Hi,

At the moment, there is only one style cloth like 522.DAT



This part is very useful for minifigure.

But when I assembled 10211 Grand Emporium, I found that some variation of this part was needed like below.



I hope someone might have a plan for this part.

64951.DAT is a variation of 4424.DAT with axle hole.
But it is not released yet as even unofficial LDraw part.

Please, any able man do something for this part.

Following up with the previous topic, I would like to propose that DOS-style CRLF line-endings be officially specified as the standard output format for LDraw editors.

While I personally believe that DOS line endings are the most ridiculous line endings known to man, they're the de facto standard in LDraw and I don't think that should change. I agree with the idea to put them in the specification as a help to any future software author.

As to the input format, I believe software must support DOS line endings, and should support all line endings.

Thoughts?

Hi,

in prospect of the recent events the LDraw Steering Committee (SteerCo) has elaborated a guideline for those authors who wanna quit their PT authorship:

1. The Part Author (PA) wishing to quit should submit their intention to the Part Tracker Administration (PTAdmin) in writing via email to <parts-AT-ldraw.org>.
   
2. Following this, access rights to the Part Tracker (PT) will be removed in a timely fashion.
   
3. The PTAdmin will keep a record of the signed Contributor Agreement (CA) of the person quitting.
   
4. As the quitting PA's parts (the parts) were submitted under the terms of the CA, and thus the "copyleft" Creative Commons license, all parts submitted up to that point will be left where they are, whether that be as part of the published library, or in some state on the PT.
   
5. No changes will be made to the parts that would undermine the existing terms of the CA and associated license.
   
6. All the parts remaining on the PT will be immediately considered open for editing by anyone, under the usual provisions of the CA and associated license. Any existing reviews will be left as is.
   
7. If the PA wishes to reattain part authorship, they must apply as a new author, including signing a new CA.
   

Rectifier (now verion 1.7) has been updated to manage direct color (code courtesy of Nils Schmidt). This version also prevents creation of quads with too flat angles (see this).

Intersector (now version 1.4) uses dynamic memory allocation to manage bigger files. I corrected a bug that caused triangles to disappear. Unfortunately another bug remains, I have not found the root cause but when this occurs the message "*** problem during retriangulation ***" is displayed. Prescaling may help in this case.

Is somebody working on that? Because I saw a reserved Part Number for this.

If not, I have the template ready and could do it in the next few days.

Hi, first of all, I have to say that I'm not sure if this is the correct place to ask this, but it's the best I've found, so tell me if you think of a better place, please!

I'm trying to make a simulator for the NXT Mindstorms and I'm using the .lxf and .ldr files generated by Lego Digital Designer... but when I use "RIM WIDE W/CROSS 30x20" and export to the .ldr file format it's not present! In fact, if I make a model with only one rim I get this when I export the .ldr file:

test.ldr Wrote:0 test

Can some site admin please check if the user rights configuration of the forums is o.k.?:
I just noticed that the "Attach a file..." link only seems to be shown
in public forums, but not when you're replying in a closed forum,
I think that's an error.
For example, when I wrote this post:
http://forums.ldraw.org/showthread.php?t...98#pid3998
I noticed that the link wasn't there.
It also isn't shown when I hit "edit" to edit that post.
