Hi everyone!
In last months I use LDCad a lot and I can use it quite fast, but I still have some troubles in geometry connections. The first and the main I would like to focus is the isosceles trapezoid. I know there are some tools and tricks, I know how to use the traingle angles to make a closed triangle, but for trapezoid this function does not make any sense. The goal is to connect the pink pins:

Now how can I use the existng functions to do it? Close the triangle to find the middle point? This is the first step I was thinking about...

This connection is very useful in many models with various lenghts. Here is what I need it for:

I'm please to announce the long awaited return of the LEGO Set LDCad PBG Generator. Every single feature from the old generator is not reimplemented but I wanted to get a workable version out there. Also, Rebrickable changed their Minifig Torso numbering which effectively made the cross reference file useless. I do have plans to improve functionality including making an all-in-one unofficial file download for all needed unofficial files.

Here's the link:

Hey, thank you for adding Princess Morbucks' headpiece, but I've noticed you haven't added her torso yet.

Thank you again.

Hello,

I am trying to calculate the individual rotations (Euler angles) around the three axes from the rotation matrix.

I have also tried it with quaternions, but somehow it doesn't work.  

Has anyone tried something like this before and can give me a solution or tips?
Thank you.

Manfred

These would be useful for making stuff.

Hi folks,

I just updated the MLCad.ini file accordingly to the latest LDraw.org parts update 2024-02. The .ini file defines (among other things) the parts available in MLCad's, LEOCad's and Bricksmith's minifigure generator.

Download the file from my website: http://www.holly-wood.it/mlcad/mlcad_ini-en.html

Bye, w.

Part submission is currently disabled until an issue with file headers is figured out.

Thank you for reading.

I desperately need a LDraw file -- even just a crude mock-up -- for this patterned piece, please.
