  Re: Lego Cad?
 
Tom, LEGO CAD is a program designed to go with LEGO's Dacta educational line. It is many years old at this point. It now ships on CD-ROM, but the program is unchanged. It fits onto floppies because, like LDraw, it's files are simply lines of text (...) (24 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Lego Cad?
 
Does anyone have any experience with Lego Cad? (URL) is made by (or in conjunction with) Autodesk, so I'm hoping it is similar to AutoCAD, but I'm guessing it's not quite that good if it will fit on a few floppies. I think Virtual legos would be (...) (24 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New ldraw updat?
 
(...) I hope that parts are still posted to lugned.cad.dat.parts as well for review. I think the process of having the lugnet readers review the parts is very valuable for the parts library. That way, various aspects of the parts can be commented, (...) (24 years ago, 15-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New ldraw updat?
 
(...) Agreed - I don't consider myself a designer - just an interpretor of real life parts into LDraw syntax. (...) True - I for one have not stopped authoring, but the time I can give to this varies, depending on other priorities. In addition to (...) (24 years ago, 15-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New ldraw updat?
 
(...) I don't think "part designer" is the correct term. There is nothing special about the people who develop parts -- anybody can do it. It just takes a lot of time and effort; time and effort spent without getting any real compensation for it. (...) (24 years ago, 15-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: New ldraw updat?
 
(...) Not so soon I think. I'm not looking forward to it anyway, since many of our beloved parts-designers are mostly sitting on their hands doing nothing, or doing something else, especially for the last 6 months :( Primus BuS ComStar LEGO (...) (24 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)

Does anyone now when will come out the next update of the dat parts? (24 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: "33" Slope Shocker... Possible name change?
 
(...) Steve, I'm thinking it would be of more use to name the parts using a "Rise/Run" method, like in architecture. When using the LEGO pieces the important thing is not the actual angle on the sloped face, anymore than it is the actual height, (...) (24 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  MSP, MAP, and Mirage Wallpapers
 
(URL) are just some renderings of my large mecha models (which all exceed 1000 pieces). I hope you all like them. BTW I do have something new in the works, which is very large, and will take several days (or probably 1 or 2 more weeks) to finish. (...)

  New Part Variant : 4085C - Plate 1 x 1 with Clip Vertical - Type 3  [DAT]
 
For those of you who want more accuracy in your renditions, I have created the three different versions of this part.

  Re: 727 in 2001 version
 
(...) Cool. Evocative of the original and nicely updated! One nit on the rendering. the shutters don't have 3D louvers. This is a limitation of the LDraw part. There is an unofficial part for the larger (fits the 1x4x3 town window frame) shutter (...) (24 years ago, 13-Apr-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad)
