  Re: Level B Simplification - LDraw Boxer
 
(...) Looking through the /B directory I have a suggestion. Why not simplify further by using box4.dat instead of box.dat? -Orion (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: LDraw in the Classroom?
 
Hi Tonya - Thanks for the reply! I'm interested in learning more about your programs. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to pay much attention right now. Later this year I will be exploring LDraw in the classroom in greater depth. I've gotten some (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.edu)
 
  Re: Download parts automatically with your preferred modeller?
 
Hi Willy - (...) Yes, getting started can be difficult for some new users. We've tried to put up clear instructions, but some still struggle with that. There should be a solution - but there's other issues at play too. See below. (...) This is a (...)

  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
Hi Darrell - Sorry I haven't been of much help via email. This is good discussion, but since I'm not a programmer, I can't be of that much value right now. I've got a few suggestions, though. (...) I suggest testing the parts converted using L3Lab (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
(...) You can already do that with many commercial CAD program by exporting to STL format and use STL2DAT converter. (URL) STL format is an industry standard for rapid prototyping machine. In this format, a part is described with triangle facets, (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
(...) Hi Miguel - You bring up a good point. I wonder, Darrell, if you could work with Thomas Baier to possibly have the to-from LDraw format part be free of charge, period? It wouldn't affect his market for cross-advanced 3D format conversions, (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)

  dats for pen elements?
 
Has anyone made dat files for the various pen elements? I've recently used a few in a steam engine model and would like to render instructions... Thanks SteveB (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Drill and Hooklift Truck Renders
 
(...) Thanks! It is good to hear that it resembles a drill in the real world, since it was a collection of features from quite a few. The real danger when building this model in my opinion was that it would end up looking like a ray gun or (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Drill and Hooklift Truck Renders
 
(...) I had a lot longer to tweak the settings though! (...) It is one of those arty things, the clouds and ground, as they were actually taken from a photo of the real truck. The clouds were added post render as a layer behind the truck, and the (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
That's cool and all, but $85 to convert files to freeware is a bit steep. I've been tinkering with some maxscript to allow dat import/export from Gmax which is a freeware "game" tool. Gmax is basically a watered down version of 3DS Max. It's free (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Download parts automatically with your preferred modeller?
 
hi folks, after ages I've got a new computer (waiting three days 'til my radiocity got rendered has become unbearable ;-) and reinstalled all my favourite lego-cad-progs. as usual it was a painstaking process: unzip the original ldraw-package, the (...)

  Re: Drill and Hooklift Truck Renders
 
(...) Wow. I don't think I'll try anything too ambitious with my creaky old Powerbook then! (180Mhz, 48MB, and the faster of my computers) Joking aside, those renders are quite superb Jen. The drill was fun to see - my Dad has a blue cordless that (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.technic)

  Re: Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
Hi, With all due respect, a big problem that I see here is that 3dWin is a shareware application. Personally, if I do not pay for the likes of Ldraw, MLcad, Lpub, POV or Blender, there is no way I am going to even consider paying for a format (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Converting AutoCAD/3D Studio/etc. to .dat with 3DWin
 
Hello all, While this certainly hasn't been a secret, I'm not sure anyone else has noticed: the latest version of TB Software's 3DWin can EXPORT .dat/.ldr files! Theoretically, this means you can now model a part in a commercial 3D CAD application (...) (22 years ago, 21-Feb-03, to lugnet.cad)
