I'm using OpenGL for LDForge's renderer and I'm about stumped on to decide when to draw conditional lines. Actually rendering the part is no problem but how does a GL renderer take the control points into account?

For compiling objects glGenLists/glNewList/... is used and glCallList for drawing them. While it's not the most optimized approach, it works for something as simple as a single part.. at least for the simple ones. I've been considering using VBOs though.

Hi there,

I'm currently trying to make a set of instructions for some Lego models I have created in MLCad. I would like to format them so that parts that were added in a previous step are differentiated from the new parts (preferably by making the older parts lighter while the newer ones are in full colour). Is there a way to do this in LPub or MLCad, or is there a better software solution to fit my needs?

Thanks for your time!

Hello, there are a couple of part that are not avaiable:

Part 75937 looks very similar to 30033, it could be aliased. It seems they differ in the width of the arms. It looks like the missing part is the new version of the avaiable one.

Part 92220 looks new to me, but it's an interesting part, it's used in many 2012/2013 sets.

many thanks

Hi! I'm new here, so I hope it's not too rude of me to request a part. I need the powdered wig from CMF Series 10's Revolutionary Soldier for a set of instructions I'm working on - could anyone help? Thanks!

Hi all,

I've been working on and off on the next LDCad version, when released I also want to make some video tutorials so I started playing with some screen cap software.

A test clip is here:

This one also demonstrates the new nested editing feature. (it's not completely done yet, comments are welcome )

My main question with this clip is are there particular things people would like to see in an example/tutorial video ?

Morning,
Has anyone has an idea about the part name of the small back bucket of the Technic Mini Backhoe Loader (set 42004).
I checked the official and unofficial list but coulden't find the part. This is strange as I could locate part 30552.dat which is the connecting click-hinge used with the bucket . thanks for your help. mmarc

Is it avaiable? I can't find it in the part tracker

A friend who uses Bricksmith sent me a mpd, that I returned him after some changes using MLCad. After that, Bricksmith complained that "submodels are not available". A check of MPD before and after my changes, showed that there was a capitalization issue.
Here is the header of one submodel:

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone would like to make part 64699? Of course in unfolded state.


Thanks in advance
