  LDCad 1.5 (win+linux)
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2016-01-23, 22:57 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (21)

Hello All,

I think the last beta was stable enough to allow a definitive 1.5 version.

Therefore this version only includes some minor bug fixes / tweaks.

I did manage to add MSAA anti-alias support though by merging it in from the 1.6 alpha version.

MSAA will only be applied on the LDraw renderings not the gui overlay. I've found out myself this can cause problems on some VGA drivers so make sure you have the latest ones installed. the old edge only aa is also still available but aa will default back to none when upgrading to this version.

I've also managed to add part snapping info for the new 2015-02 library, the car and support category bin groups parts.

The latest LDCad version (like always) can be downloaded from

http://www.melkert.net/LDCad/download

With this release done I'm going to concentrate on 1.6 which will include the following:

  • Region selection.
  • Macro scripting.
  • More animation scripting.
  • ROTSTEP support.
  • Hotkey management / reassignment.
  • Multi layer groups.

And might include
  • Buffer exchange support
  • Povray animation export
  • Blender animation export
  • Additional things suggested in the 1.6 suggestions thread.

But as always non is set in stone Smile

  Rotation icon in assembled callout in LPub3D
Posted by: Jaco van der Molen - 2016-01-22, 12:25 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (2)

When I choose "Add assembled image to parent page" at the end of a submodel a rotation icon is added to the callout.
Deleting or hiding it does not work.

The code seems to add correct:
0 !LPUB CALLOUT ROTATE_ICON DISPLAY LOCAL FALSE

These parts are both available here:

  Part 64867
Posted by: Merlijn Wissink - 2016-01-21, 21:31 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (10)

To my surprise, part 64867 isn't available in LDraw (yet).
I'm missing it for one of the mixels.

Anyone willing to make it? Smile

  LDraw Facebook Group
Posted by: Bill Ward - 2016-01-21, 18:26 - Forum: General LDraw.org Discussion - Replies (12)

For those who use Facebook, I've created a Group there for discussing LDraw related topics. Please join if you would like to participate.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/1711364279149819/

The intent is not to compete with these forums, but a lot of people may not know about the forums, or may be more active on Facebook, so it provides another venue to talk about LDraw.

Bill.

Rather than burrying this kind of questions in LDCad new version announcement threads I figured out it might be interesting to create a specific thread...

  Lego on "The Daily Show"

On a segment of Comedy Central's "Daily Show" They had a part about Lego. Apparently they give a better return on investment than gold.
