  Re: Two queries: How-to for loco wheels and which app did this?
 
SNIPPY (...) Hmm. Never thought of that one- probably because I don't have that part (though I do have the 1 x 8 versions of it)- I guess every builder's mind is configured somehow to work within his collection. Although I don't recall John Neal (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Two queries: How-to for loco wheels and which app did this?
 
(...) No, I think he means how do you hold the wheels in place when you have taken them out of the holder. One of the most common techniques as I understand it is to use this piece: [LDrawPart 32028:0] You route the axle through the groove and then (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
 
  Re: Two queries: How-to for loco wheels and which app did this?
 
(...) LOL, this makes me wonder if you've even seen a lego train :-P I did a brickshelf search, and this pic should clarify everything: (URL) metal axle is clearly visible in this pic. By pulling on the flanges of the wheels, the whole assembly (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Reporting on LDView for Mac OS X
 
(...) Yeah, that is probably the source of all my current problems... I believe the Mac OS X LDView is version 1 (Alex Raftis wasn't sure what version of code he started with when he ported it). The current version is 3. I believe it is possible to (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

This may sound stupid, but what does one use to hold the wheels in place? (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Two queries: How-to for loco wheels and which app did this?
 
(...) I think that's done with edge detection in POV or MegaPOV but I'm not sure. You could always ask him (or any other author of images you like). The problem I have with that approach is that parts of the same color blend together. take a look at (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Two queries: How-to for loco wheels and which app did this?
 
(...) Hi Sebastian, Yes, thats correct, it is the 'train wheels 2' sans the *@$$% holder. As for your second question, in MLCAD, the wheels without the holder are just that- wheels without the holder. Whats missing is a metal axle which connects the (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Two queries: How-to for loco wheels and which app did this?
 
I've been tinkering with diesel-electric bogies in MLCAD, and I'm having trouble getting the effect I want; the Train Wheel Holder 9V, while nice for quick and dirty generic bogies, just gets in the way when you're actually trying to do something (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Colours in MLCad/LDView
 
Is it currently possible to change the colors (and edges) used to render ldraw colors in MLCad and LDView? From what i have read on other threads, LDraw includes the LDConfig.ldr but nothing supports/uses it yet. I wanted to change the lovely black (...) (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad)
 
  71427c01update -- needs work?
 
Hello, all. I'd hoped to get this out before leaving on christmas vacation -- I'll be back in front of a computer on Wensday (CET). This is an update for 71427c01, to get rid of the depreciated box3#8p, and BFC. (It also fixes minor things that (...) (20 years ago, 25-Dec-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
