Help. I have the latest all in installer installed and running on win7 64. The instructions I have made and edited in lpub I saved the first time arround. Opened the file the following day to find some callout steps in strange places but easily fixed. The worst part is when you try to load up page 112 it gives me this message " Microsft Visual C++ Runtime library" then when you OK it LDview pops up a message "LDView has stopped working", then when you pass that error message it loads up page 112 without the main model but with all the page numbers and step numbers and callout etc. still on the page. So my question is what happen to my main model pic on the pages from 112 to the end?
Also why cant it generate the instructions to pdf?/and stop changing the structure of the pages?
I know its not the computer to lack of power and I have also reinstalled Microsoft visuals.

Hi,

Is anyone working on a part for the Urak-hai helmet (a Lord of the Rings part)?

I've got a nice model of Lurtz here, but would like to create some other Urak-hai figures to make up an army :-)

I have loved working with LDraw, but I have noticed there are not enough rotation points when rotating a part or model.

Example would be when tiling a panel or windscreen or when builing a model with wheels that are built higher in the back.

If there were another rotation point between each of the current rotation angels now it would be great.

Anyone else experienced this need?

Hello, if someone could please work to add these to an upcoming parts list, that would be great. Some of these parts are quite common or older parts. Thank you for taking a look at them.

Anyone know how to use Lpub to publish two steps on one page?


Thanks

Hi, i have a question: are faces considered double sided in parts that are not "BFC certified"?
For example i'm rendering part 6595 and it renders wrong, it's not certified as far as i can see.

Hi all, I'm making good progress implementing flexible parts in my LDCad



But now I'm wondering if I chose the right default orientation (namely positive z direction). I did notice most donor shapes (e.g. 166.dat) use y, but I felt that was 'weird' when I started out, but now I'm wondering if z is really all that great.

So my question to the part modeling experts is what are the considerations for choosing an (internal) base orientation for (flexible) parts.

Also what's a logical part center to use as a default (starting point, center of arc, etc) ?

Any thoughts / pointers would be appreciated.
