(...) This doesn't help with rendering. (...) This does, big time. I can use newer versions of official parts that may have better primitive usage. LDView helps with this a little bit better than L3P but I find a self contained MPD more convenient. (15 years ago, 18-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

(...) Considering Bricksmith's seamless support for submodels, I didn't initially see the need for MPD Wizard (my own (URL) Mac MPD Utility> is wonkier and long since obsolete). However, as Allen hints, I realize MPD Wizard does provide a few (...) (15 years ago, 18-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev.mac, FTX)

Does anybody know where I can download Mac Brick CAD, or have a copy they can send to me? I wanted to install it on an older Mac that won't run Bricksmith, but it seems the author's website has been taken offline. Thanks! Isaac Nelson (15 years ago, 3-Feb-09, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac, lugnet.cad)
