 | | New way to make Ldraw parts?
|
|
Has anyone looked into using Blender to create new Ldraw parts? There is a script that reads Dat to Blender (URL), so perhaps it wouldn't be so hard to flip the script? I'm a programming noob, so I may be off base there. As I understand it, Mlcad or (...) (21 years ago, 7-Sep-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.cad, FTX)

Janey, Just awesome! Now you just need to add Step 2, then Step 3 and . . . Be careful this doesn't spiral out of control and you end up turning into "The Enigma", that puzzle piece guy from the Jim Rose Circus Sideshow! But if you do, promise us (...) (21 years ago, 7-Sep-05, to lugnet.general)

Simply amazing. How did you handle the helix? Is there any interior? I love how all your projects deal with "nonstandard" part connections to make curved shapes. Your animal folder is particularly inspiring and fun. Great work! Darrell (21 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.town, FTX)

That's too bad E. I know how it is though. Many of projects sit on my bench, and I wonder if I'll ever work on them again. Usually they are dissassembled. I'll light a candle for Mana Cat.
