Hi all, I hope someone can help me with the issue below. Raised the question already on the Eurobricks forum but maybe someone could help here as well.

I'm building a C model of the 42029 pickup using Ldcad 1.5 and I was planning to create instructions with Lpub3D. I made the mistake of not testing my .mpd during the building process with Lpub3D, so I've realised towards the end that the file cannot be opened, Lpub3D crashes when I try to open the file (Lpub3d***.exe has stopped working). As I did not have any other troubleshooting ideas I started to remove submodels and steps in my mpd going backwards to see if I can find the problematic part.
As it turned out the problem is not that simple - different versions of Lpub3D on different operating systems can open different versions of my file.

E.g. version with 8 submodels - opens with Win10/Lpub3d 2.0.14 / opens with Win7/Lpub3d 2.0.14 / opens with Win10/Lpub3d 2.0.14
version with 11 submodels - crashes with Win10/Lpub3d 2.0.14 / opens with Win7/Lpub3d 2.0.14 / opens with Win10/Lpub3d 1.3.4
version with 21 submodels - crashes with all versions (nearly complete model has 60 submodels)

Due to this inconsistency I could not find a single part or submodel causing the issue - above a certain complexity all versions of Lpub3D crashes.

I'm sure Lpub3d supposed to handle a model with ~1000 pieces, so I don't know at this point how to change my file to make it work. Any advise or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. I've linked the different versions of the files if someone would be kind enough to have a look.

Hoi Trevor,

Would it be possible to make it so that one can refresh the cache for only one page or only one assembly image?
When working with large models and multistep pages it can be a bit awkward to refresh everything every time I make an adjustment.

Thanks.

Jaco


P.S. All features work splendid now in the latest version. Thanks for that!

Guys,

I'm preparing the 2016-01 where I added LICreator. I would appreciate if you could test it a little bit:

Thanks, w.

I've had challenges searching for parts in the parts bin. At one point I had it working and was able to find parts by number or partial description. I can't seem to do that anymore regardless of how I set the options in the search.

Any pointers?

I've attached a screenshot of the current options which won't return a part when I search for a known part number.

Hi all,

What is the difference (if there is any) between

http://brickset.com/parts/design-21731

and

http://brickset.com/parts/design-93274



Part 93274 does exist in LDraw, 21731 does not.
Can we create an alias for 93274 like 21731?

I got bored and coded up a generator to make PBG file from Bricklink inventories.

It is very basic.  It translates BL colors to LDraw colors but does no part number validation. I may polish it up in which case I'll move it to an ldraw.org address.

You can find it here:

You can download Bricklink set inventories here:

Note: My generator only works with tab delimited files not XML.

Guys,

I never dreamed something like this could ever happen. I asked for changing my minor to my full name on my Paypal account and after a few weeks where nothing happened beside continuous requests for more data  I've got the following mail:

Could anyone submit this part to the parts tracker? I can't log in there anymore.

There are different variants, for example here with a white frame: Peeron picture
But mine just has a thin black frame.

Do we add the BL part number as a keyword if it differs from the LDraw number?  If not, I think we should since Peeron is effectively dead and BL is the only game in town as far as set inventories go.

Do we have the parts for this guy?
