Hey,

Here comes LPC 1.4.0..


Please uninstall older versions of this software before installing a new version.
Your configuration won't be deleted if you have already version greater than 1.3.1 installed on your machine.

Change log:

New features:

• The spline tool has left the beta stage. Spline vertices are arranged with an equal distance (This feature needs still a bit improvement. I hope to fix it in 1.4.1).
  
• The spline tool was moved to the "Add Primitives.." menu.
  
• Colour changes: Default colour 7 (old-grey) to 71 (light-bluish-grey) and colour 6 (brown) to 70 (reddish brown) [this change will be visible in a fresh installation of this program].
  

• The spline tool is translated (Thanks J.C.)
  
• The triangle chain tool is translated and does not crash anymore
  

Hi all,

With LDCad 1.1 in the beta stage, I'm starting to gather information/ideas for flexible part support (pneumatic hoses etc) in 1.2. I'm mainly thinking about using bezier curves for editing, the generated parts them selves will probably be submodels using official library subparts were available and generated type 2..5 lines for the rest.

I myself have very little experience with LSynth and the likes so if anyone has some different suggestions/ideas?

Hi I needed the vehicle mudgaurd to finish my model and Philippe Hurbain did a bangin job on that part, so I was wondering if he or someone could make the part#4283123 small mudgaurd w detail and 4 studs and the part#4494474 small curve sloped piece w 2 studs. I'm sorry if these are not the formal names for the parts but I don't know where to get the parts list eccept from the Lego manual and I don't see discriptions just numbers. Thanks in advance

Is there a way to draw an arrow in one step and hide it in later steps. Is this done using ghosting and if so how. I just don't grasp the concept of ghosting. any help is greatly appricated.

I'm looking for this part.

It exists in LDD, but I can't use it in MLCAD. Would be great if someone far more knowledgeable than me could help me with the item.

Thanks.

Is there a way in view mode while shuttling through steps can you go to a step in your model then edit it then go back to view mode. For example I create a model using steps. Some of the steps are wrong. I then go through view mode to view my steps. Then I change my steps by going back to edit mode when the faulty step is selected in view mode. Can a user do anything like this. if not will they consider to add this feature in next release. I find myself creating a model making a mistake and having to create it over and over again hoping to make it without mistakes. Any help is greatly appricated. thanks.

Hey,

Here is the fresh LPC 1.3.9 !


Please uninstall older versions of this software before installing a new version.
Your configuration won't be deleted if you have already version greater than 1.3.1 installed on your machine.

Change log:

New features:

• You can use a spline tool for creating spline curves.
  
• You can save your data in a LPC - V1.00 legacy format. This format will be read by all LPC versions, but it does not store all pattern information (e.g. metadata, primitives and groups).
  
• You can switch between the selection of overlapping primitives while CTRL is pressed.
  
• You can zoom with '+' and '-' too.
  
• The zoom textfield shows the zoom dialog with just one click.
  
• The F5/F6 toolboxes are movable.
  
• Overall program stability, compatibility and performance is improved.
  

• The sticker dimensions are not correct.
  
• It is impossible to select a primitive/​group, which is transformed into a straight line.
  

Hi,

all articles belonging to the LDraw.org Official Library Standards section have been transferred to the new CMS.

I would appreciate if someone could browse the articles under:

Home > Documentation > LDraw.org Official Library Standards

and check if there are broken links (internal and external).

Many thx,

Hello all,

I finally finished a version of LDCad 1.1 which is 'beta' worthy imho. So after almost 7 months here's a new (semi) stable version for you to play with. You'll find it at

www.melkert.net/LDCad

Do note, a uninstall of a previous version is highly recommended.

Bigest changes (compared to 1.0, not the alpha's):

• Full support for ortho/2D/flat projection editing.
  
• (unlimited) split edit views.
  
• Beter 'old' OpenGL implementations support (Will even render on 1.1, no more crosses or flickering screen).
  
• Menu/tool bar (i got tired of all the 'where's the menu' comments). It's fully customizable, but do note not all available toobuttons have icons yet.
  
• Rotation center manipulation is now supported.
  
• expert' (manual) rotation, movement and selection center dialogs.
  
• 'Modern windows' friendly installer (setup will install dynamic stuff outside the program files folder). If you don't like this use the archive version or delete the LDCad.cfg file BEFORE you start LDCad for the first time.
  
• A boat load of small stuff (see the changeLog.txt file for all details).
