Hello, I'm having a little trouble too do some editing in MLCAD (v2.12). Question 1: How too make a bend on a hose, part 79.dat (Technic Ribbed Hose) or 78.dat (complete 120LDU long)? With 79.dat I can put piece by piece and just rotate each new (...) (22 years ago, 14-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I got ambitious and refactored the class which intermediates between DAT format and my geometry model. Now that that is done I can get on with extracting stuff from text dragged in from a text editor, and adding color and other data to dragged (...) (22 years ago, 14-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

How about, instead of specifying an entire curve, to specify the stiffness of each joint and use iterative solving to arrange the elements between endpoints? Adding constraints with other pieces would follow after that. (22 years ago, 13-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Larry, Yes, I'm glad you mentioned string. It is similar to both bands and tubes. I'm not much of a mathematical theoretician, so I'll probably need some help designing the algorithms, but I can code like a madman. Kevin "Larry Pieniazek" (...) (22 years ago, 14-Sep-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

I'm relatively new to the LDRAW CAD world, but am very impressed with all the work that has been done. It is amazing that we have such a huge parts database to work with.
