I have created a number of what I would consider sub-models that I wish to combine into one larger model. The problem is that some of these sub-models are MPD files with their own sub-models, while others are the LDR files I would want. Is there a way to combine multiple MPDs together (since it would be simple to create MPD files out of the LDR files)?

I've spent a large amount of time creating these files (and perfecting the instructions for each of these sub-models), and now when I am finally ready to put these together to create instructions for the final assembly, I have run into the issue that I cannot figure out how combining the parts can even work.

As I'm newish to Ldraw, I only figured out that these sub-models I had created were of different file-types when I attempted to import all of them into one master file, but was unable to find several of the files needed, and realized this is because some are .mpd and others are .ldr

Is there a good method for solving this issue and combining the files into one MPD as I'd like?

Thanks!

Hello, I am a new guy here.

May I ask, is the boat hull of 4031
released in ldraw? I found its no. is x447c01 from Peeron.com,
but this no. was not the hull in ldraw.

Thanks for the help in advance.

Hi all,

I was wondering if someone would be able to author 4085d which is lacking in the library?


Thanks a lot!

Hi,
based on this brick viewer, I have written a converter, that creates LDraw files from LDD mesh files (*.g).
I've solved the problem of the files with the g1, g2, etc. extensions. These are subparts for a model, that are colored differently or textured. My converter can merge these into a single file.
I've attached an example of a part, that was originally split into two.

If there's enogh interest, I'm willing to upload the sources to Github and create a somewhat user friendly version (currently it's a command line tool.)

Greetings

Thanks to the hard work of very many LDraw parts authors I have here an actual model of a 8564-1 Lehvak. Though, it seems to be missing a little something.

The Krana and the Krana holder pieces are still not modeled, and are the last Bohrok parts that are in such a state. Anyone got thoughts on how are we going to get the models for the Krana? The Bionicle masks in general seem like a nightmare to model. Perhaps that awesome 3D scanner of Philo's could get the mesh? It seems to have the design ID 42042, though note: there's 8 variants though Peeron only pictures 5 of them.

I still think we should congratulate ourselves, we sure have gotten a lot of parts done! I know the rubber band is also missing though that's because I don't know LSynth-fu.

I'm working on a set of Ferrari instructions and need the 58088 wheel cover.

Hi,

though not yet registered as a part submitter I felt the need to model some parts since my boys are quite addicted to Lego Chima.
In 11767 there is a wheel (11140) made from a metal, apparently tin, but I don't know it for sure.
What would be the appropriate color for this part? Any ideas?

I would like to know if there is a way to change the default 0.3 Bumps on slope parts (used to simulate the slope granularity) to an other value. As for me 1 Bumps would better fit for my renders but it seems that ldview automatically choose a value of 0.3.

Is there anyway to change that instead of manually editing the Pov-ray file ?
