Feeling ill... looking at this... it's like my chair was pulled out from under me... I have seen many pics of your guys' layouts but, well, wow.

| | Redesigned mini train wheel (!)
|
|
This seems to have slipped by under the radar, but the mini train wheel has been redesigned and improved by LEGO. The old one [1], available in M.O.W. cars, Gringott's Bank, etc., was high friction, and tended to be very squeaky. The new one [2], (...) (21 years ago, 16-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)

I've released a new version of NQC today (3.1r1). (URL) would be most grateful if a few non-Windows platform folks could download the source release and make sure it builds and functions correctly on your favorite platform. I *think* I fixed all the (...) (21 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | Re: Part images through LPub coming out white
|
|
(...) Geoff, The reason that your part images came out white is because you overdrove the ambient and diffuse controls in the lighting section. It is my understanding that ambient+diffuse should be <= 1. You are driving things at 1 + 0.6. This only (...) (21 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Thanks for feedback Yes - the steering definitely is pneumatic, and works quite fine for such a large model. The axel you see coming from rear to front section of loader is the main engine drive shaft. One interesting design approach is that I (...) (21 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Just say no to steroids... This is another fine example of Ranjo Bionicle engineering. The hands rule - maybe the best Bionicle hands I've seen yet. The hoses also give a very mechanorganic feel to the model. If Lego made Bionicle sets like (...) (21 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Great work! I couldn't get the download to work, though, even though I typed in some of the OMR numbers you listed. I also have a comment on the sets 123, 124 and 125. Are those the correct wheels? My own 120 and 125 sets, bought in 1970, had (...) (21 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.cad)
