Architecture Theme

[Max Martin Richter]

And I was quite sure, that everybody knows about this option.
I use it from the very beginning due to the different grey versions...

Some nice lighting for the "Brandenburger Tor": The first version is the way it often looks at night...

[Christoph Mierowski]

Here a alternate colour version of the Imperial Hotel. The official colour choice is quite off (it seems tan has a abo in architecture).
So I used the rare colour salmon, which represents the real colour best in my opinion.
Mabye salmon is so out of use and was used so rarely they not even considered using it.

21018 United Nations Headquarters

parts: 596
released: 2013

I really like the use of 61485.DAT (Turntable Flat Base 4 x 4) as the round thing in front of the secretary building. Im not sure what exact this should be in real live. A round plaza,pool or what - there are thousand of images of this building on the internet, but I didnt't found one of this. Only google earth showed it and I am still wondering what it is...

The US president home and work place.

Parts: 325
Released: 2012

Too sad that the roof of the original building burned down and had to be rebuild.

[Michael Heidemann]

I also did not know about that or have completely forgotten about that.
Thanks for mentioning

[Michael Heidemann]

I added the unofficial files and put all together in a mpd content file.

[Christoph Mierowski]

I just forget that some people don't have the unoffical files installed. Because my version should be complete- if you have the unoffical files...

21003 Seattle Space Needle

parts: 57
released: 2009

Unofficial part and LSynth should be installed to view this model.
Also should the LSynth files be copied to the unofficial parts folder, if somebody wants to see it completly in LDView. (Maby there ia a other/better way, but this one works)

[Michael Heidemann]

Just make a mpd content file of your file
MPDCenter helps you in this case to pack all necessary files together.

The attached file can be seen by any LDraw user.

By the way - it looks really great!!

21021 Marina Bay Sands

parts: 601 (602 if you count the brick seperator)
released: 2013

the tile with the Marina Bay Sands pattern is missing

[Ignacio Fernandez Galvan]

Isn't it "Solomon" instead of "Soloman"? It doesn't matter much here, but maybe it should be fixed in the official models zip.

Wow, that's... a lot at once!

The new official rules state this:

The user (Model author) uploads the model to the LDraw forum and if there was a public discussion the admin mirrors it to the OMR 7 days (or later) after the last post in this discussion. For the event there hasn't been any discussion the upload should be done 7 days (or later) after the initial post. After the upload is done, the model file shall be deleted, so that the forum doesn't clutter that much.

But maybe an exception can be made (and send them in bulk to me). I mean, it's also a lot of extra work for you to make all those posts. Anyone?

[Damien Roux]

As there is now a OMR site, I have a lot of sets to release.

I will send you a rar file with everything in it.
It's a bit of work yes, but that way, I can display renders and people can comment each model if there is a mistake.

Much more will follow...

[Orion Pobursky]

These are more guidelines than hard and fast rules so it ok to bend them.

Just a little heads up: this file (and a few others which I already added to the OMR website) isn't OMR conform. You need to include all unofficial parts in the .mpd file for it to be 'omr compliant' (which you can do easily with MPDCenter). I've fixed the ones already added to the OMR because I thought you just forgot some, but it seems you're just not doing it at all. Just a tip for future models

[Damien Roux]

I wasn't aware of it. Maybe it's because I've added those parts to my official lirary, so MPDcenter doesn'g show it up.

Anyway, I personally don't like that at all. For several reasons :
I don't like to have anything which is not a part in my models.
I would not be able to use a LGEO equivalent for rendering a part if it is defined like that.
Ldview will simply download the part if it is missing
If the part is changing on the tracker, it will not show up in the model.
Imagine the origin is changing, it quite easy to see and to update. Same if name is changing.
I am 100% sure models will not be updated to remove the inlined part when it will be official.

I can't see any reason to inline the parts in the MPD. Maybe I'm missing something.

I would like my Models to stay like they are. I prefer to remove the OMR compliance, than inlining parts in it. I am almost sure that the onofficial parts are mainly patterns and the model will become automatically compliant when the part will be release. Otherwise it will need to be reworked.
Usually there is not a lot of parts that got renamed or that change origin during their life in the tracker.

If not possible, I would prefer to keep on adding my models at Eurobricks, than in the OMR. That would be a shame because I like ldraw, love the OMR idea and I've started to rework all my sets to make them OMR compliant (at least from my point of view).
