I just "finished" the first step of the "leg rework process"
The corrected hips+legs are attached to this post. The legs do not use subfiles at the moment.
edit: I updated all files on 2015-11-30. edit2: The files are now on the parts tracker! (3815, 3816, 3817)
Here are the test scenarios from Magnus Forsbergs post
0 // The same set-up in real parts makes it clear that the current 3816s01.dat is really wrong.
0 // It is possible to place this mock up on a 3023 in real parts, but not in ldraw-parts
1 44 60 40 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 3023.dat
Next steps:
- Create the subfiles
- Project existing patterns to the new legs (and fix possible pattern errors)
I estimate that it will take 3 to 4 months to transfer all patterns to the new leg.
Following the problem mentionned here and after discussions with Mikeheide about MPDCenter, I think that OMR specifications should be updated to make it clear that unofficial parts MUST be included in OMR conform files.
It is more or less implied by this paragraph of the specification but it should be made much more explicit
Quote:Unofficial parts are allowed to be used. The filename of the unofficial part is subject to the following naming rules:
<Set Number>[-<Optional Qualifier>] - <Unofficial Part Number>.dat
Where:
<Set Number> is the the number printed on the model's container.
<Optional Qualifier> is a sequential number, starting with 1, added if there is more than one set that could be assigned <Set Number>.
<Unofficial Part Number> is the unofficial part number assigned in that very moment.
Example:
33956.dat would be renamed to 3345 - 33956.dat or 3345-1 - 33956.dat.
So this is my first attempt at building in MLCad. I intend to get this to OMR spec if possible. By the way, how do I embed an image in a post instead of just making it an attachment?
Two problems so far:
- How to model the string on the rear winch
- Positioning of the rear facing gun and the round transparent brick as this does not align with the normal Lego geometries
I think I also need to rebuild in line with some of the sub assemblies in the instructions.
I'm new here and taking in an interest as I want to build some models then animate them in Blender.
Anyway - looking at the official models pack I opened the Front End Loader in MLCad and noticed a bug in the model - the pneumatic rams are not correctly located. MLCad gave me a warning dialog as I opened the file to say one or more parts has been upgraded to new versions so not sure if this is the cause.
What is the correct process for reporting this - I'm not yet feeling proficient to tackle fixing the model myself just yet.
Creating a File Header you can choose either “Model” or “unofficial Model” :
0 !LDRAW_ORG Model -OR- 0 !LDRAW_ORG Unofficial_Model
May anybody give a definition or a link for “Model” respectively “unofficial Model” with respect to OMR Compliance?
I failed to find the answer on LDraw.
