Quote:Line Termination

All lines in the file must use the standard DOS/Windows line termination of <CR><LF> (carriage return/line feed). The last two bytes of the file must be <CR><LF>. (In other words, there must be a <CR><LF> line terminator at the end of the last line in the file.)

Quote:It is recommended that all LDraw-compliant programs also be capable of reading files with the standard Unix line termination of <LF> (line feed).

Chris,

I'd like to see "Canvas" added to the !CATEGORY list.

Thx,

Chris,

there are just 4 NonCA parts left. What is their status and when can we expect to get rid off them?

Does anyone know which brown to use for the belt? No brown color I tried fits. How about using custom colors in LDraw files?

The peeron server that hosts the LDraw Parts Tracker is out of disc space. As yet I don't know whether this is something to do with LDraw or the high level of peeron activity we have seen recently.

For now I have suspended access to the Parts Tracker to avoid submit and review failures.

I'll post here when things are fixed.

When I tried to make airplane, I found this part was missing until now.

I hope this part would be released as soon as possible.

Thanks for reading.

Hi folks,

I just updated the MLCad.ini file accordingly to the latest LDraw.org parts
update 2012-01. The .ini file defines (among other things) the parts available
in MLCad's minifigure generator.

Download the file from my website: http://www.holly-wood.it/mlcad/ini-en.html

A direct download is available at: http://www.holly-wood.it/files/mlcad/MLCad.ini

Bye, w.

Folks,

we still have tons of parts we've got from the LU team awaiting cleanse:

please take a look and don't forget to check the PT before working them. The list at the wiki looks a bit outdated.

Quote:The sticker is a 0.25 LDU thin box (or whatever shape sticker is in), oriented such that the top face is at -0.25 Y and parallel with the X-Z plane. The pattern is on the top face; the other (five) sides of the box correspond to main background colour of the sticker pattern (i.e. the predominant colour of the pattern at its edges). If there isn't a predominant colour at the edges of the sticker, the actual colour of the sticker material should be used instead (usually white).

Quote:The sticker is a 0.25 LDU thin box (or whatever shape sticker is in), without any linetypes 2 (edgelines) and coloured with main color 16. The sticker is oriented such that the top face is at -0.25 Y and parallel with the X-Z plane. The pattern with the hardcoded colours is on the top face.

Quote:The sticker pattern is modelled by real colour; they are not modifiable from the outside. All printed colour of the pattern must be matched. Mimicking a colour by blending in the background colour of the part underneath using colour 16 is not allowed. Colour 16 is exclusively allowed for a transparent portion of the pattern, so that the sticker can be attached to any color parts and still blend in. Since edges are forbidden in sticker parts, colour 24 is not allowed.

How are we going to name Hero Factory specialized parts? Previous equivallent range was named "Technic Bionicle", but it's now a bit wrong... Maybe "Technic Figure"?
Case in point is http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cg.../92218.dat. To make things worse, this particular part is not truly "Technic"...
