  LDView 4.2 Beta 1 locking up my computer
Posted by: Michael Horvath - 2013-10-22, 20:34 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (9)

LDView locked up my computer three times in a row when viewing the attached model. I had to reboot each time. This only started happening today.

Maybe my video card is dying. I'm going to try blowing the dust out of my case.

  SR 3D Builder - mysterious error
Posted by: Michael Horvath - 2013-10-21, 23:29 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (8)

I got an error in SR 3D Builder that is a bit mysterious to me. It says:

Found 1 parts duplicated in the model file. These parts need to be removed to load selected model. Proceed?

My problem with it is that it provides little feedback. Which part is being removed? Which is the other part? Why can't it continue?

This is very vague.

[edit]

Also, the model I am working on (Datsville) has 170,000 parts. I do not want to click through every one of these errors.

  How to turn off LDView's Explorer thumbnail previews?
Posted by: Michael Horvath - 2013-10-20, 16:05 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (7)

I installed the All-In-One-Installer and it also installed LDView's plugin that shows thumbnails in Windows Explorer. How do I turn just that bit off without uninstalling everything? Thanks.

  LDCad 1.2a (win+linux)
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2013-10-19, 21:24 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (68)

Hello All,

I've found some semi serious bugs in the 1.2 version, so I've decided to release a bugfix only update.

So no new features only bugfixes in this one.


You can also keep an eye on my LDCad youtube channel playlist. It features tutorial and demonstrations, I will try to add clips to it now and then. If you would like something demonstrated etc just ask.


You'll find all available versions at the usual place:
LDCad home page

Any questions and suggestions are welcome.

  Tools capable of editing Datsville?
Posted by: Michael Horvath - 2013-10-19, 18:00 - Forum: General LDraw.org Discussion - Replies (5)

I need another 3D editor besides MLCAD that is capable of editing Datsville. I usually use MLCAD but I need to switch to an overhead angled view since the terrain I created for the town is getting in the way of the frontal and side views which is making things difficult. Any suggestions? I've never tried anything beyond LEdit and MLCAD.

  Split heightfield?
Posted by: Michael Horvath - 2013-10-19, 15:35 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - No Replies

Does anyone know of a good way to split my mesh/model into sections so that I can choose to disable rendering of individual pieces?

I want to split the mesh into 8x8 baseplates instead of the 64x64 original model.

Can anyone tell me why 3DWin fails to properly convert this file to LDR?

It shows up fine in meshlab.

  BrikWars PC game

https://sourceforge.net/projects/brikwars/

Has anyone played this? Is it multiplayer only? Is the terrain destructible?
