Hello Parts Authors,

for my current project (Set 60504, Coast Guard Rescue Boat), I still need the following parts:

- 4245 (Boat, Hull Giant Bow 50 x 20 x 7, Base)
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cat...#T=C&C=167

and

- 4264 (Boat, Hull Giant Bow 50 x 20 x 7, Top)
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/cat...5#T=C&C=85

Both parts appear to have been released in 2023.
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any RAW files, only a reference to the LEGO Instructions app (102216).

I would be delighted if these two parts could be created.


Many thanks in advance and best regards,

Alfred

Hi,

I tried making the 4.5L axle by shortening the 5.5L axle but the new version of LDCAD crashes if you change a part externally then click to reload it in the LDCAD dialog box.

It should be easy enough, just make the end that does not have the stopper 1L shorter.

The other part is the 4th size of spike prime style wheel get get now, it is second largest. as opposed to XL M and S, this would be L

here is an image of it:

Does anyone have the raw .dat files for the following parts:

24484
24586
24588
25276
25277
25750
28587


I am fairly sure the they are on digitial-bricks.de, but I keep getting a 500 error when trying to access the site.

I noticed that the part I was making when I was using a metalic gold ring primative it doesn't get treated the same way as the metalic gold polygons.

Basically the ring primative shows up as metalic in LDView but the polygons don't.

That makes the ring primative very obviously stand out even when both are using the same colour code of 82.



So I could not use a ring primative instead but that would just be a workaround.

All the ring primatives in the dat are the same just the colour and size are obvously different

1 16 0 0 0 0.5 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0.5 4-4ring19.dat
1 484 0 0 0 0.5 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0.5 4-4ring18.dat
1 484 0 0 0 0.5 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0.5 4-4ring17.dat
1 82 0 0 0 0.5 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0.5 4-4ring16.dat

So I don't see why metalic gold should be any different to the others?  Either nothing should be treated as metal or both primatives and polygons need to be treated as metal not just one of the two since they are all the same colour.

I hope that there already is a raw part (I could not find it with the search).

Hey,

with this update I improved a few little things and Willy will be happy about the fact that 'helper lines' can be moved now.

Download and install the latest LDPatternCreator release directly from sourceforge.net.
Any previous version should be uninstalled first. Your program configuration will be preserved.

Change log:

New features:

• "Ungroup" colourises subparts/primitives in their chosen colour.
  
• It is now always possible to set the spline segment count when adding a spline.
  
• Helper lines and template lines can be moved.
  
• Added a shortcut to flip/rotate two selected triangles (Ctrl+F)
  
• The file's name shows up along the title in the very top bar.
  
• Added a helping tooltip for the "Triangle Auto-Completion" which explains the use of the CTRL and the cursor keys.
  
• Added a hint for "freezing the selection" when adding new objects.
  
• "2-4chrd" is added into the "Add Primitive" list
  
• "tndis" is added into the "Add Primitive" list.
  

• Missing overflow detection for large coordinates in the vertex window.
  

hi guys,

i'm looking for the complete zip download of both official and unofficial parts,  I want as much data as possible

i've found both
complete.zip - official
ldrawunf.zip  - unofficial?

am i missing anything?


there's about 654 files within ldrawunf.zip that also exists within complete.zip,  can i merge both safely?
i'd assume the overlap are unofficial parts which require official parts?


skimming the ~300 combined stickers i can't help but feel im missing some large repo... BrickLink lists nearly ~5,000 sheets
