  Lpub error message "JPEG error #36"
 
Hi Kevin (and anyone else who may be able to help), I was using Lpub 2.2 last night to work on generating instructions for my Crush MOC (see (URL) I was running an initial test using Proof mode, and everything went just fine until it was trying to (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Can anyone help by suggesting some lighting tips?
 
(...) Sorry to take so long to respond. I don't post from work, and was away all evening. But I did see the work you'd done as soon as it was moderated on Brickshelf. Thank you so much for taking the time to help me understand this process. I will (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Minifig Generator Plugin for LDDesignPad Version 1.6
 
(...) Absolutely no reason that I can think of. Unless a program deliberately wanted to have separate settings (or multiple settings). (...) Good point. (...) Or check both places. :) Steve (21 years ago, 28-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  LPub request
 
Kevin, Can modify LPub such that it will open a filename specified on the commandline? This will enable me to call LPub from another program and have the file already open for instuction generation. --Orion (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Announcing new Lego website: The Art of Brick
 
There is a certain art to certain things. There is an art to painting, an art to cooking, yes, even an art to driving. But, did you know that there just might be an art to brick? No, I’m not talking about those heavy blocks that spiders like to hide (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.cad, lugnet.announce, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)

  New Mecha and LDraw File
 
Hi all! I'm back to building with LEGO again. To all the MOC posters, sorry for the lack of replies, but please know that I do check out everything that you build and greatly admire your creations.

(...) Well, looking at the LDraw.ini, it apppears that we could swap over to using it. -Orion (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: portable version of mklist?
 
(...) According to my "Sent Items" folder I sent mklist13.zip including both mklist.c and mklist.exe to you at July 3rd, 2000. On your request I resent it to you on May 14th, 2002. And today I'll send it for the third time :-) /Lars (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Minifig Generator Plugin for LDDesignPad Version 1.6
 
(...) Hey, I'm with you. ldglite checks the environment variables first, then looks in the <windir>/ldraw.ini file before using a default. env_str = platform_getenv("LDRAWDIR"); if (env_str != NULL) strcpy(pathname, env_str); else if (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hi Allan, You can find pictures of your (lovely!) model here: (URL) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: Can anyone help by suggesting some lighting tips?
 
(...) No magic involved here. Best way is to be inspired by real photos. Take a good look at a picture you like (or where you like the lighting) and try to figure out where the light s coming from and where the camera was placed. A rough guide: (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: easy pattern creator?
 
(...) Well, what can one say? You convinced me. Both your ratio and my urge to sometime create an 'official' brick. So, there I went, creating patterns by hand, byte by byte. Sure it was fun, but also took lots of concentration and time. All I did (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LDD Introductions
 
I downloaded LDD immediately at the time, but I didn't get to responding before. My main regret is that the system requirements and program size (download time) are so bloatingly huge. After I dowloaded the whole thing and installed it, I was (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.lego.direct, FTX)
 
  Re: Minifig Generator Plugin for LDDesignPad Version 1.6

  LDraw & POV Parts (was: Re: Questions: 12 volt train track parts)
 
(...) Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I *like* renderings with edgelines. They are very useful for building instructions, but even for non-building instruction images, the edgelines appeal to me. Maybe I've watched too many cartoons in my life. :) I'm (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: Can anyone help by suggesting some lighting tips?
 
(...) Actually, as long as you are rendering your file manually in POV, you can delete all of those command line options. There're really only used by LPub with it's generating instruction images and LPub will add them back in automatically. -Orion (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
 
  Re: Feature Suggestion
 
(...) What I have done sometimes with an assembly of parts I use often is "hand" make the model in MLCAD and save it in the Models folder. When I want to use it in another model, I select Multipart>Import Model and choose the pre-made model. HTH, (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
