Hello all.
After some correspondence with Willy, I thought I'd post a link to an LGEO update I've been working on, the progress of which I have been posting over at Eurobricks.
Lutz Uhlmann seems to have stopped working on LGEO since about 2008, where a large number of his original parts were updated or fixed. However, there are still a number of parts missing from the LGEO library, as well as a few parts that still need fixing.
I have put together an update that contains some more fixes, a few cosmetic updates, as well as some new parts that I have managed to create by either adapting existing parts or (and this took a little while to get my head around) creating parts from scratch.
Although some of my new parts are not perfect, they look good enough when not rendered close up, so I'm happy with them for the time being.
The zip file contains all the relevant files required, and a PDF document of instructions on how to install them.
The current total for the parts pack, as of 2012-08-30, is:
- New parts: 37
- Updated parts: 2
- Fixed parts: 12
Download: LGEO-Update.zip
Incidentally, I've started work on a POV-Ray rendering guide on the LDraw.org wiki, and will publish that properly when it's finished. It'll be based on the Eurobricks guide, but with some tweaks.
