Hi all,

This weekend I finished the first beta of LDCad 1.4, it took a bit more time than I planned but hopefully it's worth the wait.

Some new features are:

• Script based animation.
  
• Groups are now stored in the LDraw file.
  
• Updated GUI (font and some icons wise).
  
• Made it easier to interact with session mode's and options
  
• Experimental support for the LDraw texture meta (all three variants)
  

Hi,
I have found that step parts through the vertical but I need to fine tune it and the manual option is greyed out. I ma picking the edit -> rotate - Keyboard entry option.

Thoughts?

Thanks

Hi All,
Noob question (sorry) :with LPub, when I bring an models in with Base Plates, in the part list the base plate is upside down? In the construction list it is fine.

What am I missing?

Thanks

Quote:Line Termination

All lines in the file must use the standard DOS/Windows line termination of(carriage return/line feed). The file is permitted (but not required) to end with a. It is recommended that all LDraw-compliant programs also be capable of reading files with the standard Unix line termination of(line feed).

Here I am again Thanks a lot for making my previous request.
I would love to have 93081d also if its possible. Friends Accessories Flower with 6 Rounded Petals and Pin

I created a new topic since the old one was going to be more and more confusing and takes some time to load when displaying all messages at the same time.
Nevertheless, I am still targeting to release the version 0.8.0 Beta on Monday, 24 December 2014 edit: Tuesday, 7th April 2015
...and I just implemented a shader logic for chrome parts ;o)
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-4XXXJ...Shader.png

Done with SR3Dbuilder + LSynth + MLCad.
MPD built with MPDCenter. Should be OMR compatible.
Known errors: Missing stickers, Technic figure torsos has no pattern.
Cyborg figure has plain arms instead of a biomecanical ones, and a mockup for cyborg eye.
MPD file is here.

I have nearly completed the 42008 for Eric's Technicopedia and just in progress of adding the LSYNTH. There are four different types of LSYNTH generated parts necessary: PF-Cable, Pneumatic Hoses, Rigid Hoses and a String.

Generating the LSYNTH parts is no issue. I did them one by one, but then I noticed that LDView did not load the file properly and produced a hell lot of errors. When looking into the file I had literally thousands of lines just stating a position of 0, 0, 0 and "part unknown" the file explodes form 148k to 3 megabytes.

I noticed the following:
- Even if I have a completed LSYNTH in the file, another run of LSYNTH goes over it and generates the "empty" lines
- This seem to happen only for the "PNEUMATIC HOSE BEVELED", these sections get the additional lines
- no additional lines were added to the "Hose Rigid" and the "PF Cable"

Does anybody know why this is the case?

- I use as constraints for the "Hose Rigid" only the LS01 constraint
- for the PF-Cable only the LS06
- but for the Pneumatic Beveled, I use for the start the LS01 and for the guidance the LS02 constraints.

Now I did some experiements with stand alone files, I noticed:
-> I used only the same constraints for each part
-> Each time I press "Execute LSYNTH" I get an additional set of "SYNTH SYNTHESIZED BEGIN/END" statements
-> This a bit inconvenient but does not add to the filesize significantly
BUT
-> When I do a LSYNTH for a piece having different start/end than middle pieces I get havoc.
-> The first of "Execute LSYNTH" is fine
-> each other pass of "Execute LSYNTH" produces thousands of lines with "1 4294967295 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 Unknown"


Do I have some problem in the set-up or why is LSYNTH doing this to me?

Thansk in advance
