MPDCenter 2.3.0.0 is out now.
Some nice features are added, based on the wish of the users.
1)
You can create an inventory listing like in LDView, but the pictures will be rendered with LDView.
Edit: added a How to for this feature.
2)
You can convert l3b files that contains groups into a mpd file, where the groups are converted to submodels.
Edit: added a How to for this feature.
3) You can add mpd files into one file, that our current tools can read and show like normal mpd files. This is the main feature of MPDCenter and is now full working. With this feature you can add your collection of models (ldr files and/or mpd files) into one xmpd file. If you open this xmpd file in MLCad you can work on this just as on every other mpd model. If you want to be able to split this xmpd file later into its former mpd/ldr files please be sure not to change the names of the files in the xmpd file.
But you can create new scenes where all your models are in one scene. To be able to give your work to any other LDraw user you also only need one click to import all unofficial files into the xmpd file, so there is never a piece missing.
Enjoy.
