  3079bps9 without blue color
Posted by: Stephan Meisinger - 2013-12-23, 18:19 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (5)

Hi,

I noticed the offical file 3079bps9 is using "blue" for the instruments. The part was used in blue and yellow. The yellow parts don't have blue elements. I changed all references in the instruments to match color code 16.

For me the part now looks like the real world part. Please consider changing the offical file according to the my attachment.

Thanks

  Unknown model commands/comments
Posted by: Michael Horvath - 2013-12-23, 4:21 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (10)

There are a number of commands in the attached file. They were added by Tore Eriksson before I started working on Datsville.

Code:
0 !COLOUR red-brown CODE 70 VALUE #694027 EDGE 0 ALPHA 255
0 !COLOUR medium-stone CODE 71 VALUE #A3A2A4 EDGE 0 ALPHA 255
0 !COLOUR dark-stone CODE 72 VALUE #635F61 EDGE 15 ALPHA 255
0 EXTRACT
0 !LDSWITCH DEFINE TOWNPEEP Inline
0 !LDSWITCH TOWNPEEP
0 !LDSWITCH CASE Inline
0 !LDSWITCH CASE Use
0 !LDSWITCH End

What are these commands for? Can they be safely removed?

  Mobile Template
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2013-12-22, 19:03 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (8)

I'm experimenting with a mobile-friendly template. Right now it'll look quite different from the default color scheme but this will change as I play around some more.

  Time to say ... thank you !
Posted by: Arthur Sigg - 2013-12-21, 18:19 - Forum: MOCs (My Own Creations) - Replies (2)

More than a year ago I jumped into a MOC project (my second one, please be lenient) which was initiated by a planned village festival with the motto Bear, including a small Lego exhibition. Spontaneously I decided to go for a MOC based on a memento from a earlier U.S. trip, a Ironwood carving "Mother and Baby Bear".

Some of you helped to tackle the project and bring it forward

Project "Transparent Envelope"
XML to LDR

And this were the steps we were going through:

(1) Laser scan (STL mesh) done by a third party
(2) LSculpt from Bram Lambrecht (converts a triangle mesh into a skin of 1x1 plates)
(3) Splitting up Mother/Baby, remodeling the cutting region and artefacts with MLCad
(4) Coloring all visible bricks with MLCad, throwing away all needless inner parts
(generated by LSculpt, reducing the total number of bricks to one third !)
(5) Organizing skin plates to "layers" with MLCad
(6) With MLCad for each layer: Replacing skin markers by bricks/plates
(in addition constructing a inner structure to stabilize the model)
(7) Visualizing building results stepwise with LDView (MLCad didn't the job well)
Producing partlists and snapshots with LDView
(8) Generating building instructions with LPub
(not too perfect, working doc to build the Bear Group in reality)
(9) Building the Bear Group in reality by my wife Laura
The virtual cobbling together of 25,825 Lego bricks not succeed without errors,
so I had to do some corrections following Laura's advises :-)

Anyone know what the official file names are for these minifig parts? Google doesn't turn up much that is useful. Thanks.

Thumbs Up 3741 Plant Flower Stem
Posted by: Christoph Mierowski - 2013-12-20, 18:25 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (4)

This is not directly a part request- more a request for a clarification of this issue:

I find 3741 Plant Flower Stem as 3741A.DAT, but no 3741B.DAT or so in the library. There is also no other version existing in real life. And there is 3741.DAT which seems to be obsolete (it also in the part name). But why is this obsolete part still existing?
And in all models where I used 3741.DAT this remains this version. But I think when there is only one real life version this should be used.
Short: Shouldn't  the obsolete shape replaced with the actual one?. This would mean deleting 3741.DAT and renaming 3741A.DAT to 3741.DAT.
Why has this not happend? Is there a good reason?
When modeling official sets, should then always the 3741A.DAT be used?

Hope this can cleared up
