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:

Chalkfestival Sarasota 2011
3D Lego Terracotta Army

Hi,

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


Thanks in advance

Hi,

I'm relatively new to making instructions with LPub. I did some small models, but nothing more.
I'm now working on a far bigger project for someone else (it's a Technic model with +/- 2200 parts).

But, I discovered a "problem"; multi-part parts (or whatever they're called) like pf-motors. LPub shows all the different parts from the (in this case) xl motor in the parts list and BOM. How can I avoid this? I just want a normal one-piece motor in the parts list and BOM?

I know it's possible, because I've seen it many times in other instructions.


Thanks in advance!

Somebody have old version of Ldraw? L3P not working with new - it need some files deleted from new version.
LDView much more bad - it can't use LGEO when converting models to POV format and have too little settings.

Hello,

Just started using the tools and the forum. Wanted to model my old Snack Bar (675) and have a nice 3D model of it

Using MLCAD I could find the Snack Bar sign (part 676p01) but couldn't find:
- 973px3c01 Minifig Torso Chef with 6 Buttons, Short Red Neckerchief Pattern / White Arms / Yellow Hands
- 973pb69c01 Minifig Torso Town Blue V-Neck, Pockets and Buttons Pattern / Blue Arms / Yellow Hands
- 3008pb13 Brick 1 x 8 with Red 'SNACK BAR' Pattern
- 3004pb05 Brick 1 x 2 with Ice Cream Pattern

Does someone know if they exist or could be created? By the way, how easy is to create a new part .dat file? I would love creating those!

Thanks,
Caio

During the AIOI, PovRay is installed and a post-install patch gets applied to povray.ini and pvengine.ini to add the LGEO bits, but to find those files, only the C: drive is searched, even if Povray is installed on another drive (R: in this case).
