I was trying to build this:
http://peeron.com/inv/sets/6336-1?showpic=10452

but, I found out that there was no
http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/3068bpx113
in LDraw parts library.

As I checked, there are only 2 LEGO models, where this part is used and in 2 accessories pack, so it's very rare.

Anyway, does anyone in any chance have that part?

It's a simple part, just a tile with radar scope on it, I thought I could make it myself, but I don't understand, how to use those weird LEGO CAD programs. They are just like made for program developers themselves. But I would appreciate if anybody could give a tutorial, that is not only for LEGO CAD program developers.

The text I entered below doesn't contain any semicolons, but Phorum adds one:

Cross-post from the announcements for discussion and replies:

Quote:Following the establishment of the LDraw Contributor Agreement in 2004 many authors have helped to re-develop the LDraw Parts that we did not have agreement to redistribute. Of the 90 original "Non-CA" files only 24 now remain and all except three have been re-developed, and are sitting in the Parts Tracker awaiting review.

I would like to get these into the next Parts Update to remove the need for this complication in the LDraw library. To help prioritize their review I have added a "Review Summary" page to the LDraw Parts Tracker. This includes the re-worked files and any dependents. It would be good if reviewers could take a look at this and prioritize their activities on these files.

In addition volunteers to re-develop the three remaining parts, would be most welcome.

I found this article. There described way how to convert some parts. For automatic separation this long string to groups of 9 numbers you can use text editor with function of RegEx (I used EmEditor because I had problems with them in Notepad++)
In your program you have to find

I uploaded an upgrade to Phorum 5.3.17. Let me know if there are any issues related or if it fixes any of the bugs we've noted.

Hi,

I'd like to put down a list of the known bugs in the current 3.3 version. Feel free to add:

• If I go to MLCad setting, tab Rendering and choose "Background color" in that color dialog I can not browse through the colors - http://news.lugnet.com/cad/mlcad/?n=2305
  
  
• In some cases I cannot manipulate the rotation matrix because the angle value in the vector field (which I never saw much use of anyhow) is something like -9.223372 * 10^n and MLCad does not understand it. So whenever I try to open up the rotation matrix field I get a dialog saying that the angle should be between -180 and 180 and the field remains disabled. What's worse, the same is for the vector fields and thus I cannot reset the angle! All I can do is reset the matrix manually in LDDP. *Highly* annoying - http://news.lugnet.com/cad/mlcad/?n=2307
  
  
• There is a bug in the generated partslist when using a new color. For example when I use a part with color 81 Metalic_Green it reports as Chrome_Black. See: http://www.binarybricks.nl/test/colorerror.gif Can this be resolved with a change in ldconfig or is a real bug in MLCad 3.30? - http://news.lugnet.com/cad/mlcad/?n=2343
  
  
• File > Scan parts generates a Parts.lst file that breaks long filenames:
  75174p01c01.daAnimal Dragon Oriental w. Chr.Gold Head and Tr.Red Wings (Comp.)
  
  
• Copying a color to the colorbar the statusbar will always show the default color name from 1 - 16.
  
  

Searching for the perfect place to MPD format discussions, I think here is the least inappropriate.

I think the xyz translation of [LHand]:"Hand Hook" and [RHand]:"Hand Hook" should be "0 0 0.4" instead of "0 0.4 0".
But I could be wrong...

Try adding this (before deleting the official "Hand Hook" lines!), I think it's better(?)
"TE Hook" "2531.DAT" 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0.4

Hi,

Could someone explain me all the differences between .ldr and .mpd ?


Thanks in advance for your help,
