  Why so much delay in RSS feeds?
Posted by: Philippe Hurbain - 2011-11-08, 18:32 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (3)

The RSS feed seems updated pretty rarely (eg. I got the message for this post http://forums.ldraw.org/showthread.php?t...38#pid1238 about 7 hours later). It doesn't annoy me that much, but if it's easy to correct without eating too much bandwidth...?

I'll be keeping an up to date list of nominated LSC candidates here using the responses from the nominations thread. Remember there are five positions to fill. If you'd like to self-nominate but don't want to actually self-nominate message me in private with details of your eligibility and I'll see what I can do.

  cannot display nested thread view when not logged in
Posted by: Steffen - 2011-11-04, 8:34 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (2)

Hi,

is there a possibility to see a thread with all its posts in nested form for not not-logged-in users?

I know this feature when being logged in,
but I wanted to send a link to a not-logged-in user,
pointing him to a thread, and all I managed to do was sending him a link
to the first post. This made it very difficult for him to catch up / understand
the discussion. Better would have been a link which directly displays a whole thread
in nested form, like it is possible when logged in.

Can we do something on the server to enable this feature also for not logged-in users?

  New LDraw viewer for iOS and Beta test.
Posted by: Ken Drew - 2011-11-04, 2:45 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - No Replies

I am posting for two reasons. One, to let you know about a new LDraw viewer for the iOS platform called ogld. Second, I'm looking for beta testers.

Hardware requirements are an iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad running iOS version 4.3 or above.

If you would like to participate in the beta test, please respond in kind to [email protected], and I'll send you details on signing up so that you can have access to the app builds.

Thanks in advance,

Ken Drew

  SR 3D Builder 0.6.0.8
Posted by: Sergio Reano - 2011-11-03, 8:53 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (2)

Hi everybody,

finally, after near six month of nothing, a new release of my application is available.
Among its new features:
- Support for simplified racks mechanism (where a rotation axle is coaxial to gear)
- Support for suspensions (still not the spring)
- Support for Linear Actuators
- The Animation Console that allows you to create a console with your model animations starting points and
animating it in a 'real way'
- Support for reciprocal animation referred to a block to be considered fixed

Don't miss some latest videos:

Available from a new website: http://sr3dbuilder.altervista.org/ so, please, update your bookmarks.

  Bricksmith 2.5.1: Little Goodies
Posted by: Allen Smith - 2011-11-03, 4:45 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (2)

[Image: icon32.png]

Bricksmith 2.5.1 adds the following features:

  • Show 3D coordinates while hovering mouse
  • Show All command
  • Automatically zooms to fit when opening a file

It also fixes the following bugs:
  • Fixed hang when deleting parts by dragging them out of the window
  • Fixed parsing problems when opening files which do not terminate with 0 FILE
  • Disallow the insertion of circular submodel references
  • Fixed bug in which newly-opened document windows did not automatically become the main window
  • Fixed unexpected viewing angle reset when inserting parts during step display mode
  • Undo works when the Part Browser and Rotate panels are open

Bricksmith 2.5.1 includes a potpourri of bug fixes and small requested features for your enjoyment. It also includes significant under-the-hood changes. Let me know if you find any new bugs.

Bricksmith requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later, and may be download it at <http://bricksmith.sourceforge.net/>. It is still both Intel and PowerPC native. I have not run into any problems on Lion either.

Sincerely,
Allen Smith

  OMR compliant examples
Posted by: Willy Tschager - 2011-11-02, 15:37 - Forum: Official Models - Replies (26)

Hi,

I'd like to include some official sets in the next AIOI release. I therefore created to example files compliant to the Official Model Repository (OMR) Specification Version 1.0.0. I would appreciate if someone could cross check the work I've done. Thx,

w.

PS. Strangely these files won't work in LPub refusing to create BIs for the subfiles.

  Bug? General forum doesn't get red New posts notification
Posted by: Travis Cobbs - 2011-11-01, 21:48 - Forum: Website Suggestions/Requests/Discussion - Replies (4)

As far as I can tell, posts to the "General LDraw.org Discussion" forum don't produce the red "n New Posts" text in the main forum view. I don't think I've ever even looked in that forum due to the fact that I only click on forums that have the new posts message. When I looked today, I saw 9 threads, all of which were in bold (indicating I haven't viewed them).
