Hello all.

After some correspondence with Willy, I thought I'd post a link to an LGEO update I've been working on, the progress of which I have been posting over at Eurobricks.

Lutz Uhlmann seems to have stopped working on LGEO since about 2008, where a large number of his original parts were updated or fixed. However, there are still a number of parts missing from the LGEO library, as well as a few parts that still need fixing.

I have put together an update that contains some more fixes, a few cosmetic updates, as well as some new parts that I have managed to create by either adapting existing parts or (and this took a little while to get my head around) creating parts from scratch.

Although some of my new parts are not perfect, they look good enough when not rendered close up, so I'm happy with them for the time being.

The zip file contains all the relevant files required, and a PDF document of instructions on how to install them.

The current total for the parts pack, as of 2012-08-30, is:

- New parts: 37
- Updated parts: 2
- Fixed parts: 12

Incidentally, I've started work on a POV-Ray rendering guide on the LDraw.org wiki, and will publish that properly when it's finished. It'll be based on the Eurobricks guide, but with some tweaks.

I've posted instructions for a series of 26 different models built with a few small Creator sets: http://www.flickr.com/photos/anoved/sets...314213222/

Here are direct links to a few of my favorites:



I plan to post the LDraw files for each model as well, perhaps as replies here, but will do so at a later date.

These were produced as part of a half-baked plan to set up an alternate-model-instructions shop called "Brick Blueprints". I am a better builder than businessperson, though, so I decided to scrap the project (at least in its present form) and just share the MOCs.

Guys,

could a good soul please transfer the Converting LDD parts to LDraw tutorial to the LDraw Wiki and bring it up-to-date?

Thx, w.

This part has two versions, an open stud one and a closed stud one. Only the open stud one is existing.
BL and peeron only list one version, but the pics on peeron show two.
Here another picture of the closed stud version from ebay.

So can anyone make this one?

Hello to all! I've been using LDraw for seven years and have designed both LEGO and "non-LEGO" parts alike. My portfolio can be seen here. To note, some parts are my own custom design and therefore not true LEGO, though I made the effort to fit them within the LEGO spirit and theme. I hope you like!

I am interested in connecting personally with those who share my interest in design as well as POV-Ray; my LinkedIn profile is here.

Hi Guys!

I'm looking since a while for this modern boat hull brick. Its used in the Black Pearl (4185) and also - in a different color for the Queen Anne's Revenge (4195) & Sailship (10210)

In the booklet its labeled as 4640684, at brick-stores the part is comon labeled as 64645.
Its a key part, and essential for the new way of building LEGO ships. It would be great if someone kind could make it. =)

It appears that part 91049 has not yet been created. I was wondering if anyone could help me out by creating it or simply pointing me to where I missed it

Thanks in advance

Currently I am working on an app that uses much the OMR Spec.

So I need to fully understand it.

I have a problem with the following content:

An updated version of the LDraw All-In-One-Installer, in short AIOI, has been released. It comes with:

• LDraw Parts Library update 2012-02
  
• MLCad.ini 2012-02, which has two new categories:
  Headwear accessories such as goggles and visors and hipwear such as the Armour SW Clone Trooper Tasset.
  Both are currently supported only by LeoCAD.
  
• SR 3D Builder 0.7.3.12 (unregistered)
  
• LeoCAD 0.78 - 6152
