0.8.5 Beta Released
Posted by: Nils Schmidt - 2016-03-07, 22:12 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (41)

Hi,

with a little overdue of one month*... here is the LDPartEditor 0.8.5 Beta release!
I will now focus on tutorial videos since this version should be stable enough to work with (though its still a beta).

[Image: imgDuke2.png]
You can download LDPE from this page:
http://nilsschmidt1337.github.io/ldparteditor/

Changelog:

With this release you will be able to...

  • ...use up to 9 decimal places for rounding (coordinates + matrix). [requested by Gerald]
  • ...open the part in the 3D editor from the text editor window (orange "3D" button) [requested by at least two users]
  • ...use "save as..." to store files under a new filename (text editor only) [requested by Magnus]
  • ...use a button for single vertex manipulation ("SyncEdit") in the text editor [requested by Willy]
  • ...benefit from a new "how-to-use" description for the SlicerPro2 tool.

The following critical issues were fixed:
  1. Rectifier created rect#.dat primitives when "Split" and "SlicerPro2" were used.
  2. Rectifier created rect-prims that were scaled in three dimensions.
  3. Fixed an issue which was related to the parsing of the !HISTORY meta command
  4. Fixed a null pointer issue with "Add Quad" and other "Add..." functions.
  5. Fixed incorrect cursor movement when single vertex manipulation was active.
  6. Fixed a GUI access issue, which occured on drag&drop with text editor tabs.
  7. Fixed a random null pointer issue, which could disable the tab from the text editor window when more than one tab was opened.
  8. In some rare cases when a flat subfile was scaled in X/Y or Z and the transformation matrix contained more than one space as seperator between the values, the corresponding "Quick Fix" was not able fix the scaling.

The program was tested intensively with "real world" files.
However, it is still a beta version and something can go wrong in about 100.000 lines of code.

Make sure that you choose the right architecture for your OS and Java Virtual Machine (JVM) (64bit or 32bit).
A short guide how to check if a 64bit JVM is installed on your system is located at the bottom of this message.

  1. Download the zip-Archive
  2. Extract the archive content to the location of your choice
  3. On windows, double-click "run.bat" to start LPE.
  4. On linux/mac, you have to excecute the shell script "run.sh" to start LPE.

Please note that this software is in the beta stage. Although, LPE 0.8.5 was carefully tested and developed, there are already known issues for this release. There is a potential risk of data loss.

You can search for updates if you do the following steps:

  1. On windows, double-click "update.bat" to search for updates.
  2. On linux/mac, you have to excecute the shell script "update.sh".

LPE is a 3D CAD application: The overall system requirements are higher. While I recommend to use a powerful 64-bit multicore system, it could be possible, to run LPE on older machines as well.

System Requirements:

Minimum System Requirements:
  • Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.8
  • OpenGL 2.1 compatible Graphics Card
  • Operating System (32/64bit): Windows [XP; Vista; 7 or newer], Mac OS X [>=10.6], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=10.4]
  • CPU: Multicore-Processor e.g. Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Athlon II (>2.0Ghz)
  • RAM: 2.5GB
  • Video-Memory: 512 MB
  • Free Disk Space: 100 MB

Recommended Requirements:
  • Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 1.8
  • Operating System (64bit): Windows 7, Mac OS X [>=10.6], Linux [e.g. Ubuntu Linux >=10.4]
  • CPU: Multicore-Processor with 4 cores (or more)
  • RAM: >4 GB
  • Video-Memory: >512 MB
  • Free Disk Space: 512 MB


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to check your JVM version (32- or 64-bit):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can try on the command line:

Code:
java -d64 version

If it's not a 64-bit version, you'll get a message that looks like:

Code:
This Java instance does not support a 64-bit JVM. Please install the desired version.

In general, I recommend to install the 64-bit version of the JVM for Java 8.

  [MPDCenter] - Bugs and Improvements
Posted by: Damien Roux - 2016-03-07, 21:43 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - Replies (4)

Hi there,

While OMRizing my set collection I found a few "bugs" in MPDCenter.

To reproduce, use the file attached.

Here is what I do:

Right click on 1714 - Surveillance Scooter.ldr -> Set Name: entry to "Surveillance Scooter.ldr"
Right click on the renamed Surveillance Scooter.ldr -> Change description from file name.

Now I want to edit the header :
I set everything in the Header dialog, click "Build new header" and "Apply".
"Do you want to copy athor etc to all other ldr in this mdp?" -> Yes
"Are you sure to copy the below header data to all .ldr files in this mpd-file?" -> Yes
"Should I try to rename now all files for OMR conformity?" -> Yes

Now comes the bugs:

The ldr "Spaceship - Rocket 2 - Light.ldr" got renamed to "1714 Rocket 2Light", instead of the desired "1714 - Spaceship - Rocket 2 - Light.ldr"
It's losing the .ldr, the "Spaceship" and some spaces. I would say this happen if the name has more than one time the "-" character.

The description of the ldr "1714 - Spaceship - Rocket 1.ldr" is now "1714 - Spaceship - Rocket 1" instead of the desire "Spaceship - Rocket 1".
It's keeping the set number. I would say this happen if the name has only one "-" character.

The header is not the same everywhere, the first ldr shows empty lines above and under the !THEME statement while the other subfiles don't. I would put those empty line everywhere to keep the same formatting and also because I find it better for readability.


Now some suggestions:

Could we have an option on right clicking a ldr to move it directly above or under a certain ldr? As MPD center rechecks the OMR conformity each time I click "Up" or "Down" it take ages to move files on large sets.

In order to clean up the file, would it be possible to have always 2 empty lines between ldr files. Meaning that it should remove the existing lines a the end of a ldr whatever how many there are, and only add 2 empty lines.
