  Re: Articles on ldraw.org out of date - I can help
 
(...) Strike that. We can add you as an article editor. You simple need to email us with your LDraw User ID. -Orion (17 years ago, 2-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Inline POV code in official parts?
 
(...) The LDraw POV project ((URL) was created with the intention of someday becoming the de-facto, if not the actual, official LDraw compatible POV repository. I'll admit that it has languished for sometime (it's been almost 4 years sine I (...) (17 years ago, 2-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Inline POV code in official parts?
 
(...) It doesn't really gain you much if you are just converting the LDraw parts directly - l3p does that just fine, and fairly fast. The only advantage of a POV-ray library is when you start adding POV-ray specific stuff, eg: replace the curve (...) (17 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Articles on ldraw.org out of date - I can help
 
(...) I'd see it as a side-wiki probably. Move as much content as people are willing to open source across but keep the best articles fixed on ldraw.org. Would mean anyone could edit tutorials etc. but we'd have fixed versions. Tim (not speaking as (...) (17 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
 
  Re: Articles on ldraw.org out of date - I can help
 
(...) Hmm - an ldraw wiki? That's a good idea, and it's not hard. For example you could sign up for a wiki on pbwiki.com (ldraw.pbwiki.com is available) and we can transfer the existing content there and move the links on the existing site to point (...)

  Re: Inline POV code in official parts?
 
Why not make official POV-Ray Lego bricks and skip the whole LDraw to POV-Ray conversion? Use the same names, scale, and coordinates and all you need is a small script to convert the LDraw lines into POV- Ray lines using the same translations. Or (...) (17 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Inline POV code in official parts?
 
(...) More than three years have passed, the only thing that has happened is that the SteerCo and/or the Standard Committee has decided not to allow EmbPOV in the official Parts folder. A vauge discussion on creting yet another folder for Ldraw POV (...) (17 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Hair for female minifigs?
 
(...) Yes, I am very much wanting this too. Creating a female hair using solid objects (how Anton's library works) is a bit daunting. POV-Ray can render meshes, and I have thought of modeling the hair in a real 3d app like modo or Maya and importing (...) (17 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Articles on ldraw.org out of date - I can help
 
(...) Hi William, At the moment I think it's only the webmasters who can edit articles (might be nice to have an ldraw wiki one day but...) so if you email us (webmaster@ldraw.org) with a list of things you've noticed and/or suggested improvements (...)

  Articles on ldraw.org out of date - I can help
 
I was looking through some of the articles on ldraw.org and found some to be out of date or to have errors. I'd be happy to help clean this up but I don't know what the process is to get access or to submit changes...? For example (URL) has a long (...)

  Hair for female minifigs?
 
Hello, I would like to make some CGI brick films and have run into a problem with finding hair for the female characters. The only parts I know of for female characters are the shoulder-length hair and the hair with pigtails. Has anyone made an (...) (17 years ago, 1-May-07, to lugnet.cad)

  Re: LDD Model of GG-1 Electric Locomotive - Advice Requested
 
(...) NOW you tell me :-) Actually I managed to get it built, but it wasn't easy. (...) That doesn't seem to help, as I did a fresh install of the program last night just for this - my wife's Mac didn't have it installed. (...) OK, I will do that (...)

  Re: LDD Model of GG-1 Electric Locomotive - Advice Requested
 
(...) Glad that you ordered the GG1! This isn't the first complaint about instructions generation in LDD, unfortunately. I would suggest trying the different instructions modes (there's one for vehicles, buildings, and Technic) to see if you have (...) (17 years ago, 30-Apr-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)

  Re: Very hard to find ldconfig.ldr
 
(...) Oooo, no they are not. The one on LDraw.org contains a bottom subsection of newer colors—such as flesh and Maersk blue but not Trans Orange—which are not part of the standard distribution. I had no idea there were official color codes for (...) (17 years ago, 28-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
 
  LDD 2.0 - Inventory of a MOC
 
Hi, Once I create a moc in LDD 2.0 (or open elseone's moc) how do I get the list of the parts? Also, can I "Try to Build it" on peeron? (I understand that if the LDD->LDraw conversion was working fine I could "kill these two rabbits at once".) (...) (17 years ago, 27-Apr-07, to lugnet.cad.ldd)
 
  LDD PRR T1 #6110
 
For my next LDD MOC, I built a PRR T1 #6110 (4-4-4-4 duplex-drive steam locomotive). I've uploaded it to the Lego® Factory, so once it is approved you can take a closer look. My new BBB wheels arrived in the mail today, so this may be the one that I (...) (17 years ago, 27-Apr-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.cad.ldd, FTX)
