Rebrickable's Parts Images - Nathan Thom - 2013-04-07 Hi all, For those that don't know me, I am the creator of Rebrickable. I make heavy use of your LDraw library of parts for the images on my site which are rendered via L3P/POV-Ray. I thought you might be interested to know that I've now made all the images available for easy download from the site http://rebrickable.com/downloads Cheers, - Nathan Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images - Tim Gould - 2013-04-07 And for those who haven't checked it out before, Rebrickable is a very cool site. Tim Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images - Magnus Forsberg - 2013-04-08 How is the hi-res logo on the studs created? Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images - Philippe Hurbain - 2013-04-09 LGEO library I guess? Very cool indeed... Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images - Nathan Thom - 2013-04-09 Yes, I use LGEO for the large images only. The small ones don't need it plus I had slight color differences between the parts that used lgeo and the ones that didn't. Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images - Travis Cobbs - 2013-04-09 As far as I know, both LDView and L3P produce stud logo geometry as part of the export process from LDraw to POV-Ray. (The logo is turned off by default.) Additionally, LGEO parts can also themselves optionally include the stud logo. I think I independently created the POV geometry for that myself by hand, but I may have copied the geometry from L3P. (Note: if I copied, I got permission from Lars first.) If you want to see the POV code for it, search for LDXStudLogo in a POV file generated by LDView. Hi-Res stud logo (Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images) - Magnus Forsberg - 2013-04-10 Thanks, I've now found it, but I don't know POV-Ray good enough to translate that into dat-code. I was curious since I recently created this file: http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?s=4481s05 My file is made in LPC, from a screen-dump of the texmap LDView creates, if I turn on "Texture stud". We also have this: http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?s=logo Why is there a difference in the position of the letters, if I compare the two files? Is my version good enough for an eventual "Hi-Res stud.dat"? I think that I maybe should double the height of the logo.

Re: Hi-Res stud logo (Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images) - Michael Heidemann - 2013-04-12 I do not know what you mean by "alternative parts library"? Maybe you refer to the discussion because design-ID and item-ID? Re: Hi-Res stud logo (Re: Rebrickable's Parts Images) - Magnus Forsberg - 2013-04-12 No, I meant Modulex, Plasticant, JC Tchangs Hi-Res parts, Tore's POV-Ray enhanced minifig heads, and maybe many more. Some years ago I prepared a set of files to make all of these parts, but never asked if I were allowed to upload them somewhere. I recently found them again. They've been forgotten on my harddrive. To no good... ;-(
