Lego mindstorms EV3 - Christine Goutrié - 2013-01-27 Hello, thanks a lot for the ldraw software tool: it's great. Me and my colleaque thinking about writing a book about the new Lego mindstorms EV3 and now I am wondering how long it will take to have the new parts in ldraw? Any guesses? How long does it usually take? Thanks, Christine Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Philippe Hurbain - 2013-01-27 I can tell you that EV3 LDraw parts will be available as soon as the EV3 is released Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Michael Heidemann - 2013-01-27 That can take a while. One of the part authors needs to buy such a set and have to produce the parts. That is for todays parts often a difficult task. The the set you are talking about (31313 I assume) I can not find any inventory so far on the internet. So I would assume it will take some month. But generally that is very difficult question. Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Michael Heidemann - 2013-01-27 Oh, you beat me in answering As I wrote my lines I thought about our NXT parts guru - You Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Christine Goutrié - 2013-01-28 Thanks a lot for your comments, Philippe and Michael. What I understood:I won't take months when the set is released; ) That's great. I am looking forward to it.

But only after release! Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Michael Heidemann - 2013-01-28 Thanks for that! It seems that all NXT parts are new ! So you might be right with your number - 150 new parts/subparts. Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Steffen - 2013-01-28 so you have them ready already...? incredible... great! Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Philippe Hurbain - 2013-01-29 Quote:So you might be right with your number - 150 new parts/subparts.Actually 170 files. But it includes a few ones I already put on PT because the parts are already out, such as the axle 4 with middle stop. And add to that texture images for the stickers... Quote:so you have them ready already...? incredible... great!Actually, no, I don't have them (yet). But it's probably even greater: I got detailed 3D files from LEGO to create the LDraw models. This shows that they do somewhat care about LDraw . And when I said detailed... they were high resolution with all little chamfers everywhere, so I had to rewrite everything to get manageable parts. The size of EV3 brick model itself was about 40MB!!! Overall, it took me about 6 months to rewrite all parts... Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Michael Heidemann - 2013-01-29 That are really great news! TLG knows why they deliver these data to us (you). That is really a good CRM! Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Steffen - 2013-01-29 say them a thank you from us, and another one goes to you, of course, we are eagerly awaiting these to appear on the PT... Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - mrtomcruise - 2013-04-19 Hi! Thanks a lot for the ldraw software tool: it's great. The brand-new Lego Mindstorms EV3 platform is designed to make it easy for adults and children alike to program robots. _____________________________________ plagiarismdetector.net http://www.lib.usm.edu/legacy/plag/whatisplag.php http://definitions.uslegal.com/p/plagiarism/ Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Philippe Hurbain - 2013-08-01 Today is the launch day for EV3 Education (http://www.legoeducation.us/eng/product/ev3_core_set/2578 and http://www.legoeducation.us/eng/product/ev3_expansion_set/2576)... As such, I posted on Parts Tracker all the models of EV3 parts. Note to reviewers: if you find trivial mistakes that you think you can fix easily, please do so! Enjoy! Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Magnus Forsberg - 2013-08-01 Thank you, Amazing work!! Is there something special you want us too look for, keywords ? How many new files? I've found 90+16 (parts/subparts). Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Philippe Hurbain - 2013-08-01 Yes, keywords, parts type... Note (following discussions on PT with Max) that I have not put a lot of efforts on sections of parts that can't be seen outside of the assemblies. I prefer to keep things simple there, even at the price of LDraw strict correctness... As for the number of files, I don't know exactly, since out of the initial 170 files evaluation I already submitted a few parts, and the stickers (and panel/shortcuts assemblies) are yet to come since they belong to 31313 set not yet released. Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Santeri Piippo - 2013-08-01 ... that's like 5 full pages full of Philo submits, ohh my. Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Philippe Hurbain - 2013-08-01 Here is a preview of the parts... Attached also the little test file that created this image. It can be used to "pull" all EV3 parts through LDView auto update... Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Max Martin Richter - 2013-08-01 Pheewww... I hope, if I have not forgotten a part, I have reviewed (and partly corrected) your complete upload. Now I only see triangles, quads and lines in my head. :-) /Max Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Philippe Hurbain - 2013-08-02 A big, big thank you for this awesome, fast review! ...now I have to delve into all these reviews Chris, if you aren't on vacancies now, and if it's not a too big work, could you create an "EV3" review page? that would help... Re: Lego mindstorms EV3 - Santeri Piippo - 2013-08-02 I'll tackle more of these parts later on today... I'm a little busy right now. |
