I came across the following issue while authoring the Helicarrier stickers. The large '64' sticker has lost of bolts which are best done with primitives and this amound to roughly 200 to be used. Now I worked on the file for a few days on and of, saved/quite LDPC multiple times and it always saved the primitives.

For some unknown reason it is not saving the primitives anymore, when I open the files, the primitives are converted to triangles...

Has anyone experienced this?

I was pretty sure that Fabuland car engine parts had been already LDrawn, but I can't find them... Can someone confirm they are missing - or that I need new glasses?

Hi,

Hi,

I hope that these may be the last parts to complete 76042 Helicarrier.

If someone has the sticker for 76042 Helicarrier, make it ldr part and upload, please.

Thanks you very much

Based on an idea of Magnus Forsberg [MagFors] I have updated DATHeader.

We have an article that clearly states that leading or / and trailing zeros are not allowed in good files.

For example the current file p\4-4ring1.dat contains the following line, that is not correct:
4 16 -1.8478 0 0.7654 -0.9239 0 0.3827 -0.7071 0 0.7071 -1.4142 0 1.41420

This is clearly a task for DATHeader .

DATHeader now detects this and also can correct this error.


If you have any other wish for DATHeader, please let me know and I am looking what can be done.

You can download DATHeader as usually from DATHeader homepage.

Greetings all,

Could anyone provide me with guidance as to how I can author parts myself? The parts I need are not in LDD, I don't have LDraw experience, and I don't have a 3D scanner.

Thank you,

Hi,

I'm back
There has been personal study abroad over 1 year and I deliberated not to access lego sites to focus on my study.

First of all, I have to express my condolence to Sergio Reano who had developed SR 3D Builder.
SR3D led me to virtual LEGO world by its outstanding functions, especially making technic model and showing actual movement.
I really loved it and love it. Thank you very much Sergio. Please, rest in peace.

I would like to make 76042 Helicarrier as the first model this year.
But I found that the below part has not be made, even though it was released four years ago in actual lego part.

95227 Boat Hull Large Middle 8 x 16 x 2 1/3 with 5 Holes

If some is available, please, make it and upload.

Thanks for reading

Hi,

as you might know I have added parts to the MLCad.ini file that drives the MLCad minifig generator in MLCad, LeoCAD or Bricksmith, which do not come with a "Minifig" statement such as 75° slopes or bars. I'd like to add some more of those, so please forward your wishes which parts you wanna see in the generator.

w.

This question is about MLCad 3.40.

I know that MLCad settings are stored in 2 files mainly, which sit in its program folder:
- MLCad.ini - contains its main application settings, including folders to look in for parts, settings for its built-in LSYNTH support, settings for the Minifig generator etc.
- MLCad.grp - contains the configuration of its parts tree which allows to group parts together into groups by their name

However, MLCad creates a binary file named MLCAD.cfg in my LDRAW folder additionally
when I run it. It re-creates the file when I delete it.

Does anyone know what this file contains, what its purpose is?
