Thumbs Up 3741 Plant Flower Stem
Posted by: Christoph Mierowski - 2013-12-20, 18:25 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (4)

This is not directly a part request- more a request for a clarification of this issue:

I find 3741 Plant Flower Stem as 3741A.DAT, but no 3741B.DAT or so in the library. There is also no other version existing in real life. And there is 3741.DAT which seems to be obsolete (it also in the part name). But why is this obsolete part still existing?
And in all models where I used 3741.DAT this remains this version. But I think when there is only one real life version this should be used.
Short: Shouldn't  the obsolete shape replaced with the actual one?. This would mean deleting 3741.DAT and renaming 3741A.DAT to 3741.DAT.
Why has this not happend? Is there a good reason?
When modeling official sets, should then always the 3741A.DAT be used?

Hope this can cleared up

Guys,

I'm looking for this kind of screenshot:

[Image: 6-php53-notepad-as-admin.jpg]

on a Win 7 machine. The shot should also comprise the start button. Ideal would be if you've got running a Win 7 Enterprise in order to have also a German and Italian version of the screenshot.

Thx, w.

  LDPatternCreator - Release 1.5.3
Posted by: Nils Schmidt - 2013-12-17, 12:22 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - No Replies

Hello,

Here is an overall faster and more precise LPC release Big Grin
If you are already using a version greater than 1.5.0 you can simply update your installation by clicking on "Help -> Install Updates" and choose "Yes".

Change log:

New features:

  • The projection quality is improved.
  • Improved performance of the projection matrix calculation.
  • Improved performance in "Add Vertex" mode.
Fixed bugs from 1.5.2 and older:
  • Fixed a bug that displays the wrong version number.

As always, I included a short readme.htm in the installation directory.


Cheers & Leg Godt


Nils

  54200 Shape modification - Request and proposal
Posted by: Arthur Sigg - 2013-12-16, 17:59 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (1)

Hi at all,

I know there are bigger fish to fry, but I would ask to modify the part geometry of 54200, if anyone considers this to be relevant enough: Slightly rounded edges and remarkable rounded upper two corners, if that would steel not too much of your rar and worthful time.

50746 is declared as an Alias of 54200 with the following remark: 54200 is used for moulding opaque parts, 50746 for transparent parts. Following Brickset's Parts Browser I can see no such affiliation for older (no more manufactured) parts, also 50746 had opaque surfaces.

Thanks,
Arthur

  Brick problems
Posted by: Max Martin Richter - 2013-12-15, 20:25 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (3)

Hej everybody,
the things getting more and more complex...Therefore I'll write a list for the different brick versions.

  • 2x2 Brick
    - without DesignID: thick sidewalls. (Interesting detail: there is a variable number in one the the inner anti studs)
    - with DesignID 3003: like the version without DesignID OR with thin sidewalls + thickening
  • 2x3 Brick
    - without DesignID:thick sidewalls
    - with DesignID 3002: thin sidewalls + thickening + reinforcements for each underside stud
  • 2x4 Brick
    - without DesignID: thick sidewalls OR thin sidewalls + thickening + all three underside studs have a 2.4 mm depth slot
    - with DesignID 3001: thin sidewalls + thickening + reinforcement for the underside stud in brick center
  • 2x6 Brick
    - with DesignID 2456: thick sidewalls + reinforcements for the 2nd and 4th underside stud
    - with DesignID 44237: thin sidewalls + thickening + reinforcements for the 2nd and 4th underside stud
  • 2x8 Brick
    - without DesignID: thick sidewalls + reinforcements for the 2nd, 4th and 6th underside stud
    - with DesignID 3007: like the version without DesignID
    - with DesignID 93888: thin sidewalls + thickening + reinforcements for the 2nd, 4th and 6th underside stud
  • 2x10 Brick
    - without DesignID: thick sidewalls + reinforcements for the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th underside stud
    - with DesignID 3006: like the version without DesignID
    - with DesignID 92538: thin sidewalls + thickening + reinforcements for the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th underside stud

I would like to continue this list with the 4 wide and 8 wide bricks, but I only own 4x6 and 4x12 (2356 and 4202). Therefore I would happily add these information, when I got them from someone else.

/Max
