  Re: Multi MPD scenes
 
(...) That is correct MLCad and every other program that I know of currenlty CANNOT use MPDs as sub-models. I think it is an issue with the MPD format itself. How whould MLCad know which MPD or LDR is the MAIN? -AHui LDraw Help Desk (URL) (20 years ago, 14-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGOfactory.com launches... and it's big!
 
(...) Marc (or anyone!) ... I have another technical question regarding these "brick palletes". I've finally managed to get LDD to run ... after about 9 hours of installing service packs and drivers.

  Re: Multi MPD scenes
 
(...) Niels you took my instructions out of content. See below: 2) Export all the .mpd files that you want to use into the MODELS folder 3) Open MLCad and using the “models” tab drop & drag to create your scene.

  Re: Multi MPD scenes
 
(...) MLCad handles (and can edit) MPDs, or are you referring to something else? -Orion (20 years ago, 14-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Multi MPD scenes
 
Hi guys, AFAIK, you still can't acces .mpd's via MLCAd's model "window" as Ahui suggested (although I haven't tried his approach): (...) But there's a neat "export" function in the file menu, where you can export .mpd's as .ldr's to a temp. folder. (...) (20 years ago, 14-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

  Minifig hair and hats
 
Is anyone working on more basic minifig stuff? Seems like every other week there are new patterns available, but not some of the basics like hair and some hats.

  Re: Multi MPD scenes
 
(...) When you say "render" are you refering to in POV-Ray or seeing your models in MLCad? That I know of there is no utility to merge different .mpd files together. What I suggest is the following. 1) Move any and all .ldr,.dat,.mpf files that you (...) (20 years ago, 13-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: 1x16beam's images

  Multi MPD scenes
 
I've looked through the LDraw download list and I can't find anything that seems to do this. Does anyone know of a utility to render multiple mpd files all together in a single "scene"? I know I can export all the parts then import them all into a (...) (20 years ago, 13-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad)

  Keeping track of temporary part numbers
 
Is there any place where we can see temporary part numbers attributed to a part before official release? For example, Technic Liftarm 1 x 4 x 0.5 was called x200, then x137, and now 32449. It would be interesting to keep that information somewhere (...) (20 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
