LeoCAD - Rendered file without saving - Jake A. - 2015-12-23

I'm new to LeoCAD, and today I have rendered a few minifigures but never saved them. I wish to go back and edit them but I can't because LeoCAD can't open .3ds files. Is there a way I can convert them back to:
  • .lcd
  • .ldr
  • .dat or
  • .mpd
so I can edit them again?

Thanks

I am afraid you are out of luck and need to rebuild your minifigs in LeoCAD: LeoCAD works with "bricks" made of polygons, when converting to 3ds you lose this structure and only get a soup of polygons from which you can't come back to bricks.

Oh. Thanks for the help anyways.
