  [LDPatternCreator] Release 1.6.1 (Post-Processing Fix)
Posted by: Nils Schmidt - 2016-02-20, 13:21 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (7)

Hello,

here is a new bugfix for LDPatternCreator with one new feature!

Download and install the latest LDPatternCreator release directly from sourceforge.net.

Change log:

New feature:

  • You can now choose wether to use pattern slicing or not (SlicerPro post processing, default setting is not to slice)

Fixed bugs:
  • Fixed a little memory leak
  • The post processing info was not stored correctly (Rectifier, Unificator, ...)
  • Fixed possible dirty filename and path settings for "Open File" and "Save File As"
  • The LPC-Unificator could crash if the metadata contained linetypes 2 and/or 5

As always, I included a short readme.htm in the installation directory.


Cheers & Leg Godt


Nils

  WeDo 2.0 electronics
Posted by: Jetro de Château - 2016-02-17, 21:55 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (25)

Do any of you have the new WeDo 2.0 set?
I'd love to have LDraw files for the new electronics. (All the other elements appear to be in the LDraw tracker already)

Particularly I'm interested in the 19071 hub and the 21980 motor (the motor is very similar to the PF M motor, but it only has 3 pin holes at the front and 4 studs at the top).

Much less important are the other elements:
20841tilt sensor
20844 motion sensor

As far as I can tell those are identical to the sensors from WeDo 1. However, these elements also use new cables (6 wires) and connectors.

  Rubber band messed up after saving, closing and opening
Posted by: Jaco van der Molen - 2016-02-16, 19:47 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (7)

Hi folks,

Sorry to have been of the radar a bit now that we really got things going discussing LPub3D, LDCad and all interesting stuff.
I've been a bit busy with other stuff then LEGO and LDraw... :-(

However, I got around again practicing LDCad an decided to try to model this cute little technic set:
http://brickset.com/sets/8203-1/Rover-Discovery
It has a rubber band rather typically shaped by the way it is in the model.
I tried to model this band like it would fit the model (not the way I want exactly yet).
See this screencapture video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo_lp3S9NrA
It looks nice but when I save the file, close it and re-open it, the band is totally messed up.
Doing some work on it again to get it a bit like the way it was, saving, closing and re-opening it even messes up further.

How can I solve that?
Is this the same issue that I had with the small minifig chain assembly I posted before? Is the band simply to small to calculate?

Then: how do I create a rubber band that mimics this band the way it is in the model?

Thanks.

  Datheader downloading files to prog folder
Posted by: Willy Tschager - 2016-02-16, 12:38 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (7)

Mike,

when Datheader downloads the category.txt, ldconfig.ldr, primitivescale.txt files it will download them to prog folder and obviously they end up under:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore

could you please look into it.

Thx, w.

Hi,

had anyone running LDCalc successfully under Windows 10. Tried tweak compatibility, rights, turned of antivirus, created a fake LDCalcIni.xml ... no chance.

Do I need some special runtimes?

  LPub3D - show every instance of an element
Posted by: Jetro de Château - 2016-02-14, 18:55 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (3)

I'm working on BIs for WeDo models. These models are typically for (very) young builders and the instructions LEGO provide show every instance of the elements used (e.g. if there are 2 white 1x4 plates, the PLI shows 2 plates). Can this be done in LPub3D?

  [MPDCenter] Issue with LDView Preference option
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2016-02-14, 18:03 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - No Replies

A minor issue with setting the path for LDView. MPDCenter wants the 32-bit executable name (LDView) but I have the 64-Bit version installed. (LDView64).

  8482/8483 CyberMaster Parts
Posted by: Christian Maglekær - 2016-02-14, 0:13 - Forum: Part Requests - No Replies

Hallo people.

I have begun to make the CyberMaster models, but I have discovered that are missing a lot of the parts from the set (Or I just can not find them).

The easy ones, new colors for the Touch sensor:

879c02, 879c03, 879c04

The difficult but important:
x429c01 Electric, Antenna with Yellow Tip and 71797 Cybermaster Unit

I've made a dummy of the device, it might help with the size of it.
I have a broken device lying around, I have discovered that the battery cover has part number 32093 (Just for info).

Other parts:
32094 Vehicle, Forklift Load Bin, Stickers, print and mechanical Arm for Technic figure.

I know it's a monumental task, so I want to thank in advance to those who contribute to the work.

Best regards Christian
