  Anything complex I can try? & Heroica bits.
Posted by: Greg Teft - 2012-03-07, 4:44 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (17)

Looking for challenging modelling opportunities such as this big wheel. It would help if it is something from a set I might have or get (Technic/Star Wars), or the LDD mesh is reasonably close.

In the interim If no objections and interest in the parts, I'd like to add the Heroica Die Tiles, and weapons to my personal work queue.

  LPub bug - "don't show this step" and cache
Posted by: Bill Ward - 2012-03-07, 1:51 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - No Replies

In LPub when I hide a step (e.g. after a buffer exchange there's a step with no changes that can be hidden) the subsequent steps get renumbered, and as a result the assembly images are off by one. The workaround is to clear the assembly image cache. Ideally the software could rename the cache files or internally keep track of the shift in step numbers somehow.

  LPub temp files directory
Posted by: Bill Ward - 2012-03-06, 23:19 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - No Replies

Is there any way to control where LPub puts its temp files? I keep my files in Dropbox.com and whenever I run LPub it generates a subfolder with temp files (image caches, etc) which automatically get logged in Dropbox as well, which is a waste of Dropbox quota, and annoys the people with whom the folder is shared. I would like it to put them in C:\TEMP or some such place instead.

  Slowness of LPub on Windows 7
Posted by: Bill Ward - 2012-03-05, 22:51 - Forum: LDraw File Processing and Conversion - Replies (15)

Ever since I was issued a new laptop from work and installed lpub on it, it takes ages to do any kind of render operation. I am guessing there's some security setting in Windows that has to time out every time it invokes the external program to do the render. Anyone know how to fix this?

  Does Bricksmith create temp files?
Posted by: CyberLizard - 2012-03-05, 2:45 - Forum: LDraw Editors and Viewers - Replies (2)

I just lost three hours of work because Bricksmith crashed on me. Does it leave temp files out there that I can use to recover my work?

  Black Falcons Armory Reboot?
Posted by: Erwin Chiu - 2012-03-04, 8:29 - Forum: MOCs (My Own Creations) - Replies (5)

Greetings everyone,

I am the creator of the "Black Falcon Armory", a set of mock-up parts based upon modern military small arms and gear.

[Image: weapondisplay.png][Image: bfanewguns800600.png][Image: allfirearms.png][Image: armory.png]

These were made about six years ago, they are crude but somewhat cool looking; and I had received some emails asked whether those are real parts.

And recently, my interests on LDraw had made a return, and I am thinking to remake those guns at a much higher quality, akin to those real-life custom made counterparts, do you think this is a good idea?

(i.e.:Most of the guns are still available here)

  Old Blue Patterns
Posted by: Tore Eriksson - 2012-03-03, 23:59 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (2)

I've gotten into thinking that the old blue patterns may be better represented with color 272 Dark_Blue, rater than the normally used color 1 Blue, which IMO is way too bright. See attached mpd for comparasing and tell me what you think.
