  Re: SR 3D Builder 0.4.5.7 RELEASED
 
(...) If that three characters looks like  then it is the BOM for UTF-8. For official DAT-Files it is recommended to use either ASCII or UTF-8 without the BOM (as they are equal in the ASCII range of characters). (URL) this should be changed in (...) (15 years ago, 10-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: SR 3D Builder 0.4.5.7 RELEASED
 
(...) That is probably a "Byte Order Mark", BOM ((URL) which is identifying the file as UTF-8 text. Quote WikiPedida: "While UTF-8 does not have byte order issues, a BOM encoded in UTF-8 may nonetheless be encountered. A UTF-8 BOM is explicitly (...) (15 years ago, 10-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Ok, a couple of hours later, and a few things to mention... Doesn't support MPD files yet, at least not ones that I have that work fine in MLCad. Can't seem to figure out how groups work, if at all. Files that are saved have three unusual (...) (15 years ago, 10-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Brian, I will prepare a simple installable demo that will support multiple Interfaces. I will transfer it soon to the same url of the other demo and source files from my first post. Indeed, this interface is pretty old. But for fixed (...) (15 years ago, 10-Jan-10, to lugnet.dacta)

(...) to it. I've downloaded it, read your documentation and played with it for several hours now. You've got some amazing functionality here, and I am very tempted to switch from MLCad ( my long-time favorite) to your SR 3D Builder. Please, please (...) (15 years ago, 10-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Minifig manipulator?
 
(...) Wow. I hadn't seen that tool before. I didn't get to try out the minifig poser yet, but the connection and rotation features make it something that I'm really going to look into. Thanks! -Andy (15 years ago, 10-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Minifig Extractor/Manipulator?
 
(...) I think my minifig generator for LDDP might be able to be modified to do this. I'll look into it. -Orion (15 years ago, 9-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: LDraw.org Localisation Guideline ratified
 
(...) That was exactly the question that came up in my community when I started a discussion about this. 99% of the people who use LDraw use Bricklink. Only a small percentage of the people who use BL also use LDraw. Consequently it doesn't seem to (...) (15 years ago, 9-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Minifig Extractor/Manipulator?
 
(...) Hmm. I guess you're right. If so, even my LDA is incapable of animate tilting of the minifigs. Got to check that out. How would you suggest the reference to a minifig should look like from its mother objest? /Tore (15 years ago, 9-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Minifig Extractor/Manipulator?
 
(...) No. Absolutely not. For this to be worthwhile, the original positional and rotational data should be retained when extracting the minifig. Consider what would happen if you are extracting a minifig whose hips are not oriented at right angles, (...) (15 years ago, 9-Jan-10, to lugnet.cad)

  Minifig Extractor/Manipulator?
