  Mirroring 42938
Posted by: Roland Melkert - 2024-06-07, 1:00 - Forum: Parts Authoring - Replies (1)

I've been trying to figure out the LDCad mirror meta parameters needed for "Car Track 16 x  8 x  2 Curve".

Normally you set a rotation point and rotate the part into its own counter part.

But I'm having problems determining that point as the part seems to be slightly off.

I think it should be half x of the highest point at the arc between the 2 red bricks.

But the two red bricks use different x values (non symmetrical?).

It should probably be close to 172 0 0, but this puts it on 320.956369 0 86 instead of 320 0 086

   

Is this part just not suitable for mirroring or I'm a missing something, thoughts?

  Torso assemblies
Posted by: Orion Pobursky - 2024-06-06, 16:37 - Forum: Official File Specifications/Standards - Replies (8)

I'd like to discuss how were going to handle torso assemblies

Do we want to do Rebrickable style with color 16 torso, hardcoded arms, hardcoded hands? 
Color 16 everything? 
An all color 16 version with cNN versions for the hard coded arms and hands?

I have thoughts but I'd like to hear other opinions first.

P.S. This is happening so the answer of "don't add them" isn't helpful.

This is how I update the LDraw part numbers used on my LEGO Parts Guide at https://brickarchitect.com/parts/

I don't know how long it has been broken, since I haven't updated my dataset since 4/30.

  [Part 2003pb01] Minifigure, Hair Short Layered Mop Top with Lime Streaks Pattern
Posted by: Lewis - 2024-06-05, 6:24 - Forum: Part Requests - Replies (2)

This hairpiece should be available in the instructions app in most of the DREAMZzz sets. I was looking for it since I think it would be a pretty good fit for Mae/Osha from The Acolyte.

  [LDPatternCreator] Release 1.7.5 (triangle auto-completion)
Posted by: Nils Schmidt - 2024-06-03, 20:04 - Forum: Parts Author Tools - Replies (8)

Hey,

this release brings triangle auto-completion. It can speed-up pattern creation once again (Video on YouTube).
Just place a few vertices and click on the "magic stick" icon
.png   magic.png (Size: 1.39 KB / Downloads: 118) .
Then hover with the circle above the vertices. They will be auto-magically triangulated.
You can increase and decrease the "magic circle" size with the cursor keys.
The selection is limited to 25 vertices, otherwise it will not work smoothly.

To test this feature, you could load a finished pattern and delete one colour from the pattern.
Then try to recreate the deleted area with triangle auto-completion by moving the circle over it.
Zooming in/out and adjusting the circle size with the cursor keys helps you during this process.

Please note that it can leave gaps, sice it refuses to create very sharp triangles.
This feature does not yet consider reference lines or the background picture contents.

Download and install the latest LDPatternCreator release directly from sourceforge.net.
Any previous version should be uninstalled first. Your program configuration will be preserved.

Change log:

New feature:

  • Added "Triangle Auto-Completion" which creates triangles over a set of vertices inside a circle. Use the cursor keys to increase or decrease the circle size.

As always, I included a short readme.htm in the installation directory.

Cheers & Leg Godt

Nils

  Wrong orientation?
Posted by: Evert-Jan Boer - 2024-06-02, 12:32 - Forum: Parts Tracker Discussion - Replies (1)

After submitting 3818px3 it looks like the part tracker image is mirrored, but the file itself looks ok?
If there is an error in the file itself, I don't see it at the moment.

Exclamation Search for part 31901
Posted by: Flo - 2024-06-01, 18:08 - Forum: Help - Replies (2)

Hello guys,

I've been looking for the brick 31901 for a long time but I couldn't find one yet, I would need it in Stud.io... I saw on rebrickable that there seems to be this brick here, but I can't find it... Could someone show me where it is/recreate it, because I can't see it using the part tracker function... Here is the rebrickable website with the Ldraw picture: https://rebrickable.com/parts/31901/larg...#rel_parts

I hope for your help, I would be very happy!
Greetings
