Yes, the lack of undo is a bit nasty. You might also take a look at
LeoCAD, which has recently undergone much more development than MLCad
(which doesnt seem to have been developed at all in about 3/4 years),
but does not natively use the LDraw format. It exports and imports
fine, and builds its peice library from the LDraw library anyway.

Hmm, I'm not sure I want to re-learn my "cadding"
on a new program, but I'll google "leoCAD" and have a look.

peeron.com is a place to look up sets, models and peices. I would
start with looking up ambulance, and hospital, and then seeing which
minifigs the sets listed come with. I turned up
http://peeron.com/inv/sets/6688-1 and
http://peeron.com/inv/sets/606-1.

Oh, I see, that's very clever.   Thanks.


Well the unnofficial list is a help, but you might also want to look
into LeoCAD which has a minifig generator, which will allow you to
choose from a selection of heads, hats, torsos, arms, legs and
accessories. There may not be a red cross, but there may be clearly
identifiable medics.

Actually, MLCad has a minifig generator,
which I've been using.   It doesn't have all the options
as far as different heads, etc.. but I can easily put them in manually.

For an example of Lego stop motion (just so you know what people have
done), google for Lego and Camelot for a Lego rendition of a Monty
Python classic.


Yes, it's great.. isn't it.
Discovered "brick films" a while ago.
Check out the Spiderman2 one if you haven't seen it...  big budget brick
film!

thanks again, Danny!

(...) You can get an updated MLCad.ini file that should support most (all?) of the official minifig parts from here: (URL) (18 years ago, 13-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.gaming)

(...) What it also means is that if you need to tweak something and re-render, you cant kick of LPub and then leave it rendering with little interaction. Being able to save LPub settings is very handy here... (...) Yes, the lack of undo is a bit (...) (18 years ago, 12-Jul-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad, lugnet.gaming)
