(...) Actually, from my fooling around with the software so far, I can say that there is some compatability between LDD 1,6 and LDD 2,0. When you try to load a file created with version 1,6 with version 2,0 it asks you if you want to try to import (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

(...) Okay, there's a little more to it than this. If you have a display that supports greyscales, it can control the level of the voltage jolt that's applied to each pixel during the actual refresh cycle. That way you get a smoother display with (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking, FTX)

(...) lol. I just look up the dimensions of these things and they're restricted to 2.5m wide including mirrors. 8 wide is about 0.8 studs to the foot for US trains (IIRC) so 7/0.8=2.66m so you're right. I thought these things were bigger. They sure (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

|

This is a little project Ross began last year that I never got around to documenting. He was tinkering as usual, and figured out a way to lay the old 4.5 volt battery train rails 3 studs apart and make a complete loop. Here is a pic of just a curve: (...)

(...) Very nice, but let's be honest here-- it may be six-wide, but it is 8 wide scale:-) And its 6 wide containers would look spiffy on (URL) this>:-d (hmmm, intermooodal:-d) JOHN (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.town, FTX)

| | Conversion file for ldraw to ldd

Hi all, I've converted the old conversion file from LDD 1.6 (with Jason Railton's adaptions) to LDD 2.0 format. It is far from perfect but is also far better than what is currently available. To install it just quit LDD 2, go to (...) (18 years ago, 22-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)

In the second instance (and I've tried this) you'd be surprised to see that the difference in shades between the two greys is actually very small. You really need (...)
